How do you display the total weight of all products on the "view cart" page?

[B00MER]

if your refering to the products.tpl or products_t.tpl

{$products[product].shipping_freight}

I am referring to the cart.php - I need to display the total weight of all products in the shopping cart. This needs to be displayed on the shopping cart page - cart.php

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In /shipping/shipping.php, add:

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

after:

$total_weight_shipping = func_weight_shipping_products($products);

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

Then, to call this simply edit /skin1/customer/main/cart_totals.tpl and place this wherever you want to show it:

{$total_weight_shipping}

Nice one lookformeb, that worked a treat.

I made it appear in the middle of 'Subtotal' & 'Shipping Cost' like so:

Now I need to figure out how to make it appear in the Invoice...

I also used this mod. Thank you, lookformeb.

I use grams for shipping, and the problem I have is that there is several decimal places. This is a little bit of overkill.

Is there a way to round to a whole number?

I modified my shipping.php file slightly to add 15% to the weight total, to allow for packing materials.

Here is what it looks like, in case this is where I have to modify for rounding:

$total_weight = 0;

foreach ($products as $product) {
if (@$product["deleted"]) continue; # for Advanced_Order_Management module

if (
($product["free_shipping"] == "Y" && ($config['Shipping']['free_shipping_weight_select'] != 'Y' || ($config['Shipping']['free_shipping_weight_select'] == 'Y' && !$ignore_freight))) ||
($active_modules["Egoods"] && $product["distribution"] != "") ||
(!$ignore_freight && $config["Shipping"]["replace_shipping_with_freight"] == "Y" && $product["shipping_freight"] > 0)
) {
continue;
}

$total_weight += $product["weight"] * $product["amount"];
}

$total_weight *= 1.15;

return $total_weight;

I also applied this to my cart and it works great!

Thanks!
