Hello,

I posted the message below in the oscommerce 2.2 forum by mistake. I believe this is the right forum.

Which module should I use if I wish to do the following:

- Have two forms of shipping Ground and Expedited.
- Ground shipping is a $14 flat rate with an additional $1 per pound ordered
- Expedited shipping is a $18 flat rate with an additional $1 per pound ordered

I was thinking I would have to use the Table Method but I would prefer to not have to enter 1:1,2:2,3:3.... all the way up for all the possible weight combinations. Also there is only one Table method available. Would I recopy the code and put another Table method in or would I use say the Zone method?

Any ideas would be appreciated for the most relevant method.

cheers,
Gino

I also have a similar question but mine is based on the following:

zone/area 1 has rate of 12% with a minimum of $7.95 is also ground (no PO boxes)

zone/area 2 has a rate of 12% with a minimum of $10.00 is also ground (with PO boxes)

zone/area 3 has a rate of 24% with a minimum of $20.00 is also Air (with PO boxes)

My supplier does all shipping but in order for me to maintain I need to configure the shipping in.

Thank you,
Dallas

Table rate will do what you want. This does it without having the enter in every possible option:
osCommerce: Shipping- Fee + x-per-kilo (http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1066/category,2/search,table/page,4)


you could also try one of these:
osCommerce: Custom Table Rate With 2 Field (http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,3153/category,2/search,table/page,3)

osCommerce: Extra Table Rate (http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,2371/category,2/search,table/page,3)

osCommerce: MultiRegion MultiTable Shipping (http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,2374/category,2/search,table/page,3)

Table rate isn't cutting it...

Client wants to install percent rate shipping (bases shipping on a percent of the product order price)

osCommerce: Percent Rate x total sale price (http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1222/category,all/search,ship+by+price)


I have installed this on non-oscmax systems with no problem, but after the install when I "install" the code I get a blank page in admin (I have checked the database and all the components were added to the configuration).

Any suggestions?

Check your error log. A php error is causing the blank screen. That will point you in the right direction.

Thank for the heads up...
It would be nice to get a version of this module functional (I don't have the time right now, and it is a decent module)
