Shipping-2 rates, plus free local

[milauskas]

Hi all,

 

THis is probably simple, but it's been a while since I've worked with the shipping module, so I'm looking for advice.

 

 

I want to use a table rate based on price. However, I've got 3 options: Ground, 2nd Day and Local Delivery. How do I create/implement 3 different table rates for my customers?

 

 

In addition, we're going to offer free local shipping for orders over $100. This would be only to certain cities in the Los Angeles area. Is it possible to use a zone rate in this case, and can zones use zip codes?

 

 

Thanks for any help on this.

Thanks, Satish.

 

I did find the answer to multiple table rates here: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?s=&...st&p=554278

 

 

On the free shipping, however, that's only going to be for local delivery. So if a person in Idaho orders $150 worth, they'll still have to pay shipping. But if someone in West Hollywood orders $150, they'll get free shipping. So, I need to limit it to a few local cities. Any idea on how to do that?

 

 

Maybe I'm overthinking this and the answer is very simple.

Set up a tax zone containing these local areas and then set up a shipping module that is valid for this zone.

Thanks, Geoffrey. I need one more thing, though. The regular price for local delivery should only apply for orders of $50 or more. DO you know of any way to prevent this shipping charge from showing up until the buyer spends over $50?

if ( ($pass == true) && ( ($order->info['total'] - $order->info['shipping_cost']) >= MODULE_ORDER_TOTAL_SHIPPING_FREE_SHIPPING_OVER) ) {

$order->info['shipping_method'] = FREE_SHIPPING_TITLE;

$order->info['total'] -= $order->info['shipping_cost'];

$order->info['shipping_cost'] = 0;

 

is where this happens in modules/ordertotal/shipping.

 

Just hardcoding Zones wil allow a easy fix.

 

if order > $$$ and $order->delivery['zone_id']== hard code vales here.

 

$order->info['shipping_cost'] = 0;
