jdurrant Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Apologies if this has already been covered, but I can't find anything, and I'm a newbie, so any help is much appreciated. I want to set up the following system for a UK shop (I'm not intending to ship overseas): Orders ?25 or more within specified postal districts (eg PO1, PO2 etc) can have free delivery. Orders of ?100 or more can have free devlivery, nationwide All other orders will have a standard delivery charge, according to weight. I'm testing ocC "out of the box" - is this model possible? Do I need to install a contribution for achieve this? If so, which one? Please point me in the right direction! Thanks.

You'll need to install the following contribution - http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...ch,region+based My client recently had exactly the same problem as you and this contribution did the trick :thumbsup:
jdurrant Posted March 23, 2006 Author Posted March 23, 2006 Many thanks, Dolcev. That mod look's as if it will do the trick. It's been updated now - see http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...ch,MultiGeoZone Cheers! :thumbsup:
jdurrant Posted March 23, 2006 Author Posted March 23, 2006 OK, I've tried to install this (the MultiGeoZone one) on a test site, and failed dismally. It's the link to the postcode which is important: I want customers in specified postal districts to automatically get free delivery. Looking at this, I can't see where I input these districts so that the system thinks "A-ha! No need to add a shipping charge". Any other suggestions? Or have I just configured this wrong (which is perfectly possible!).
Guest Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 you would have to modify the shipping module (whichever you use) to take into account the post code field of the addess book and not the zone. So you could check if the shipping is for PO1, PO2 etc and return 0 as the quote for free delivery. That contribution takes into account zones not postcodes.
jdurrant Posted March 24, 2006 Author Posted March 24, 2006 OK, thanks enigma1. Time to get my hands dirty then. ;)
jdurrant Posted March 24, 2006 Author Posted March 24, 2006 Just to wrap this up, I found this module, which is just what I wanted: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...earch,messenger I've even managed to get it working, so it must be easy!
