Change shipping options to radio buttons instead of a dropdown box

I have had a lot of customers recently who want to cancel their order because the shipping cost is too high. It turns out they are not realizing they can change the shipping method since the options are hiding in the drop down box. I think I found the relevant code to chance in skin1/customer/main/cart_totals.tpl but I am not sure how to translate it into radio box format...

starts at line 83

Code:

<SELECT name="shippingid" onchange="document.cartform.submit()">

{section name=ship_num loop=$shipping}

<OPTION value="{$shipping[ship_num].shippingid}" {if $shipping[ship_num].shippingid eq $cart.shippingid}selected{/if}>{$shipping[ship_num].shipping|trademark:$insert_trademark:"alt"}{if $config.Appearance.display_shipping_cost eq "Y" and ($login ne "" or $config.General.apply_default_country eq "Y" or $cart.shipping_cost gt 0)} ({include file="currency.tpl" value=$shipping[ship_num].rate}){/if}</OPTION>

{/section}

</SELECT>

What if I changed it to this:

Code:



<INPUT TYPE="radio" value="{$shipping[ship_num].shippingid}" {if $shipping[ship_num].shippingid eq $cart.shippingid}selected{/if}>{$shipping[ship_num].shipping|trademark:$insert_trademark:"alt"}{if $config.Appearance.display_shipping_cost eq "Y" and ($login ne "" or $config.General.apply_default_country eq "Y" or $cart.shipping_cost gt 0)} ({include file="currency.tpl" value=$shipping[ship_num].rate}){/if}

Maybe? Or not?

Re: Change shipping options to radio buttons instead of a dropdown box

The shipping options use radio buttons by default for UPS (if it is the only method), so what you can do is simply change the {if} statement in the template for shipping display and get rid of the part that says 'IF UPS is turned on'.

Re: Change shipping options to radio buttons instead of a dropdown box

So in cart_totals.tpl, if I delete this will it work?

Code:

{if $active_modules.UPS_OnLine_Tools ne "" and $config.Shipping.realtime_shipping eq "Y" and $config.Shipping.use_intershipper ne "Y" and $current_carrier eq "UPS" and $force_delivery_dropdown_box ne "Y"}

{if $login ne "" or $config.General.apply_default_country eq "Y" or $cart.shipping_cost gt 0}



<TABLE border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">



<TR>



<TD valign="top"><FONT class="FormButton">{$lng.lbl_delivery}: </FONT>



<BR>



<TABLE border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0">



{section name=ship_num loop=$shipping}



<TR>



<TD width="5"{if $shipping[ship_num].shippingid eq $cart.shippingid} class="TableHead"{/if}><INPUT type="radio" name="shippingid" value="{$shipping[ship_num].shippingid}" {if $shipping[ship_num].shippingid eq $cart.shippingid}checked{else}onclick="document.cartform.submit()"{/if}></TD>



<TD{if $shipping[ship_num].shippingid eq $cart.shippingid} class="TableHead"{/if}>{$shipping[ship_num].shipping|trademark:$insert_trademark}{if $shipping[ship_num].shipping_time ne ""} - {$shipping[ship_num].shipping_time}{/if}{if $config.Appearance.display_shipping_cost eq "Y" and ($login ne "" or $config.General.apply_default_country eq "Y" or $cart.shipping_cost gt 0)} ({include file="currency.tpl" value=$shipping[ship_num].rate}){/if}</TD>



</TR>



{if $shipping[ship_num].shippingid eq $cart.shippingid and $shipping[ship_num].warning ne ""}



{assign var="warning" value=$shipping[ship_num].warning}



{/if}



{/section}



</TABLE>



</TD>



</TR>



</TABLE>



{if $warning ne ""}



<DIV align="right" class="ErrorMessage">{$warning}</DIV>



{/if}



<BR><BR>

Yea, that's the part....just change or remove the {if} statement having to do with UPS.

Re: Change shipping options to radio buttons instead of a dropdown box

can you post the code exactly. I tried removing the if statement, but am having no luck.

Re: Change shipping options to radio buttons instead of a dropdown box

IT is this bit:

{if $active_modules.UPS_OnLine_Tools ne "" and $config.Shipping.realtime_shipping eq "Y" and $config.Shipping.use_intershipper ne "Y" and $current_carrier eq "UPS" and $force_delivery_dropdown_box ne "Y"}

Replace it with this instead and see if it works. MAKE A BACKUP FIRST!

{if $config.Shipping.use_intershipper ne "Y"}
