Thanks bugaminute!

I've finally had time to get down to work on this, and whenever I upload myshipper.php, I get:

// Edit the file shipping/myshipper.php and under this line // include $xcart_dir."/shipping/mod_ARB.php"; (NPL used myshipper.php instead) // ADD THIS LINE to include this file: // include $xcart_dir."/shipping/mod_CUSTOM.php" // // You can also include other custom shipping files here so that myshipper.php is left alone. // // Edit the amount valid for free shipping below. $freeOverAmount=99; // That's all! if ( !defined('XCART_SESSION_START') ) { header("Location: ../"); die("Access denied"); } global $products, $cart, $userinfo, $current_area, $login; // Make sure this shipping method is available foreach ($allowed_shipping_methods as $key=>$value) if ($value["code"] == "FREEOVERX") $FREEOVERX_FOUND = true; if ($FREEOVERX_FOUND) { $tempcart = func_calculate($cart, $products, $login, $current_area); if (($userinfo["s_country"] == $config["General"]["default_country"]) && (($userinfo["s_state"] <> "AK") && ($userinfo["s_state"] <> "HI"))) $dest = "L"; else $dest = "I"; $row = func_query_first("SELECT shippingid, subcode FROM $sql_tbl[shipping] WHERE code='FREEOVERX' AND active='Y' and destination = '$dest'"); if ($row && ($tempcart["subtotal"] >= $freeOverAmount)) { $rate = 0; $intershipper_rates[] = array("methodid" => $row['subcode'], "rate" => $rate); } } ?>

displayed at the top of my cart page! Proof positive that I don't know what the @#*($&^ I'm doing. Anybody have the solution for getting it to do, and not display mod_CUSTOM.php?

Sorry HWT, I was away for a while...what that means is that you have a bug in your "myshipper/php" somewhere

here is my "myshipper.php' if it helps

I like this mod, but can it be disabled and enabled at will? We would like to offer this savings to our customers on special occasions not year around.

Thanks for your help.

[HWT]

You would not believe the idiodic nature of my issue . . . and it was so obvious. A php file should start with: <?php shouldn't it?!!!!! Now, for another cup of coffee.

[bugaminute]

Shipmerchant - Yes it can be enabled and disabled from the "shipping methods" in the management section of the Admin gui.

I've come up with a method that only requires adding ONE line to X_cart's php files. If anyone's seen any of my other posts, I really hate hacking at the x_cart code due to upgrade issues, so I made this as painless as possible.

The method is to add our own real-time shipping method.

First, let's add our new shipping method into the database table xcart_shipping. I call it "Free Shipping - Orders Over $200". The code I use is "FREEOVERX", subcode "201" - an arbitrary number I pick that is far enough away from the predefined X_Cart shipping methods. I don't set a weight limit, but you might want to do that just in case:

INSERT INTO xcart_shipping VALUES (103, 'Free Shipping - Orders Over $200', '', 'L', 'FREEOVERX', '201', 5, 'Y', '', '0.00', 0);

Now, here is the only hack needed -- in shipping/myshipper.php:

After this line:
        include "../shipping/mod_DHL.php";
Add this line:
        include "../shipping/mod_CUSTOM.php";

"mod_CUSTOM.php" is where I put my custom shipping methods. Right now, I only have one, the "Free Shipping Over $X". Here's the code for mod_CUSTOM.php:

<?
// Edit the amount valid for free shipping here:
$freeOverAmount=200;

if ( !defined('XCART_SESSION_START') ) { header("Location: ../"); die("Access denied"); }
global $product;

// Make sure this shipping method is available
foreach ($allowed_shipping_methods as $key=>$value)
	if ($value["code"] == "FREEOVERX")
		$FREEOVERX_FOUND = true;

if ($FREEOVERX_FOUND)
{
	$row = func_query_first("SELECT shippingid, subcode FROM $sql_tbl[shipping] WHERE code='FREEOVERX' AND active='Y'");
	if ($row && ($product["subtotal"] >= $freeOverAmount))
	{
		$rate = 0;
		$intershipper_rates[] = array("methodid" => $row['subcode'], "rate" => $rate);
	}
}
?>

As you can see, you can pretty much do anything you want in this code to calculate shipping rates.

Let me know if you have trouble getting it to work. Have fun!

Oh, I forgot to mention, I am using version 3.5.2.

Hi,
I'm trying to use this with X-Cart 4.0.17, but is not working.
Please can I have the correct code for this version ?
I'm using USPS and free shipping over $150 with FedEx Ground.

Thanks.

This was a great mod, thanks to all for the hard work. Another poster asked about the possibility of adding the Free shipping option in the "Select a Carrier" menu instead of the "Delivery Options" menu. Has anyone figured this one out?

Thanks

I am using the UPS module. What's the tweaking you are talking about?

I noticed that in order for someone to recieve the free shipping they have to use the dropdown to "other". Does the tweaking fix that?

[billstevens]

Thanks for the mod it is working great with 4.0.17
I added a simple else statement to allow me to define a flat shipping rate if the conditions for free shipping are not met.

I'd like to eliminate the ability for our wholesale customers to qualify for free shipping - anyone done this already?

<?php

Ok after reading this thread and the manual, i am having problems setting up free shipping for for orders over $x ( I also use flat rate shipping for store)which according to the first page of this thread -- what i want to accomplish shouldn't require any code changes.


I would like free shipping on USPS priority (national) orders >= $125.00

For US order < $125 I want USPS priority(national) to be $6.95.

Then I also have USPS express mail (national) to be $14.95 always.


I currently have the following setup ( which is not working):

I have

1)USPS priority (national)
destination zone set to USA ( which I dsefined as all united states)
the only fields i set are:

order total is set to $124.99 and flat is set to $6.95

----------------------------------------------------------
2)
USPS priority (national)
destination zone set to USA ( which I dsefined as all united states)
the only fields i set is:

flat is set to $0


-------------------------------------------------------
3)
USPS express mail (national)
destination zone set to USA ( which I dsefined as all united states)
the only fields i set is:

flat is set to $14.95


-----------------------------------------------------------
When i am signed in all i see in the drop down on the shopping cart page is (no matter what the order total is)
is
USPS priority $6.95
USPS express $14.95

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am not sure what the problem is because what i want to happen is when the order total is $125 or over it to say

USPS priority $0.00
USPS express $14.95


------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Also a second problem i am facing is when not signed in and I add something to the shopping cart (no matter what the total is)

there is no drop down by shipping method and it just says "$0.00"



--------------------------------------------------------------------



I would really really appreciate if some one could help me with these problems.
