Disable shipping options

[jpldisplays]

Hi all,

 

We sell alot of blank DVD Media and also DVD Cases..

 

The problem I have is the media fits well into postal satchels and I can use the zones shipping module for this based on weight but my problem is that this

shipping option also allows orders to go through with DVD Covers on them which

of coarse is a nightmare as they don't fit in the satchels..

 

I have searched high and low on how to do this but can't seem to find it..

 

We only have a couple of different DVD Covers so I was simply going to put

somthing in checkout_process to look for the product_id for these items and make the product weight higher than what it really is that way it would not use the satchel

postage method but no matter what I put in checkout_process it does not seem to recognise the product_id.

 

Would I be correct in saying that there is somthing else the calculates the total weight??

 

 

Please if anyones knows a way that I can disable certain shipping modules based

on some products I would be ever so greatful...

 

Cheers..

Just thinking about this a little more..

 

Would it be possible to simply put a statement in that tells the zones script that

the zone is different than what it really is if a certain product is in the cart??

 

i.e if the only zone that we ship to for that method is Aust then I could simply add a satement to say that if product == 100 then zone is US

A bit rough I know but I am sure you get the idea!!

 

Now if i was going to do somthing similar to the above which file/files would I need to add this too??

 

Any help would be great!!
