Please help - UPS Ground free...other options cost money!

**giyer** · 02-21-2005, 10:02 AM

Hello Team!

I need to setup UPS shipping in this way. I am using MS Max 1.5.5 with UPS Choice 1.8 - it is very easy to setup and I am getting the rates back.

What I need to do is to set up Free Shipping if the customer selects UPS Ground.
BUT - if the customers selects other UPS options (next day Air etc.), then they have to pay.

How can this be set up?

Please help!
Thanks

OK, here is an update.
I tried setting up Free Shipping along with the UPS Choice module, hoping that the user can pick Free Shipping (and we will ship UPS Ground) or pick UPS Air (etc.) and pay for it.

But once I select Free Shipping, none of the other shipping methods show up. I set the free shipping value to $1 (this is probably why) and then changed it to a higher value but no change!

I am now thinking of changing the UPS code some place and check if the user selects UPS ground then zero out the shipping cost - Can someone tell me where I would make this change?
In modules/shipping/ups.php or /includes/classes/../ups.php or someplace else?

If there is an easier way to setup free ground shipping I would love to know about it.

TIA

Try this..
Use the Item Shipping...set shipping cost to 0.00...handling cost to 0.00...sort order to 1
Then in includes/languages/en/item.php...
change to:

define('MODULE_SHIPPING_ITEM_TEXT_TITLE', 'UPS Ground<br>FREE Shipping');
define('MODULE_SHIPPING_ITEM_TEXT_DESCRIPTION', 'FREE Shipping');
define('MODULE_SHIPPING_ITEM_TEXT_WAY', 'Shipping &amp;
Handling');

Or to what ever you want it to read

Thanks, Makemethis!
What I found was that there is code in the shipping scripts for webmaker's free shipping that is preventing the showing of other shipping modules if Free Shipping is turned on!
I am going to remove the webmaker changes so that all selected methods will show up. Then I can set up the free shipping to be UPS ground...
I'll post what I find !
Thanks
