individual shipping rates for products

Recommended Posts

Is there a way to have an item to have its own individual shipping rate and have that subtracted from the other items? For example, my store charges a table rate based on price, but some items have a standard delivery fee. A refrigerator has a flat fee of $25 but all the other items would be charged the table fee for their cost.

 

Refrigerator $1500 $25 shipping

other items $40 $price based shipping

 

How would I subtract the refrigerator from the cost to get the shipping total for the other items, and then add the total shipping together?

You should look at "shipping rate per product" that way you don't have to subtract from the original total... the cart will just add all the rates per product.

Be careful though, it cannot be used in conjunction with other shipping modules and it is based on the weight field.

 

 

The other option is the "individual product shipping prices"...

That one works with other modules. If you want to limit to certain modules I recommend you use "individual product shipping methods"

The table rate contribution needs to be modified so before it checks for tje accumulated cost it will check what all products have an individual cost.Deduct those and get for the lot.

 

Now for shipping for individual it will get from the db and then sum up.

 

Probably as of now no contrib is available for this.

 

But a combinationof individual shipping plus table rate should do.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, however, it seems to be the most recent thread where people are mentioning this contribution.

 

I have installed the Individual Product Shipping Prices v4.3 contribution and can't seem to get the shipping price of a product to show up on the checkout_shipping.php page. When a product using this method is added to the basket, upon checkout, it shows an amount of $0.00.

 

I have Separate Pricing Per Customer, Quantity Price Breaks, DHL XML Shipping API also installed in this cart. No previous versions of Individual Product Shipping have been installed. These all appear to be working correctly.

 

Note that my shipping price entries for products using this method are sticking and can be seen in the products_shipping table in the database-- the shipping price is just not showing up on the front end. Products are configured like so:

 

TEXT_PRODUCTS_ZIPCODE: What does this do? (notnull)

Indv. Shipping Price: 19.98 (notnull)

Each Additional Price: 19.98 (notnull)

 

(On a side note, what does TEXT_PRODUCTS_ZIPCODE do?!!!)

 

Also, the 'Home Country' and 'Outside Home Increase' fields are set in Admin: Configuration->Shipping/Packaging.

 

Before getting into posting mountains of code, has anyone had this problem? If so, I could use some help.

 

Thanks!

Yes, there is a forum dedicated to installation of that contribution. You should post this there because the contributors will only answer there...

Thanks for responding, however, that link doesn't go anywhere. (I did try there first.)

 

Any ideas where the support thread really is?
