Is it possible to add a pane to the shopping cart that allows you to get discount quotes (such as how the shipping quotes pane works there now)? This would be a great addition, as it would allow users to adjust the quantity of the products in their cart and then preview the appropriate discounts.

Since you can't change the quantity of items to purchase at checkout (you have to go back to the shopping cart), this would be very handy.

A related suggestion: how about providing an admin option to show (or hide) available codeless discount descriptions in this shopping cart pane? That way you could display something like "buy 5 or more of Product X, and get 10% off" -- that way the customer is encouraged to buy a few more to get the deal.

I initially looked into getting the cart pane working for this module. I can't remember what I was having trouble with but I'll give it another go. As for the codeless discounts in the cart pane, I will make a checkbox inside the codeless discounts module for showing these in the cart pane (assuming I get the cart pane working, that is).

The following is available in beta 14:

1. Discounts are now shown on the cart page underneath the current subtotal along with an updated subtotal including discounts. This is part of the base uc_discounts module.

2. To show the discounted price in the product page there is a new sub module, product_price_alterer_field. When this field is added to products it strikes (using ) the current price and adds the discounted price in red (in product_price_alterer_field.css, use CSS to change). The discounted price shows up only if there are discounts that are codeless and would be qualified for if the user checked out with 1 or less of the current product). See README.txt for installation information.

These new features require testing. Please download beta 14 and test it out.

For part 2, I think it is a good idea to have an option to show or hide codeless discounts. I will look into how to do this. Can you please open a new issue for this? Thanks.

jrust requested this as well and made a generous donation so I wanted to get this out as quickly as I could. There is still more work to do and then interface may change some. You can track the discussion here: http://drupal.org/node/432910.
