Ant-Lion Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 I am trying to create a shipping module for a store which due to the bulky nature of the items that are stocked has assigned each item it's own shipping cost. The closest module that I have found to do this is the Per Item shipping module that is included with osCommerce but that module is a flat rate for all items not a specific rate for each item and another issue is that each state has it's own shipping rate. I assume that I would store the rate in the items table database then make a shipping module that retreives the rate from the database, I do know PHP and MySQL although I am not too familar with how osCommerce works yet. If anyone knows of such a module can they point me towards it please otherwise any advice on creating such a module would be welcomed. Quote

It's not so hard to add fields to products, I would add a field to the products to put the shipping in, then when it comes time to add shipping add up the shipping with quantity*shipcost_for_item for each product ordered.

multimixer Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Can you not use the weight to set different shipping cost according to that? Quote My community profile | Template system for osCommerce - New: Responsive | Feedback channel
