A few weeks ago we were scratching our heads in confusion on how to get the lowest tier-price from magento. If you take a look at your catalog>product>view>tierprices.phtml you will see why – why does such a complicated section of code even exist?

Anyway after a few failed attempts we were contacted this morning by Christiaan who asked us this question a few weeks ago on the magento forums. We took this as a challenge and set to work this very morning sorting it out.

After a few black coffees we finally figured it out…or at least got rid of the rubbish that was concealing it. We now have a little method to bring back the lowest tier price on a magento product view page!

Here is how you do it:
1. Create a file in your product>view folder called getlowest.phtml
Copy & paste the following into it:

<?php
/**
* @E-Commercewebdesign.co.uk
*/
$_product = $this->getProduct();
$_tierPrices = $this->getTierPrices();
$_finalPriceInclTax = $this->helper('tax')->getPrice($_product, $_product->getFinalPrice(), true);

$_weeeTaxAmount = Mage::helper('weee')->getAmountForDisplay($_product);
if (Mage::helper('weee')->typeOfDisplay($_product, array(1,2,4))) {
$_weeeTaxAttributes = Mage::helper('weee')->getProductWeeeAttributesForDisplay($_product);
}

?>
<?php if (count($_tierPrices) > 0): ?>
<?php if ($this->getInGrouped()): ?>
<?php $_tierPrices = $this->getTierPrices($_product); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php Mage::helper('weee')->processTierPrices($_product, $_tierPrices); ?>
<?php $i = 0; ?>
<?php $_tierPrices = array_reverse($_tierPrices); ?>
<?php foreach ($_tierPrices as $_price): ?>
<?php if($i==0){ ?>
<p style="font-weight:bold; font-size: 1em;">After tier pricing the lowest price you can have a Cowboy Hat is...
<span style="font-size:150%; text-decoration:underline;">
<?php echo $_price['formated_price']; ?>
</span>
<p>
<?php $i++; ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
<?php endif;?>

As you can see you can edit some words above to output whatever you like around this lowest price – could be on top of an image or simply surrounded by text like above.

2. Open your themes catalog.xml and paste in the following code:

<block type="catalog/product_view" name="getlowest" as="getlowest" template="catalog/product/view/getlowest.phtml" />

3. Call this function on your product>view.phtml

<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('getlowest') ?>

There you have it! This code will output the lowest price of your tier prices dynamically – and will also not show anything if tier-prices are not activated for the product.
