    Default Can I have two different FREE shipping thresholds?

    Right now, we offer a FREE SHIPPING option in our store for any order over $30.00, as long as it's going to the USA or Canada.

    Is there a way to have us change the value so that Free Shipping to Canada is only offered for orders $100.00 or more, but still remain the same $30.00 limit for USA?

    Basically, we have it set up now so that the free shipping option is displayed for a certain ZONE, and that ZONE has only USA and Canada in there. I need a way to still offer free shipping in both places, but to have a higher limit for our Canadian customers.

    Can this be done within the built-in shipping modules?

    It doesn't look like the freeoptions shipping module supports multiple zones/limits, so the direct answer to your question is "No, it can't be done with the built-in shipping modules".

    However, you could "clone" the freeoptions module so that you could configure one to give the $30.00 limit free shipping to US customers and the other to give the $100.00 limit to your Canadian customers. Check out this link (http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?...hipping-module) to see how to clone a shipping module.

    No problem ... just remember to backup your database first!

    I cloned it, and it seemed to work, but I did find a bug which I'm having trouble identifying. Hopefully you can help me!

    Basically, I cloned the FREESHIPPING module, and called it FREESHIPPING_CANADA. That way, I can have a separate free shipping option for Canada that has it's own Zone, separate from the USA free shipping.

    All seems to be well........in other words, I do get this Free Shipping option to show up for my Canadian customers.......but once they use a discount coupon and the page refreshes, the Free Shipping option is no longer selected. If they click to select it, the page refreshes, and unselects it.

    This ONLY HAPPENS if they redeem a coupon. If they don't redeem a coupon, the free shipping option can be selected and the purchase can be made. But once you redeem the discount coupon, the free shipping is displayed but it doesn't remain selected.

    Any ideas what would cause that? I'm stumped! (And no, there are no zone restrictions on the coupon being used....I checked!)

    I ran a test on an unmodified v1.5.0 installation:

    1) Created a gift certificate for $25 off, no minimum order, didn't check the free shipping box, one time use for a one customer, no zone restrictions.
    2) Using the 'freeoptions' shipping, set that up so that purchases >= $30 will qualify for free shipping
    3) Logged in as that customer.
    - Added a $29.99 item to my cart, go to checkout, no free shipping
    - Added a $25.00 item to my cart, go to checkout, FREE shipping available (which I selected)
    - Continued on to payment, entered by code for $25.00 off. Screen refreshes, still free shipping.

    All that worked like I'd expect. Is the same problem present when your US customers use a coupon?
