Whre i can change default group for my new customers?

i want to create special group for them with 2% discount

[hrbj]

hello

it's possible but only with little hack.

you need an access to database manager software like server-side phpmyadmin script

 

log in to your phpmyadmin then open ps_configuration table,

search there for "PS_CUSTOMER_GROUP" entry

change it's value

 

value of this param is an ID number of customer group

if you don't know how to get customer group ID number, go to customers > groups tab and you can get it from this column:

PrestaShop enables you to give your customers certain privileges, by assigning them to Groups. You can create as many customer groups as you needed, and assign a user to as many groups as you like. The "Customers" menu enables you to check on your customers' details, create groups to which you can apply discounts, view the current shop carts, handle customer service, etc.

This is all done from the "Groups" page, under the "Customers" menu.
By default, three special groups are available:

•  Visitor. All persons without a customer account or unauthenticated.
•  Guest. Customer who placed an order with the Guest Checkout – that option needs to be enabled.
•  Customer. All persons who created an account on your shop, and are authenticated.

To create more groups, click the "Add New" button: you will get a creation form.

Discount (%). The discount that you set for members of this group applies to all products on your shop.
In that second case, the form will reload with two more options:

• Category discount. Click on the "Add a category discount" to bring up a new window, which contains a list of all your categories. You can pick one, and apply a specific discount which will apply for that group of customers only, and to that category only.
• Modules restrictions.  This section enables you to block members of this group to access and use some of your shop's modules. For instance, you might prefer some customers to not be able to see your top-sellers or to your specials. You can move modules from the left panel ("Authorized panel") to the right one ("Unauthorized panel") by either drag-and-dropping them with your mouse cursor, or by select many modules at a time and clicking on the "Unauthorize" button at the bottom.

You can add a customer to a group of your choice by editing a customer's details, from the list of customers (in the "Customers" page under the "Customers" menu), click on the Edit icon on the customer's line. Then, on the "Groups" table, select the group(s) to which you want your customer to belong.
