shipping a percent of total order per zone

[George Susini]

Hi Everyone,
I have looked everywhere and can not find any way zen can calculate shipping as a percent of the total order, by zone. Does anything like this exisit ?

Thanks in advance

The Zone Rate allows you to enter the rate with a Percentage on the last value ... if this is the only value then you should be able to use it ...

Note: if you need more than 3 Zones, customize the module first ...

Ajeh,
Thanks that works perfect. Your advice in another post regarding a flat rate would be more for states will probably give me the total solution combined with this module

I put this but now it is not working, just adding $25, what did you do ?

[Ajeh]

What was the solution that worked for you?

[George Susini]

I have slected price as the method then put 10000:25% and it just gives me $25, I did 10000:25 and it gives me $25

Ok, I fixed my own problem, I am using the zone table for states, so I went in zonetable.php and modifed line 137 from

$shipping = $table_cost[$i+1];

to

$shipping = $order_total*$table_cost[$i+1];

then I change the zone rate 10000:.25

Now it works
