How do I set 2 flat shipping rates to 2 different zone?

Hi, I have two different flat shipping rates: one for US and the other for international per item. I want to have the shipping calculate per item, not per price and weight. I tried to use Table rate or Zone shipping to set it up but it does not have the Per Item calculation opion as in Flat shipping setting. Can someone help me?
Thanks.

Are you wanting a Flat Shipping Rate for the whole order? Use Flat Rate ... flat.php

Or, are you wanting a Per Item Shipping Rate? Use Per Item ... item.php

You would clone the shipping module that you want to use and set one to use one zone and one to use the other zone ...

I recently posted a method to make a quick World Zone that excludes the US ... but I don't recall where that thread is at the moment ... but you might try a search for zones and see what comes up ...

There are also several threads on cloning shipping modules that you can look up to help you in doing this ...

Or, perhaps some kind soul has bookmarked these or know where they are at ... :smile:

Yes I want to setup Flat shipping per item. I did use the Flat Shipping module setup for 1 zone: USA. I want to have another one like that with different flat rate for International. How do I clone it? and save where?

Thanks.

Flat means I order 27 items and pay $5.00 ... I order 1 item and pay $5.00

Per Item means I order 27 items at $5.00 each and pay $135.00 ... I order 1 item and pay $5.00

Do you want a Flat Rate Shipping? Flat Rate flat.php

Or do you want a Per Item Shipping? Per Item item.php

Sorry for the confusion.
I want Per item rate: $5/item for US, $10/item for international. Please help to show me how to clone it.
Thanks.

Copy the files:
/includes/modules/shipping/item.php
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/item.php

itemusa.php and itemworld.php

In the proper files:
Globally replace item with itemusa and itemworld
Globally replace ITEM with ITEMUSA and ITEMWORLD

Those are case sensative so be careful ...

WARNING: do NOT change the word item on this line:

PHP Code:

---

      $total_count = $total_count - $_SESSION['cart']->free_shipping_items(); 


---

Uninstall the old Flat and Per Item that you have installed ...

Install the new ones ... and set their zones

Cloning a shipping module is not difficult just be careful ...

Do I need to put them into override folders for the future upgrade as below?

/includes/modules/shipping/MYTEMPLATE/itemusa.php
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/MYTEMPLATE/itemusa.php

/includes/modules/shipping/MYTEMPLATE/itemworld.p
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/MYTEMPLATE/itemworld.php

Thanks.

No, you can add them to the original directories as you are making new ones and not true overrides ...

Thank you Linda.
It works great. I have another question about the zone: for International, how do I set to include all countries for the itemworld without USA?

Thanks.

You search for that neat world zone post that I made that has all the countries defined except the world ... :cool:

Where I put it ... umm ... I forget ... :cry:
