Shipping Module Problem.

[eikeldesign]

I'm using the Table shipping based on number of items v1.0 by Christian Lescuyer and Thomas Piskol to calculate shipping based on the items in the cart. The calculation is as follows:

 

1 item $5.00

2 items $ 8.00

3 items $11.00

4 items $14.00

 

There's no additional shipping for more than 5 items.

 

Theoretically, a cart with two items would have an $8.00 shipping charge. However when I use the described module the cart shows a shipping price for 3 items. Even an empty cart incurs a $5.00 shipping charge.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks in advance,

what's the string you have for the rates?

 

is it like

1:5.00,2:8.00,3:11.00,4:14.00

Yes, it is. There was nothing in the description of the module telling me how to define the cost/ item, so I based it on the weight/item value/item options.

yes, the code does not get into account the exact count. It has this code:

 

	  for ($i=0, $n=$size; $i<$n; $i+=2) {
	if ($order_total <= $table_cost[$i]) {
	  $shipping = $table_cost[$i+1];
	  break;
	}
  }

 

Change it to this in the table.php file

	  for ($i=0, $n=$size; $i<$n; $i+=2) {
	if ($order_total == $table_cost[$i]) {
	  $shipping = $table_cost[$i+1];
	  break;
	}
  }
  if( $i== $size ) {
	  $shipping = $table_cost[$i-1];
 }

 

try to see if its any better. Backup your file first.
