Display FREE, not $0.00

Version 2.8 ... what would be the recommended way to display a $0.00 price as FREE, everywhere on the site?  I'd like to change the least code possible to make this happen, without negative side-effects.

Have you considered using the download sample for free products?

No, how would I do that?  Would it display as FREE?

Are your free products downloadable?

In this one case, yes.

In admin area you can navigate to:

Configuration  > Languages

Filter value equal to
Download Sample

Resource Name

products.downloadsample


And edit the value accordingly. :-)

That would work for downloadable products that are free.

Maybe a work item would be suitable for freebies?


Using Download Sample and changing the button text value to free - does the product still show $0.00?



I'm guessing you would want to select 'mark product as free' option in product administration.

<span class="price equals zero">@Model.ProductPrice.Free?

Hi

This is how I have done it, I changed the _ProductBox view with the following

               @{
                    var cnt = 1;
                    var price = Model.ProductPrice.Price;
                    if (price.Contains("From"))
                    {
                        cnt = 6;
                    }
                    price = price.Remove(0, cnt);  
                  }
                   @if (decimal.Parse(price) > 0)
                    {
                        <span class="price actual-price">@Model.ProductPrice.Price</span>
                    }
            else
            {
                <div>@T("Product.NoChargeText")</div>          
            }

No very elegant but it works

Sorry, nevermind
