    help question PERWEIGHTUNIT to calculate Shipping cost per Item

    Hi

    I'm trying to use perweightunit to set up different shipping fees per items. I read lots of other post with similar intent and follow the instructions given.

    So I started by giving each product a "weight" which in reality is the shipping cost.
    Then I turned off weight display everywhere (like it said in the tutorial)
    Took off the tare ect...

    I think I've done everything but unfortunately for me it isn't working.

    Now what I want to do is to remove
    Total Items: x Weight: x.xxlbs Amount: £xx.xx
    from the Shopping Cart Content and Estimate Shipping Costs Window

    and

    also is coming up:

    Not Available At This Time
    Sorry, we are not shipping to your region at this time.

    I did set up a zone, but since things are not working, I definately done something wrong and my problem is I don't know what

    I also want to set up 6 different "zone" for my shipping
    like UK will have the basic one (entered in the product info)
    zone 2 will be 1.06% more from the basic
    zone 3 will be 1.18% more etc....

    Could anyone help me with this??

    I just noticed as well that my perweightunit dot is orange and not green or red for off that would answer the fact it doesn't work. Still don't know how to make it work :sigh:

    The yellow dot is for either missing information or customized such as a zone being set ...

    The current Per Unit perweightunit shipping modules is set to run based on OR settings ... you sound like you might need AND settings for both Total and Weight:
    PHP Code:
    // final check for display of Free Options
          
    if ($this->ck_freeoptions_total or $this->ck_freeoptions_weight or $this->ck_freeoptions_items) {
            
    $this->enabled true;
          } else {
            
    $this->enabled false;
          }

    Sorry lost my mind and misread your post ...

    To turn off the settings on the Shopping Cart you can do this in the Configuration ... Layout Settings ...
    Shopping Cart - Show Totals
    Show Totals Above Shopping Cart?
    0= off
    1= on: Items Weight Amount
    2= on: Items Weight Amount, but no weight when 0
    3= on: Items Amount

    help question Re: PERWEIGHTUNIT to calculate Shipping cost per Item

    if I'm using perweightunit for shippement fees and I'm just setting up the zones (I have 6) now I'm not quite sure how to set up the shipping table. The tutorials talk only in weight format

    For instance, you might want an order than weighs more than 0 and less than or equal to 3 to cost 5.50 to ship to a certain zone. This would be defined by this: 3:5.5
    If I think about the weight that I set up in each product which in reality is the shipping cost would something like this be correct?

    zone 1
    1.49:1.49,1.99:1.99,2.45:2.45

    zone 2
    1.49:1.85,1.99:2.49,2.45:3.25

    zone 3
    1.49:2.25,1.99:3.25,2.45:4.25

    ect ect

    or am I totally wrong?
