A new discount option has been added: Advanced Buy X get Y. With this feature it is possible to define an amount or total value of X products the customer must buy in order to get a discount on Y products. It is possible to set a maximum amount for Y products that can be discounted.
The discount can be percentage or fixed price type, and it is also possible to define that product Y is free when product X is purchased.
