In skin1/main/customer/cart_totals.tpl look for this code:

Code:

<TD nowrap align="right"><FONT class="ProductPriceSmall">{if $login ne "" or $config.General.apply_default_country eq "Y" or $cart.shipping_cost gt 0}{include file="currency.tpl" value=$shipping_cost}</FONT></TD>

<TD nowrap align="right">{include file="customer/main/alter_currency_value.tpl" alter_currency_value=$shipping_cost}{else}n/a{assign var="not_logged_message" value="1"}</FONT></TD><TD>{/if}</TD>

</TR>

{/if}

There you will see the n/a that shows up. You can change that to what ever you like. OR you can take out the:

Code:

or $cart.shipping_cost gt 0

In the if, since you are having this problem with free shipping. It actually may be a bug and you may want to report it to X-cart via your help desk. Seems to me like shipping should show up as Zero if it's free, instead of n/a.

In skin1/main/customer/cart_totals.tpl I located this code:

Code:

 

<TD nowrap align="right"><FONT class="ProductPriceSmall">{if $login ne "" or $config.General.apply_default_country eq "Y" or $cart.shipping_cost gt 0}{include file="currency.tpl" value=$shipping_cost}</FONT></TD> 

<TD nowrap align="right">{include file="customer/main/alter_currency_value.tpl" alter_currency_value=$shipping_cost}{else}n/a{assign var="not_logged_message" value="1"}</FONT></TD><TD>{/if}</TD> 

</TR> 

{/if}

I added

Code:

or $cart.shipping_cost eq 0

after

Code:

or $cart.shipping_cost gt 0

This fixed the n/a problem and now 0.00 is being shown instead of n/a but in the Delivery method: drop down list the prices of all methods still disappear when when free shipping is selected. This problem does not occur when a customer is logged in so I don't think it is a bug. There must be another place in the tpl that is causing this to happen. Any ideas?

I finally managed to get this mod working clean in a 3.5.10 site. Here is what I did:

1). Uncheck the option "When a customer isn't logged in, it is presumed that he is from a default country." in General.

2). Create calculate.gif and place it in /skin1/images (you could just use the supplied go.gif).

3). Modified cart.php:
Old Code:
x_session_register("cart");
x_session_register("intershipper_rates");
x_session_register("intershipper_recalc");
x_session_unregister("secure_oid");
x_session_register("extended_userinfo");
x_session_register("anonymous_checkout");

New Code:
if(!$login){
$smarty->assign("not_logged_message","1");
}
else{
$smarty->assign("not_logged_message","0");
}

x_session_register("cart");
x_session_register("intershipper_rates");
x_session_register("intershipper_recalc");
x_session_unregister("secure_oid");
x_session_register("extended_userinfo");
x_session_register("anonymous_checkout");
x_session_register("zipcode_estimate");

if($HTTP_GET_VARS['zip_estimate'] == "clear"){
$zipcode_estimate = "";
func_header_location("cart.php");
}

if(!empty($HTTP_POST_VARS['zip_estimate'])){
$zipcode_estimate = $_POST['zip_estimate'];

$count = substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"0") + substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"1") + substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"2") + substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"3") + substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"4") + substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"5") + substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"6") + substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"7") + substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"8") + substr_count($zipcode_estimate,"9");

if($count != 5){ //checking for 5 digits
$zipcode_estimate = "";}

func_header_location("cart.php");
}
if($zipcode_estimate != ""){
$config["General"]["apply_default_country"] = "Y";
$config["General"]["default_zipcode"] = $zipcode_estimate;
$smarty->assign("estimate","NO");
}

4). Modified top.inc.php
Old Code:
if (!in_array($__key, array("HTTP_GET_VARS","HTTP_POST_VARS","HTTP_SERVE R_VARS","HTTP_ENV_VARS","HTTP_COOKIE_VARS","HTTP_P OST_FILES","__key","__val")))

New Code:
if (!in_array($__key, array("HTTP_GET_VARS","HTTP_POST_VARS","HTTP_SERVE R_VARS","HTTP_ENV_VARS","HTTP_COOKIE_VARS","HTTP_P OST_FILES","__key","__val","_GET","_POST","_SERVER ")))

5). Modified cart_totals.tpl
Added this code to the bottom of the file:
<div align=right>
{if $not_logged_message eq "1"}
{if $estimate ne "NO"}

Please enter your zip code to

calculate shipping charges.

<input type=TEXT name='zip_estimate' size=5 maxlength=5>
<input type=image alt="Calculate Shipping" src="../skin1/images/calculate.gif" border=0 align=middle name=btnCalculate >
{else}

If you use this method, make sure you back things up first! I am not a programmer, just a hacker.

Phil,

your solution works great. Thanks for the work!!

I have this working in 4.0.8, and want to have it display the ZIP code that the customer entered. Any ideas?

To display any php variable in smarty, you first have to tell php to make it available for smarty. So you would need

$smarty->assign("zipcode_estimate",$zipcode_estimate);

in cart.php (usually near the end of the file with the rest of the smarty assigns).

That makes {$zipcode_estimate} available in the templates.

HTH!

Carrie

Thank you. I had firgued out the session variables and was editing my original post before I saw your reply.

I also made it calculate tax based on ZIP code, but I hard coded it for CA tax. I'm sure there is a better way to do this, but this is my quick hack:

Code:

      if($zipcode_estimate >= 90001 && $zipcode_estimate <= 96162){

            $config["General"]["default_state"] = "CA";

      }

I did the same for pre-login shipping and tax for florida, it works great

I'm using 4.08. There is so much code on all these pages, I'm not sure where to begin. If anybody could just PM me from start to finish I would really appreciate it.

Thaks!

Daniel

I would hope they would post it here for all of us. ;-)
