This mod allows selecting one or more shipping methods as to be free, while the rest of the shipping methods are calculated as normal...

Replace:

PHP Code:

# Calculate total_cost and total_+weight for selection condition
            if ($product["free_shipping"] != "Y" || $config['Shipping']['free_shipping_weight_select'] == 'Y') {
                $total_shipping_valid += $product["subtotal"];
                $total_weight_shipping_valid += $product["weight"] * $product["amount"];
            }

            # Calculate total_cost and total_+weight for shipping calculation
            if ($product["free_shipping"] == "Y")
                continue; 


With:

PHP Code:

# Calculate total_cost and total_+weight for selection condition
            # Dirks Free Shipping Mod Part 1

                        if ($product["free_shipping"] == "Y" && $shipping_id == 52)

After trying other mods and searching for hours and hours, and tracing through code... yuck (im not a programmer, LOL) This code works for me, hope it works for you...

There was a logic error in this code.. it would make shipping id 52 always free....

PHP Code:

if ($shipping_id == 52)
continue; 


To make shipping id 52 only free when free shipping is selected...

PHP Code:

if ($product["free_shipping"] == "Y" && $shipping_id == 52)
            continue;

Me too... It took me a long time finding.... Works for version 4.2.2

I have a client who wants one of his admin store managers to have free shipping always; would this be the best option to set that up? Or should I use membership profiles?
