Disable table shipping after certain rate

[lilblocker]

G'Day
I'm using Zen v1.3.8a, using a customised template.. I have a few table rates set up with different options so overnight, 2-3 days and 5-7 days. But my only problem here is that the overnight option I only want to offer to orders 3.0kg or less so as soon as it hits 3.1kg is it possible for that option to magically dissapear ??? 0.501:8.184,3.0:11.91 is my current table set up i've googled for ages and had a look through the online FAQ's and manual and come up stumps... The other dirty alternative is whacking in some ridiculous price which i don't really want to do as I want to offer the best prices to my customers.

Cheers

0.501:8.184,3.0:11.91 seems correct. If an order exceeds 3.0 in weight then your overnight shipping module should not be there as an option.

What's happening when a cart reaches 3kg++ and yuo click checkout? Is it still displaying the overnight option even though you have 3.0:11.91 set as the last option in your tariff fields?

Hey,
Yeah unfortunately it still shows up but as $0.00 i'm basically looking for a calculation that says >3.10 = not available if that makes sense but at the moment is it is >3.10 = $0.00 which is crap............

easy job to change table rates modules. You need to add a line of codes in "includes/modules/shipping/table.php"

if($shipping_weight > 3.0) $this->status = false;

You can transfer the code into the zencart one...I think that helps.

Thanks for the response... Would I just insert it like this ?

define('MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_TEXT_TITLE', 'Next Day (No Insurance - View our policy on uninsured items)');
if($shipping_weight > 3.0) $this->status = false;
define('MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_TEXT_DESCRIPTION', 'ExpressPost');
define('MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_TEXT_WAY', 'Express Post - Next Business Day Delivery after dispatch');
define('MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_TEXT_WEIGHT', 'Weight');
define('MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_TEXT_AMOUNT', 'Amount');

oh, dear, I don't know you are not familiar with zencart working routines. The code can't be inserted like that.

Please find the codes below:

// disable only when entire cart is free shipping
if (zen_get_shipping_enabled($this->code)) {
$this->enabled = ((MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);
}

after it, insert line below:

if($shipping_weight > 3.0) $this->enabled = false;

G'day,

I found the first line that was already in there.... i've added like this

$this->icon = '';
$this->tax_class = MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_TAX_CLASS;
$this->tax_basis = MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_TAX_BASIS;
// disable only when entire cart is free shipping
if (zen_get_shipping_enabled($this->code)) {
$this->enabled = ((MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);
}
if($shipping_weight > 3.0) $this->enabled = false;
if ( ($this->enabled == true) && ((int)MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_ZONE > 0) ) {
$check_flag = false;
$check = $db->Execute("select zone_id from " . TABLE_ZONES_TO_GEO_ZONES . " where geo_zone_id = '" . MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE2_ZONE . "' and

Uploaded but with 4kg in the basket it's still showing up as an option just with $0.00 as the cost... Have I inserted the code directly........ Thanks for your help so far....

I don't know why it's like that...are you using a standard Table Rate shipping file?

If it's not customized, it should work now.

Can you send me the file so I can have a look at it, my email is [email protected]

Sure thing i'll email now.

I actually have a similar problem, which I why I was looking at the OP. My problem is that when an international cart weighs over 2kg, my shipping module cannot find any option as my carrier does not ship over this weight as standard and I have not inserted 2kg+++ into the tariffs. So, since it cannot find an option for 2kg, it goes into a redirect loop and gives a browser error page.

Apart from setting a cray price in the tariff pages, is there a way to sort out the redirect loop? Direct to a page that requests the customer contact us for a shipping quote?
