Post Electronic Shipping?? 
Greetings All!

My main product lines are graphics software. Is there an electronic shipping option with this cart?

Thanks.

This hack is for no shipping charge calculated for zero weight items, such as download files or free shipping offers on certain items. It is a repost from the Agora2 Forum by Dr. Vreeman.

Subject: [AgoraCart] FOUND IT --- Re: Any answer?? UPS/USPS and zero weight items...


For the UPS SBW module:

In the shipping_lib.pl file, find the "sub calc_ups" routine and the
line:

if ($item_wt <= 1) {
$item_wt = 1;
}

Replace with:

if ($item_wt <= 0.1) {
next;
}
if (($item_wt <= 1) && (item_wt > 0.1)) {
$item_wt = 1;
}

This would skip calculating shipping for any items with weight less
than or equal to 0.1 (e.g. 0), and round up the weight of anything
less than 1 but greater than 0.1 to 1.

For USPS look for the line:

if ($item_wt <= 1) { # min
$item_wt = 1;
}

and modify similar to above.

This seems to work well for my items that are available
electronically and not shipped by UPS. Hope this helps for others
with similar situations...

Regards,

Dr. Vreeman

I ship books (fixed shipping fee) and software (email). If someone orders two books and 1 software title, the books need to calculate shipping (flat $6.00 handling fee and 12% for each aditional book) and it needs to not calculate shipping for the software. I tried the hack from milehightrader and use 0 weight for sftware, but it doesn't show shipping total in the cart. Any ideas on how I can implement this? I would like to better understand the shipping logic that can be added in the shipping setup form. Any docs anywhere?

It's possible their have been some mods to shipping in the new versions. If I recall the Dr. coded that one for 4.0k-3.

I'm using version 4 via IpowerWeb. Is the Pro forum a beeter place for me to look for a solution?
