Guest Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I need to send my goods to different countries and charge differing amounts depending on destination. Standard shipping modules do not seem to cover this and I'm looking for a suitable contribution to help me. Can anybody help me find a suitable contribution for this task? Bit of a beginner at this!

wheeloftime Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Take a look at the zones module. That will cover shipment to different zones with different price structures. Be sure to read the extra info inside the module file itself which ie. explains how to change it to get those multiple zones ((catalog)/includes/modules/shipping/zones.php) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the zones.php and altered the zone number from 1 to two as a trial - re-uploaded it and went to configure it. All I now get are three empty boxes below the dialogue box for zone 1 handling fee. If I enter anything into these it will not update. I guessed the first might be country code, the second zone rate and the third handling fee? - but there is no indication of this and it will not save. Have all available instructions and understand how to enter the parameters but am having no joy at all. Can I alter the code directly in any of the files or any idea what has gone wrong?

David If you change the number of zones you will have to deinstall and directly after that install the module again through your admin. That way you will get the correct entries. Be aware that you will loose all information already entered for the zones module so make sure you reserve enough zones the very first time. It doesn't matter if you keep a few spare ones, if you don't fill them with information they won't be used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
