Adds automatically gift products to the shopping cart when user defined conditions are met.

Gift Rules ========== An easy to use Magento module for promotion purposes, very similiar to [shopping cart price rules](http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/what-are-shopping-cart-price-rules-and-how-do-i-use-them). But instead of discounts you are able to offer gifts. This module comes with its own rule entity, no rewriting of the Magento core distribution. Prerequisites ------------- The minimum requirements for this extension to run are: * Magento Community Edition 1.8 Installation ------------ 1. Copy the content of the `src` folder into the root folder of your Magento installation. 2. Clear the following caches under `System > Cache Management` when caching is enabled: * `Configuration`, * `Layouts`, * `Translations`, * and `EAV types and attributes`. 3. Grant access to the module for other users beside the `Administrators` under `System > Permissions > Roles`, by activating `Promotions > Shopping Cart Gift Rules`, if needed. Usage ----- To create, edit and delete shopping cart gift rules go under `Promotions > Shopping Cart Gift Rules`. To apply a shopping cart gift rule, make sure that in the edit form: * `Status` is `Active`, * `Customer Group` is set, e.g. `NOT LOGGED IN`, * `From Date` and `To Date` be true for the present day, * `Conditions` be applicable to your needs, * `Qty` is greater than `0`, * and at least one simple product is selected as a gift. Limitations ----------- Currently, this module is subject to some restrictions: * only simple products are supported as gifts, * and coupon codes are not supported.
