TheEditor Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I am working on moving a friends site to the osCommerce platform and need to figure out the following. - Customer orders item #1 and the shipping is 5.95. - Customer adds item #2 to the order, the shipping needs to either take the higher of the two shipping rates and/or add $1.00 to the total shipping for the order. Is this possible within osCommerce? The setup we are using is PayPal and AuthorizeNet with US Postal Service (priority mail) shipping method. Can someone give me an idea of how to accomplish this? Thanks, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hankfrid Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Is there any reason you would not want to switch to the normal USPS shipping calculations within OSCommerce? I use both UPS and USPS (and the customer can chose how they want it shipped). Then I have the weight entered for each product and a tare weight to compensate for the box/packaging. Based on the customer address and my shop address, the shipping costs are calculated prettty accurately for me. It also gives the customer the ability to select other shipping methods (even if you only use USPS) for faster delivery. Or you could set up flat rate shipping only, even if you are going to ship USPS Priority. Just some thoughts. HankFrid If I build it...they will come. If I don't try to build it.....I will never know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEditor Posted July 11, 2003 Author Share Posted July 11, 2003 This, unfortunately. won't work in this situation. Can the scenario I outlined in the first post of this thread be made to work in osCommerce? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumble Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Yes this can be done either by using a contribution i've seen on here called Individual Product Shipping Prices - v1.0 found at http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1333 Or either by hard coding a customised shipping module depending on how many products you have and the need for flexibility. I think the contribution above would be a better start! Reddy to Rumble Thank you osCommerce and all who Contribute to her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
