Charge Handling over Certain Amount

[cajunman0821]

You say I could customize to do this based on the amount. Does that mean I would have to customize the php code or is there already something in place that would do this easily?
Thanks again.

You would customize the shipping modules(s) php code for this where you see the handling charge being applied and combined with the cost ...

I added the following code:

if ($cost > 65)
{
$methods[] = array('id' => $type,
'title' => $title,
'cost' => ($cost + MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING) * $shipping_num_boxes);
}
else
{
$methods[] = array('id' => $type,
'title' => $title,
'cost' => $cost * $shipping_num_boxes);
}


The problem with this is that the $COST variable is not the subtotal of the cart, it is the cost of shipping.

So I see two different options here. 1.) Find the variable for the sub-total of the cart and use that variable in this code instead of $COST. 2.) Find variable for the sub-total and in that module, change the value of MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING accordingly.

Any suggestions here?

Thanks.

I ended up adding the following code to get the sub-total:
$cartShowTotal = $_SESSION['cart']->show_total();
if ($cartShowTotal > 65){...

instead of uses the $COST variable

Thanks again for your help.

Let me know if this could cause problems.

I'd have to test it but that is the right idea that you are using ...
