Are you adding $15.00 for these Products or adding $15.00 per Product?

On the regular Products are you charging $5.00, or are you charging $5.00 per Product?

Thanks again for your help.

I will have 6 types of products (categories) being ordered

candles, trees, gift baskets, etc

these items will all be charged $5 per item to be shipped, I have that setup already and it is working fine. I did the per item fee, $5 per item shipping charge.

Then there is several products under the category flowers, there is sub categories and with your help that is working. If they order any amount from here (1 or 50 of them) they are charged $15 for shipping, flat rate, no matter how many they get.

Everything is working great except if someone adds a flower it is charging the $15 for shipping (which is correct) but it also charges the $5 per item. So if they get two flowers they should only be charged $15 for shipping, it is charging them $25 though ($15 for flat plus the $5 per item since it is two items)

does this make sense/

If I order 5 of the Special Products, the charge is just $15.00 correct?

If I order 5 of the Regular Products, the charge is 5 * $5.00 for $25.00, correct?

What happens when 3 Regular Products are in the cart and the 4 Special Products for the $15.00 are in the cart ...

Thanks

$15 for the three reg products ($5x3) plus the $15 flat rate for the flowers. So total shipping should be $30

Thank you for your help. Ive Bren trying to figure this out for awhile

And if you subtract the number of Special Products from the Total Count:

if ($chk_flowers > 0) {
  $item_total_count = $item_total_count - $chk_flowers;
  $chk_flowers = 15.00;
} else {
  $chk_flowers = 0;
}
