Issue with shipping prices!

**pthurmond** · 11-17-2004, 10:12 PM

Hey all, I am running OSC-Max 1.5 and I have recently started seeing an issue that doesn't seem to want to add shipping into the total and it doesn't seem to want to add it when editing or even creating items. The box "Indv. Shipping Price" for each item is always blank, even if the database itself shows a value in it.

Also for some reason one of the items I was testing with shows something about individual shipping flat rate when purchasing it and the amount is that same amount I manually added to the database. However another similar item doesn't show the shipping and I did the same thing to it. Any ideas???

OK this may sound stupid, but I wanted to confirm that you are wanting to use indiv. shipping?

Yes, I am refering to individual shipping however I may have figured it out. I think it may require a shipping weight to be present for it to work. However that doesn't fix the problem of it not showing the Individual Shipping price in the graphical interface that shows up in the database. It doesn't show the price at all when editing items in Administration mode.

Hi, I have a live shop that I am having some problems with...

in terms of shipping, if flat rate is selected then it seems to want to add it, but i want table rate. I have put the rates in, and i have selected to go by price. for some reason it wont add shipping though. any ideas?

Can you give us more detail? There are many reasons shipping isn't being charged, you are being too general. Please provide more detail and I or somebody else may be able to help you out.

I confirmed that the "Individual Shipping" method will not use the specified individual shipping prices unless the sum of the weights of all items in the cart is non-zero. I made a small hack to always ensure there is a non-zero weight. You should not use this hack if you do indeed have items that are zero weight.

Edit the file catalog/includes/classes/shopping_cart.php and add the 2 lines below (refer to the "ADD THIS LINE" comments)...

Code:

          $this->weight_virtual += &#40;$qty * $products_weight&#41; * $no_count;// ICW CREDIT CLASS;
          $this->weight_virtual += 0.001;  // ADD THIS LINE

Code:

          $this->weight += &#40;$qty * $products_weight&#41;;
          $this->weight += 0.001;  // ADD THIS LINE

Hi,

I just installed OSC 1.7, and evrything is working fine but the table rate. What I'm trying to do is adding table rates by price, but when I check the radio button in admin, it cannot calculate at all, no matter how much in my shopping cart, the table shipping rate is 0. To make it work, I have to check weight instead. Does anyone there knows how to make table rate work with price if possible? Thanks a milliion!

Table shipping by price works fine for me in 1.7.

You have to set the table method to price and define the rates as an array like:

18:2.00,40:4,60:6,10000:0.00

Which means that a total of up to $18 costs $2 for shipping, $18.01 - $40 costs $4, $40.01 - $60 costs $6, and over $60 (i.e. up to 10,000) is free.

You may also wish to check the order in which shipping is applied in the Order Total configuration, but that should only affect the amount that determines which table rate is applied.
