Shipping Zone question

[cornishpirate]

I have 3 shipping modules: UK standard, UK express and Zones (covering the rest of Europe).

 

Problem is this: if I select a UK delivery address, the checkout page gives the UK options correctly and then the Zones states - also correctly - that there is no shipping for this zone!

 

When there are valid shipping options, I want to suppress other error messages as they are irrelevant.

Not sure which osC version you're using but an error message like you describe can be found here:

 

includes\languages\english\modules\shipping\zones.php (Line 17): define('MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_INVALID_ZONE', 'No shipping available to the selected country')

Using RC2a.

 

Yes - I realise I can change the message. What I want to do is suppress the Zone heading and the message if shipping address is the UK. Otherwise, of course I want to keep it.

 

Similarly, I need to suppress the 2 UK options if shipping address is non-UK.

You need to make out How A shipping option is mapped to a Zone.

How Zones are created and How country and states are added to a Zone.

 

 

Once You have this idea You will be able to fix.

Have it sorted now. Just added some code at the start of each Shipping module so that the 2 UK modules only go active for UK and the non-UK one only works for non-UK addresses.

 

Quite easy when you know how. Wish there was a full technical guide on inner workings!

 

    function zones() {
global $order;
     $this->code = 'zones';
     $this->title = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_TITLE;
     $this->description = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_DESCRIPTION;
     $this->sort_order = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_SORT_ORDER;
     $this->icon = '';
     $this->tax_class = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TAX_CLASS;
     $this->enabled = ((MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);
// This disables the module if delivery NOT to UK	  
  if ($order->delivery['country_id'] == STORE_COUNTRY) {
	$this->enabled = false;
	}


     // CUSTOMIZE THIS SETTING FOR THE NUMBER OF ZONES NEEDED
     $this->num_zones = 3;
   }

I have a similar question... I think. I did figure out how to get more shipping zones, but I can't figure out how to change the table rate to price. ie, different order amounts, get different shipping rates. Much easier than weight.
