Hi Everyone

I am trying to create our own custom shipping without success, and no I am not a guru a total self taught amateur. So I have looked at the templates and have tried to adapt existing templates. We are looking to set up prices for a group of products in that if we have one despatched it is £20 and if it is 4 items despatched it is £25.00 etc.... Please see what i have done below. One other thought can you create more than one customised custom option. Thank you in advance. Regards Jane

You're almost there. You're having issues because you're doing text comparisons on the quantity. Also, those curly quotes are not your friend. Try this:

Code:

<?php

$info = $this->globals('ecom.customship');

if     ($info['quantity'] <= 1) {$custom = array('Standard Carrier' => 20);}
elseif ($info['quantity'] <= 4) {$custom = array('Standard Carrier' => 24);}
else                            {$custom = array('Standard Carrier' => 35);}

$this->globals('ecom.customship_response',$custom);

?>

Hi Nick

Thank you. I will give it a try. It looks totally different! Not sure what you mean by curly quotes though.
Is there any way I can find about some of this php stuff to help me out?

Thanks again regards Jane.

Hi Nick

I have been playing around with the custom shipping and have found that a value based shipping may be better (see below). But either way, is there a way, when reaching an order quantity/value that the shipping costs are referred back to seller e.g. a statement such as 'Price on Application for orders over a certain value/quantity' and the ability of the system not allowing the order to process and for the system to send an email?

Thanks Jane

Still thinking of limiting shipment of an order if doesn't meet certain criteria. If I was to set the maximum weight - found under store>component>settings>shipping setting>Maximum Combined Package Weight. would this work, I have tried it but it doesn't appear to work! is this because I am using a custom shipping method?
Thanks and regards

Put this on the end:

Code:

} else {

     $custom = array('Price on Application for orders over a certain value/quantity' => 0);

KiD91 · 05-12-2017 09:04:36

Hi Nick
Thank you, once again, I have tried this and it works. The only thing it reads 'Price on Application for orders over 11 items. - FREE' the thing is it won't be free, I don't want it to ship at all without a price been given for the carriage. Also I put in a weight under the set maximum weight - found under store>component>settings>shipping setting>Maximum Combined Package Weight, I have tried it but it doesn't appear to work! is this because I am using a custom shipping method? And finally can I put another variable in for example I have one product of this group of products which is cheaper than the rest and I would like it to be that is one of this are order it would be despatched for £16 so I was thinking about putting a price variable such as example below which I know doesn't work. If put one cheap item & one std item it jumps to £24 carriage which means it is ignoring the instruction for the Carriage charge of £20?

<?php

$info = $this->globals('ecom.customship');
if ($info['total'] >= '0' && $info['total'] <= '25.00') {$custom = array('Standard Carrier' => 16);}
elseif ($info['quantity'] <=1) {$custom = array('Standard Carrier' => 20);}
elseif ($info['quantity'] <= 4) {$custom = array('Standard Carrier' => 24);}
elseif ($info['quantity'] <= 6) {$custom = array('Standard Carrier' => 35);}
elseif ($info['quantity'] <= 8) {$custom = array('Standard Carrier' => 45);}
elseif ($info['quantity'] <= 10) {$custom = array('Standard Carrier' => 55);}
else {$custom = array('Price on Application for orders over 11 items.'=> 0);}

$this->globals('ecom.customship_response',$custom);

?>
thanks and regards

There are no controls in V8 to stop an order with a shipping error. This was added as a stock feature in K9. V8 could be modified to do this through our custom shop, but it's a mod, not a feature for V8. Other options would be to make the price very high and prompt a call.

KiD91 · 05-15-2017 08:38:44

OK Nick

Thank you, the final question is can it not display the word Free? just the phrase 'Price on Application'
else {$custom = array('Price on Application for orders over 11 items.'=> 0);} displays as 'Price on Application for orders over 11 items. - FREE'
I assume the word 'Free' displays due to '=>0' sign?

Thanks and regards Jane

webmaster · 05-16-2017 07:58:10

Under Store / Component / Settings / Language Strings, change FREE to whatever you want. In V8 that is only used in the shipping display.
