Multiple Ship-To Addresses [Support Thread]

[lat9]

It seems that we may be putting the cart before the horse as it were. Multi selects the shipping method then the addresses. There seems to be no way to add two items to the cart and send them to different addresses using different shipping methods.

Selecting UPS at first and then splitting the shipping with one going to a PO Box means we need to change to USPS.

Am I missing something here

Nope, you're not missing anything. The plugin supports Multiple Ship-To Addresses, not (currently) Multiple Ship-To Methods.

I've noted the request in the plugin's GitHub repository: https://github.com/lat9/multiship/issues/31

THANX,
We would limit the shipping but USPS is so much more expensive when the item leaves Texas. Inside, we can get around dimensional weight.
After our rodeo road trip, I'll look further into the matter.

Don't think I left any out.

When a customer with multiple addresses goes to check out using, a credit card (Square) in Step 2, the option to multiship does NOT appear on step 3 of checkout.

If the customer selects money order in Step 2, the option to ship to multiple addresses is just fine.

Thought it might be the address format at first as one address had physical as street and PO Box as Address Line 2:. Tried different combinations and none would work with a credit card.

Then thought it might be that most of the customers were brought over from Magento, so I tried with a post-customer-move account with the same result.

Had only tested this with money/order prior to customer having a problem.

Thinking maybe a setting in includes/modules/pages/checkout_confirmation/header_php_checkout_confirmation_multiship.php.

@dbltoe, that's interesting behavior, which I can't explain at this time. The multi-ship addition to the standard checkout_confirmation page is a "simply" additional header file and a couple of changes to pull in content on the associated page-template.

Shoot me (via direct email) some credentials (FTP and admin) so that I can poke around a bit to see what's up.

Any more thoughts on this?

@dbltoe, not at this time; I might have more time over the weekend to investigate.

More information on the matter. Thoughts about the process.

First, apologies. Not sure I mentioned mod Order Delivery Date is loaded.

I've found that the option to multi-ship does not appear for PayPal as well as Square. Only money order allows the option to appear.

Regardless of payment method, the shopping cart is reacting as it should. Tells the customer that single goes to primary and multiples may be sent to multiple addresses.

With money order as the example, if only one item in the cart, it correctly does not show the multi-ship option. If more than one item in the cart, it does show the multi-ship option.

PayPal from the shopping cart page does come back for shipping but does not offer multi-ship for multiple items.

Square stays on site of course, but also does not offer multi-ship items.

Extrapolation leads to thought that whatever triggers the multi-ship option is not coming from PayPal or Square. OR... Order Delivery Date is munging something up.

It's the time of year that this site gets orders sent to multiple addresses. One car salesman sends to all who purchased this year.
