Guest Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 OK here we go.... :) On my site I sell calling cards. I have it set up so you have 2 options for getting the information. You can either have the calling card information E-mailed to you which is free or you can have the cards mailed to you (which cost the customer money!) However the only way i Have been able to get this to work is set the flat fee to 0 and use the USPS and UPS shipping modules. However when people order other products on my site they see the free shipping (flat rate) and ALWAYS PICK IT> (who wouldn't) I am wondering if anyone has any thoughts on another way I can do this or how I can offer (E-mail verse standard mail) I have created the drop down box for now so the cust can notify me how they would like to get the information but this is a work around for now. Thanks in advance for all help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webz Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 I too have a similar situation. I have some products that I ship free but have others that I don't. I am not sure as I have not tried this mod with 2.2 ms1 but it looks promissing. There are several forms of Free Shipping. osC provides one based on when Order $Total > $XX there is free shipping. tables could be used for free shipping. The Free Shipping and Payments modules I wrote that come with Downloads Controller v5.3 are written based on cart weight. When cart weight= 0 then Free Shipping only shows. When cart weight > 0 then Free Shipping disappears. Other methods for Free Shipping can be customized as well. I have done several for clients where there is Free shipping on orders of $XX amount except when certain products are ordered. Basically those products are Always Shipping products. Everything in the cart that is not an Always Shipping when a certain $total is reached is removed from the shipping cost. You can download this mod in contributions.

Ajeh Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 Try the Downloads Controller v5.3 if your payment methods have the orders_status setting on them ... MS1 and a couple weeks prior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 webz, I have it set up now that free shipping will appear for 0 weight but then Free shipping is the ONLY option. So if I put my product at Zero weight Free shipping is the only option. Is there a way of doing if product Attribute = e-mail then make free shipping = True... Check out my site and let me know what you think is an option. here is a link: http://www.wholesalemn.com/product_info.ph...&products_id=35 Thanks all of you for fast response Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajeh Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 The next version of Attributes Sorter and Copier will have a weight option on attributes. Should be done this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 Linda, Meaning that I will be able to say E-Mail = 0 lbs and set free shipping to be available for 0 lbs items only. I hope I understand that correctly! THANKS AGAIN! You checking out the site? Cause someone clicked on that link... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajeh Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 Right. Each Attribute can have it's own +/- weight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajeh Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 Only good because the rest of the osC Team has written such a superb program. :D I like to tweak, debug, re-write, create add-ons, provide solutions, etc. The rest of the Team has to do the hard stuff.
