Dear Mark,

I have exactly the same problem with Dmitry and this contibution does not help me because it says about "per item".

I would like for example to have to zones shiping rates. One for Europe and one for the rest countries.

I went to the Shiping modules and I saw the zone rates (is it correct to do it in that way?) but how can I make these two zones I need? And how these two zones will be appearred? Should I create zones with countries? Should I change something in the code? Very complicated.

 

Maybe you could help more?

 

Thank you very much

Elena

 

PS

Are you from Greece? Or relatives in Greece?

"per_item" is one of the options you can set it up as price or percentage. You could either edit the regions.php file and change the default states/countries or change them from the shipping config page.

 

each region has a set of values

 

		  $default_states_or_countries = 'Alabama,Arizona,Arkansas,California,Colorado,Connecticut,Delaware,District of Columbia,Florida,Georgia,Idaho,Illinois,Indiana,Iowa,Kansas,Kentucky,Louisiana,M
aine,Maryland,Massachusetts,Michigan,Minnesota,Mississippi,Missouri,Montana';
	  $default_prices = '30:10.95,75:12.95,150:18.95,400:23.95,10000:27.95';

 

so You could have the european countries where you're planning to ship to. And you can modify it to specify the number of regions to process in the first place.

 

	  // CUSTOMIZE THIS SETTING FOR THE NUMBER OF States NEEDED
  $this->regions = 3;

this is basically the different regions you're planning to use. In your case 2.

 

Finally if you really planning to ship to the rest of the world then you may need further mods to the module. But if you meant by the rest of the world to ship to north america you could setup the 2nd region to USA and Canada.
