Remove a shipping method based on value

[dab]

I am currently using ZC 1.3.7 and have 3 methods of shipping - flat rate, next day and overseas.

Is it possible to remove one of the options from the customers choice (the flat rate) if the order is above a certain value.
ie to just offer next day and overseas.

Edit the Flat Rate flat shipping module and change:

      // disable only when entire cart is free shipping
      if (zen_get_shipping_enabled($this->code)) {
        $this->enabled = ((MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);
      }

to read:

      // disable only when entire cart is free shipping
      if (zen_get_shipping_enabled($this->code)) {
        $this->enabled = ((MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);
      }

      global $cart;
      if (IS_ADMIN_FLAG == false && $_SESSION['cart']->show_total() >= 75.00) {
        $this->enabled = false;
      }

where 75.00 is the amount to turn off the shipping module at ...

The IS_ADMIN_FLAG is used so that the module works on the Admin ...

Thank you Linda, that worked perfectly.

Thanks for the update that this worked for you ...

You can also disable the flat rate based on weight. Suppose you want to disable flat rate shipping on orders over 5 lbs.

You need to edit
/includes/modules/shipping/flat.php

You would insert this code just below the code that disables the module if entire cart is free shipping.

// disable if the weight is over 5lbs
global $cart;
$shipWeight = $_SESSION['cart']->show_weight();
if (IS_ADMIN_FLAG == false && $shipWeight >= 5.00) {
	$this->enabled = false;
}

It's too bad these modules cannot be changed via overrides. Or can they?

[Ajeh]

There are not overrides for the shipping modules but you can always clone a shipping module ...

NOTE: be sure to test new shipping modules or changes in both the Catalog and Admin to ensure that they run properly ...

and what is the code if I would disable the modules with weight < 5 and total > 50 ?

[Ajeh]

global $cart;
$shipWeight = $_SESSION['cart']->show_weight();
$shipTotal = $_SESSION['cart']->show_total();
if (IS_ADMIN_FLAG == false && ($shipWeight < 5.00 and $shipTotal > 50) {
	$this->enabled = false;
}
