UK Shipping Table


Redefine

Recommended Posts

I am assuming there is a formula for UK Shipping rates that you would put into the Shipping Table

 

(the one that says - Shipping Table ..... The shipping cost is based on the total cost or weight of items. Example: 25:8.50,50:5.50,etc.. Up to 25 charge 8.50, from there to 50 charge 5.50, etc)

 

Can someone please explain this to me?

 

many thanks

Just get a quote from whoever you are using to deliver

your goods. Find out how much they charge for certain weights

then add the price to the weights as you detailed above.

Make sure that in your configuration that you have Tarre set to

0 and no delivery surcharge.

 

You can also find some contributions for the Royal Mail Registered

post, UPS and others that have the weights and prices already

programmed. You may want to install them or stick to the one you've

got.

 

Add the weights to your products and that's it everything should

work.

 

Hope that helps

 

 

Cheers

The numer you enter into the items weight is just a number - it

is not kilo's or grammes etc it is just a number.

 

What you need to do is set the unit type in the shipping option

of your choice. Edit the file in this directory:

 

/catalog/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/

 

then when you enter the weight in the product description

you can enter for example 0.5 or 1 etc

 

Hope you understand my bad instructions ;-) I am new to this

as well!
