How can I limit the shipping options for these particular products to just the UPS Ground Service? Right now, customers are selecting Parcel Post because it calculates cheaper than the UPS Ground option.
An article in the FAQs said to use the Per Unit (perweightunit) shipping module and set the weight in the product editor to the the cost of shipping. I did that, and it works fine. It displays as "Best Way".
My problem is that I want BEST WAY to be the only option to appear in checkout when specific products are in the order. If the customer is not buying a flammable liquid product, the system should continue to display as it is now set (providing several other options.)
All this can get a bit complicated if the customer combines other items in the order along with a flammable liquid. The flammable liquid should always ship separately, but I'll save that issue for another day.
So the question is: HOW TO LIMIT SHIPPING OPTIONS FOR SPECIFIC PRODUCTS?
