Free shipping for Australia and rest of the World charge Shipping w/AU post

[frank18]

Hi,

Thanks for your advice. Here are my answers.


Are you marking all of your Products as Always Free Shipping just to display the Free Shipping? >>> YES because I do want to display this free shipping icon ( thinking loud now ..I just realised this can not be used as can me misleading for overseas buyers. So I should not use the 'free shipping icon' instead indicate somewhere that 'Free shipping only within Australia' . So this would make 'Products as Always Free Shipping' redundant therefore I should change to default shipping settings for all products

...AND then follow your advise below..yes?

Have you tried installing Flat Rate flat and add a Zone on it for Australia then set the amount to 0.00 ... >> No I havent'.

Then, make a Zone for the rest of the world and put it on your Australia Post rates austpost ... >> I haven't gone that far yet.

None of your products should be set to "Always Free Shipping". Unset that.

Then follow Ajeh's advice and

1. assign Flat Rate = $0.00 to Australia only (you could rename 'Flat Rate' to 'Free Domestic Shipping' in the language file to reflect that)

2. use zone rates (or whatever is available in your austpost module) and set that to "Rest of the World" whilst skipping AU.

Unless you have any other shipping modules installed/activated then this should work out of the box.
