Hi,

I'm interested, how other sellers integrate EU omnibus directive into LC (lowest price in 30 days), because I see there is no module yet. As I know this is very important for EU sellers and need to be integrated from jan 1st 2023.

I think there is need for module.

Image how should looklike this integration (image is not from LC).

Could you tell us what you are thinking? I am told you are not required to display the text on the page. But you are required to provide a reference upon being asked.

Thanks Tim for reply!

Unfortunately it's not like that, but information about this should be comunicated with text: Lowest price in 30 days: XX€. This was confirmed by trade inspection in Slovenia and EU law. They are very strict about this. That's why we remove all sale prices from store, because we are looking for solution. I remember from WooCommerce then was awful to find solution, because inspection can request history from database and many developers, who make plugin just make text, but there must be also history in database, which plugin "read". From this year this also should be in printed catalogs and so on, but this is not important here :)

Explanation:
When the seller reduces the price of a good or service, the seller is obliged to inform customer about the lowest price in force during 30 days prior to introducing the reduction. If the product is marketed for less than 30 days, the lowest price since it was placed on the market should be provided. The period shorter than 30 days before applying the price reduction will also apply to perishable goods or goods with a short shelf life. In this case, the price from before the first application of the reduction should be communicated. For failure to comply with these obligations, the Voivodship Trade Inspection may impose a fine of up to 4.000€, and in the case of repeated infringements (3 times within 12 months from the first penalty) to 10.000€.

Here are some examples of slovenian famous webstores, how they have solved this:

It doesn't sound hard to solve.
I think what we need is to save every price change to a database table e.g. lc_products_prices_history.
Then query this database table when we want to display a historical price or lowest in 30 days.

I'm not programmer, but yes, seems logic :)
