Shipping based on price but one item has no shipping charge

Post Shipping based on price but one item has no shipping charge 
I have read through the other threads and tried to think about how to do this and am stumped Crying or Very sad

The store has items in it and shipping is based on an incremental scale (shipping logic as so):

@sc_shipping_logic = ( "|0-25.00|||5.95",
"|25.01-50.00|||7.95",
"|50.01-75.00|||9.95",
"|75.01-100.00|||12.95",
"|100.01-|||14.95");
#
$shipping_price = &calculate_shipping($temp_total,
$total_quantity, $total_measured_quantity);


There is one item that, if added to the cart, should not count in the total on which the shipping charge is based (ie, that one item is a service and should have "free shipping").

I have looked at the other threads but they seem to deal only with the SBW concept, which would just involve setting the weight of the free-ship item at "0." But I can't figure out what to do with this kind of shipping concept since it is based on price and obviously I can't set the price at "0" and have it work out right with the rest of the cart...

Does anyone have any insights? I can't possibly be the only one with this question, can I? Confused

I can't find what I need, though. Nothing even looks close. It looks like the same stuff I was finding before... :(

Mark made up a hack for this.... unfortunatly it's for members only and is located in the lifetime members file section of yahoo.... the file name is mas_count_me_out.zip.... it'll allow you to have certain products be excluded from discounts, shipping and/or tax charges....

Do you have to be a lifetime member? Are there different boards for lifetime versus yearly members?

I checked out AgYaOff--what a cool concept! Unfortunately, only the first (and smallest) zip is downloading correctly. I keep trying, but the downloads stop when the files are only about a tenth of the expected size, and then of course they won't unzip Sad

Yes, you must be a lifetime member to get access to the files.

HTH!~

Yes... There are two member forums; the free forum which uses the same software as this forum, and the lifetime forum on Yahoo. The lifetime member files are on Yahoo. The lifetime membership is quite reasonable, and there are also other hacks, mods, and benefits.

i think opera supports resuming a broken download. or you can get a trial copy of getright or some other download manager.
it is possible he's up against band width. he just released the latest zip and i'm sure he's had a lot of hits and hopefully a lot of contrabutions.

if you can part with a few bucks there's tons of neet stuff in the lifer's forums. it really is worth it.

Post Received errors when trying this code 
I think I tried about every way possible to insert this code and received errors when entering the cart. After many attempts, I narrowed the problem (for my cart) down to "Free Form Logic" 2nd text box. When I put code into this box, my cart strated giving me errors.

I only have one product at this time to single out as a different shipping price. I do have custom shipping logic working. So, this is the way I got around my problem.....for now....

@sc_shipping_logic = ( "|1-7.94|||5.95",
"|7.95-7.96|||2.00",
"|7.97-19.99|||5.95",
"|20.00-39.99|||7.95",
"|40-59.99|||9.95",
"|60-79.99|||12.95",
"|80.00-99.99|||15.95",
"|100-|||0.00");


You guessed it right. The product I have at a different shipping price is $7.95. But, when a customer buys the $7.95 item and another item as well, the subtotal falls back into the $5.95 category (unless the subtotal is above $20.00.

Please let me know if anyone else has got this "count_me_out" code to work. Thanks.

in the pro forum there is a hack to indentify products by name and or p_id for special shipping thingies. count me out does things a little different i think. also there is coding to allow for entering a zero price in the dB without causing problems for the api.
what you have there will only work under one condition i think. if that's all your store is used for then nothing wrong with that.
so lifetime membership should have ya covered in 3 different ways by precoded hacks and add-on.

Hi, if you have obtained the "count_me_out" code, then you must be a pro member, since it is a pro members only file.
Please re-post your question in the Pro Forum as questions regarding pro member files cannot be discussed in this forum.
I just checked in the Pro Forum and found a thread concerning the hack at:

You have to be a member and logged in to be able to view the thread.

HTH! Very Happy
