Shipping Costs / Lets see what we have here.. Help needed

[SaintSid]

Hi,

 

Before I forget please let me say a huge thank you for anyone who can help with this issue. I am currently running OS Commerce and have touch wood not yet had any major problems. However as my store is growing I would like to implement shipping costs into my store where if a customer purchases a product which is below lets say ?250 they will automatically be asked to pay for shipping at a fixed rate say ?10. If however my customer purchases a product above ?250 they will not be charged for shipping.

 

I would also like to change the default "lets see what we have here" to the category name that the customer is browsing??

 

Is this possible?? If so any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks for your help.

For the shipping charges, that is fairly simple. Just do this:

 

go to your admin area, click on "modules"

click on the "shipping" under modules.

under the shipping modules listed in the center area of the page, choose "table rate"

at the right, click on the button that says "install"

Next, click the button that says "edit"

under the shipping table enter this: 249.99:10,10000:0

under table method, select "price"

click "update" and you are done.

 

In the example above, I assumed your maximum price on your site is under 10,000 pounds. If you have items above that price, increase the number to cover your maximum price.

 

To change the wording "Let's see what we have here", go look in your catalog/includes/languages/english/index.php file and edit the text in that file. Just search out the text string that you want to edit, and change it to what you want.

 

Don't forget to always backup the old file before you overwrite it with a new one!

 

Good luck.
