    Default Optional Shipping Insurance Module [Support Thread]

    https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=232

    I've delayed putting this back up forever, but I can confirm this works with 1.3.6. This will be in the download section soon.

    What this mod does:

    This module allows shipping insurance to be charged in three ways. You can either choose standard USPS rates, a percentage of the subtotal, or by an incremental rate of your choosing. It calculates US, Canadian, and then international rates. It limits canadian to $8.60 or orders up to $675 (USPS Canadian shipping indemnity limit). This module WILL NOT add insurance to virtual items or gift certificates.

    Please post any issues or questions here!

    Default WHOA! This is exactly what a lot of people have been looking for!!!

    I don't need this for insurance, but by changing the label, I can use this to allow people to choose a delivery confirmation add on for $2 at checkout. All I do is set it to a flat amount of $2 per increment and make the increment a super high dollar amount so it's never more than $2.

    Then I go into one of the files (english/modules/order_total/***.php) and change the jive about insurance to read "Check this for Delivery Confirmation..."

    My point is people all over this board are looking for a way to charge a fee during checkout for an added service - be it gift wrapping (per product is too cumbersome for some) or what I included. There is one mod for such an add on but it didn't work for me, is unsupported and far too complicated.

    Woo Hoo!

    Okay, I have an idea, but since I don't know php, I'm not exactly sure how to impliment it. Our customers can choose between USPS and UPS shipping. What I would like to do is offer them shipping insurance based on which shipping option they choose. So, my thought is to have 2 ot_insurance.php files. one would be called ot_uspsinsurance.php and the other would be ot_upsinsurance.php. The USPS one would be set to calculate the USPS insurance rates. While the UPS one would be set to increment. Now, my question is, how can I get it to call the right insurance file based on the shipping option that the customer chooses. Any ideas?
    Thanks,

    Thanks for this add-on !!

    Is there a way to format the text and move the checkbox to the left ?

    I added a couple of lines to the default text, and it comes out about a third of the box wide, with several rows.

    Please advise

    Sorry, I don't have any ideas on that, but if you have both offered during checkout, one titled USPS insurance, one titled UPS insurance, then the customer has to choose one or the other. Not perfect, but I think doable.

    Hi!

    Just add this to your css:
    #checkoutPayment .inputLabel {
    width:85%;
    }

    I think that will do the trick.

    jettrue,

    thanks for this module. The fix you posted in the post above this one does format the text correctly.. however the checkbox is still to the right side. Could I bother you into helping me move it to the left of the text? :)

    application error Re: Optional Shipping Insurance Module Support Thread...

    I love this mod, but the items in my store 'Require Insurance' and I need an insurance module that requires insurance. Is there a way to alter this mod to 'Require Insurance' or is there a mod for Shipping Insurance where you can check to make shipping insurance 'Mandatory'?

    Thanks for all of your help in advance!

    Hello,

    I have installed this mod, however I have encountered an error during the the checkout process (Step 3 of 3 - Order Confirmation).

    It comes up with the following error:

    "Warning: Missing argument 2 for zen_add_tax() in /home/xmanhos/public_html/shop/includes/functions/functions_taxes.php on line 94"

    The insurance cost is inculded in the order total at this stage, however if I click "confirm order", it comes up with the folowing error:

    "Warning: Missing argument 2 for zen_add_tax() in /home/xmanhos/public_html/shop/includes/functions/functions_taxes.php on line 94"

    Anyone have any ideas ?

    That issue is not occuring now - however I don't know if I did anything to fix it.

    My apologies to those people who might have that problem in the future, but I don't know why it is suddenly working.

    Cheers.
