Custom Shipping Question

Man, I've done something like this before but forget how I did it. I want to offer 2 shipping options - Standard and Priority. Standard would be $0.79 per item ordered. Priority would be $0.99 per item ordered. I'd also be OK with simply adding a set premium for Priority of say $5 per order in addition to the normal $0.79 per item.

Is this doable with custom shipping logic? I seem to recall doing something similar in the past but can't recall (too much experimenting!).

Thanks,

Tom

You can do something like this:

Code:

$ship_method = $form_data{'Ecom_ShipTo_Method'};
if ($ship_method eq "Standard") {
$shipping_price = $total_quantity * .79);
}

if ($ship_method eq "Priority") {
$shipping_price = $total_quantity * .99 ;

$ship_logic_done = 'yes';
}

If you want $5.00 added to both methods, use the handling charge area in the Shipping Settings of the manager.

If you only want the $5 added to the Priority method change the above 'Priority' part of the logic above to:

Code:

if ($ship_method eq "Priority") {
$shipping_price = 5.00 + ($total_quantity * .99);

HTH!

Bonnie, You are on the ball!

One other question - can the shipping amounts configured in the database be incorporated into the custom logic you showed me? Right now, I'm selling just single items; hence, the low $0.79 per item. If I decide to sell 100-packs (DVDs), $0.79 shipping won't work so I was hoping to configure a shipping amount in the database ($15 for standard & $25 for Priority???) and use that in the custom logic.

Thanks again.

For the bigger packs it can be set up a hidden option.
IE:

Code:

Then in the database, put 10.00 in the shipping field of the 100-packs, "0" for the singles.

Shipping logic:

Code:

$ship_method = $form_data{'Ecom_ShipTo_Method'};
if ($ship_method eq "Standard") {
$shipping_price = ($total_quantity * .79);
}

if ($ship_method eq "Priority") {
$shipping_price = ($total_quantity * .99) + $total_measured_quantity ;

$ship_logic_done = 'yes';
}

What this will do, is:
First, the shipping amount in the hidden option will bee applied. If the singles do not have this option, nothing will be added, but the ones that do have the option will add the $15.00
Then, the standard fee of the .79 or .99 per item will still be applied.
Finally, the value in the shipping field of the database is added.
So for 1 100-pack the shipping charges should turn out to be:
Standard: $15.79
Priority: $25.99

HTH!
