Ok, I'm trying to wrap my head around the shipping logic for this but it's just not sinking in and the Shipping section of the Online Manuals are nowhere to be found. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My client wants to ship items by the following rates and they will not be using the SBW Shipping module:

USPS - First Class with delivery receipt.

1-2 items (0-.99 lbs) = $2.19

3-4 items (1-1.99 lbs) = $3.15

USPS - Priority Mail with delivery receipt

1-4 items (0-1.99 lbs) = $4.55

UPS

5-8 items (2-2.99 lbs) = Ground $7.07 2 day - $17.40 Overnight $40.37

9-16 items (3-3.99 lbs) = Ground $7.48 2nd day - $19.95 Overnight $44.08

17-24 items (4-4.99 lbs) = Ground $7.80 2nd day $22.27 Overnight $47.68

Shipping by weight, the shipping logic would look something like:


HTH!

Thank you. That was about what I came up with after digging deep in the forum, however, the cart is not calculating the shipping charges. Neither Step One or Step Two show any shipping.

I have a Shipping Weight of .49 lbs. set for the product.

This is how I have the Shipping Setting set:

Use the custom shipping logic? yes

If using Custom Logic, is shipping measured by weight? yes

Use the SBW (Ship By Weight for FedEx/UPS/USPS) module? no

Is there something else that I'm overlooking?

Also, if the Method of Shipping is set depending on the weight will the cart decide this and not give the "Method" menu option in Step One?

Thanks.

What is the URL to your store?

It's strange... at one point yesterday the shipping unexplanedly started working just fine and then after I made some changes to the shipping logic it stopped displaying the shipping in Steps 1 and 2 again. I changed it back to exactly how I had it before and it still didn't work.

This is the Shipping Logic I am using:

Quote:

@sc_shipping_logic = ( "First Class|||-.99|2.19",
"First Class|||1-1.99|3.15",
"Priority Mail|||1-1.99|4.55",
"UPS Ground|||2-2.99|7.07",
"UPS Ground|||3-3.99|7.48",
"UPS Ground|||4-4.99|7.07",
"UPS 2-Day|||2-2.99|17.40");
"UPS 2-Day|||3-3.99|19.95");
"UPS 2-Day|||4-4.99|22.27");
"UPS Overnight|||2-2.99|40.37");
"UPS Overnight|||3-3.99|44.08");
"UPS Overnight|||4-4.99|47.68");
#
$shipping_price = &calculate_shipping($temp_total,
$total_quantity, $total_measured_quantity);

You have semi-colons and parentthesis after some of the logic, which is incorrect.
It should look like:

Thanks! I didn't catch that. I had to remove the "First Class" in the first line of logic (which I had improperly added) to get this to work. But this only works for up to 1 lb. after that it breaks and doesn't calculate shipping. I figured since there are more that one lines for "1-1.99 lbs" (due to different shipping options) that's what's breaking it. Does it need some sort of "if/then" thing?

I don't know any perl and don't have time to learn up on it for this one job. I really appreciate any help on getting this to work the way my client wants it. Please see the first post for the shipping options.

Thanks!

What do you mean by "breaks and doesn't calculate shipping"?
What do you get in the cart?
Make sure that your shipping logic method names are EXACTLY like what is rendered in the source code of the order form file.

HTH!
