    Default Not adding shipping costs on multiple items

    My apologies if the answer is already here somewhere - I cant seem to find it.

    I'm using zones shipping because we ship globally.
    I have a problem that occurs when someone orders two or more of one product. Only one shipping cost is applied.
    So - if product1 has a weight of 1 which = $5 shipping to zone1 and the customer orders 3 of them he still only gets charged $5 shipping instead of $15.

    Is there something I need to enable somewhere?

    Hi,

    i shall attempt to answer this, but might need some more information; like
    is this a new install?
    has it ever worked? have you change something?
    if look in ADMIN under MODULES-> SHIPPING what are your settings? It looks like you've got "FLAT RATE " active. ie you charge a flat fee for posting irrespective of quantity.
    What you want is ship by weight
    You need to turn off FLAT RATE.
    Turn on SHIPBY WEIGHT.
    There are a few settings in CONFIGURATION->SHIPPING.

    Can you also let us know what your settings are there.

    This is a fairly new install - only been running for a few months - so very few orders have been placed yet.
    Single item orders are being sold with correct freight but multiple items are only attracting one freight charge,
    I only have Store Pickup and Zone Rates enabled in Shipping modules.
    There is no Ship-by-weight module in there - I will see if I can find one somewhere.

    Shipping/Packaging

    Country of Origin New Zealand
    Postal Code 4110
    Enter the Maximum Package Weight you will ship 50
    Package Tare Small to Medium - added percentage:weight 0
    Larger packages - added packaging percentage:weight 0
    Display Number of Boxes and Weight Status 3
    Order Free Shipping 0 Weight Status 0
    Shipping Estimator Display Settings for Shopping Cart 1
    Display Order Comments on Admin Invoice 1
    Display Order Comments on Admin Packing Slip 1

    Hi, - in MODULES->SHIPPING
    FLAT RATE is NOT enabled. (its red )
    There is NO SHIP BY WEIGHT module.
    Only ZONE RATES and STORE PICKUP modules are enabled (green)

    Is the SHIP BY WEIGHT module standard with Zen Cart - or do I need to download it somewhere as I dont have it.

    cheers
    c
