Free Shipping Code help

[EuroTech]

I have freeshipping v3.5 i believe. i wanted to be able to show the differece of the cart current cart subtotal and the free shipping amount. SO i want it to say" You have $65 in you cart, spend $5 more and get free shipping". How do I do this? It is similar to what Daggling Carrot Gift mod. Can anyone help?

You want to show that on the checkout shipping page as a message or somewhere completely different ?

On the checkout shipping would be OK, or in the shopping cart before they checkout

I asked because on the shopping cart it would require a lot of custom coding, on the checkout shipping page you can do this more easily.

For that edit (catalog)/includes/modules/shipping/freeamount.php

Search for

	function quote($method = '') {
  global $order, $cart, $shipping_weight;

and change to

	function quote($method = '') {
  global $order, $cart, $shipping_weight, $currencies;

Then search for

$this->quotes['error'] = MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEAMOUNT_TEXT_ERROR;

and change to

$this->quotes['error'] = MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEAMOUNT_TEXT_ERROR1 . $currencies->format(MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEAMOUNT_AMOUNT - $cart_total)  .  MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEAMOUNT_TEXT_ERROR2;

 

In your (catalog)/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/freeamount.php split the define

define('MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEAMOUNT_TEXT_ERROR', 'blah blah blah');

to

define('MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEAMOUNT_TEXT_ERROR1', 'You are ');
define('MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEAMOUNT_TEXT_ERROR2', ' left from free shipping !');

or something like that.

 

Also you have to set ' Enable Display' to true in your freeamount shipping module.

If you have Freeamount 3.5 installed you should have the variable $cart_total already. My guess is you have installed an earlier version and so do not have that vairable ready.

Add

	  $cart_total = $cart->show_total();

after

	  global $order, $cart, $shipping_weight, $currencies;

so it looks like

	  global $order, $cart, $shipping_weight, $currencies;

  $cart_total = $cart->show_total();
