Table Rate Problems

[Soul39]

Hi
Ajeh,

can you set both a high and low limit on the same module;
like SHOW ON IF VALUE IS BETWEEN 0.05 AND 50?

Because the products in my cart with 0kgs are set for FREE SHIPPING,
but the table rate shipping price shows as well. I just want the free shipping to show.

It would be nice if it was possible to have that feature when setting the rates.
so you can have something like; minimun shipping weight and the maximun shipping weight.
I think the feature is available in the BRM. But i am not yet at that level to duplicate it for this.
How would go about it?

There is a setting in the Shipping/Packaging where 0 weight means Free Shipping ...

You would want to turn on the Free Shipping freeshipper shipping module for this to work ...

When the Order has 0 weight, only the Free Shipping freeshipper shipping module will show ...

When the Order has > 0 weight, the Free Shipping freeshipper shipping module will NOT show ...

Hi, Ajeh,
you are right, as usual. I thought i had enabled it.
I also had freeoptions enabled instead of freeshipper.
What is the difference between the two?

many thanks,

Free Shipping freeshipper is triggered by:
0 weight on an order when 0 weight is defined to mean Free Shipping
This runs alone and no other shipping methods display

Free Shipping Options freeoptions is triggered by:
Settings based on Total, Item or Weight where you can set ranges to trigger a Free Shipping Option that WILL show with all other Shipping Methods ...

Ajeh,

thank you for the explaination.

Just to recap. if i wanted to offer free shipping on orders over £100
i would use the freeshipping options.
But that would not disable the other modules, why not?

Free Shipping Options freeoptions is just that ... an ability to add a Free Shipping method as an Option to the other shipping modules ...

Some may want to say, here is USPS and UPS but here is a Free Shipping Option ... but it is the Store choice on how it gets there ...

For Free Shipping to be the only choice when Orders are over $XX.XX you want to use the Modules ... Order Totals ... Shipping ot_shipping and set the Free Shipping for Orders over amount ...
