perweightunit module

[CheekyCockney]

Right, in my store I need each product to have it's own shipping cost. I've had a dig around and i think the perweightunit mod is the one for me. Only thing is I am running 1.2.7 and I can't find a download. Can anyone please point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.

You can try downloading the Full Zen Cart v1.3.0.2 ... and see if the Per Unit perweightunit.php shipping module will work with v1.2.7 ...

I am thinking that it just might ... but you would need to test this ...

I've added
catalog\includes\languages\english\modules\shipping\perweightunit.php
and
\catalog\includes\modules\shipping\perweightunit.php

and then when i go to modules>shipping in the admin i get this error

Fatal error: Class perweightunit: Cannot inherit from undefined class base in /home/cotswoo/public_html/catalog/includes/modules/shipping/perweightunit.php on line 13

which means nothing to me. Did I miss something or is it not compatible? Thanks for the help by the way.

You did put the code in:
/includes/modules/shipping

And you did put the language defines in:
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping

Correct?

[CheekyCockney]

I added two files, both called perweightunit.php to both those directories, yes.

Try an experiment ...

Look at this line 13 in perweightunit.php

class perweightunit extends base { 

Now look at the same thing in your item.php

Does it read:

class item extends base { 

Or does it read:

class item { 

If it reads different, make the:

class perweightunit extends base { 

match so to speak ... and see if that fixes it ...

[CheekyCockney]

'class item extends base {'

did not exist anywhere in item.php, but

'class item {'

did. I changed it to read

'class item extends base {'

which is what I think you wanted me to do. Right? Now when i got to shipping in the admin, I get this error

Fatal error: Class item: Cannot inherit from undefined class base in /home/cotswoo/public_html/catalog/includes/modules/shipping/item.php on line 23

Thanks for sticking with this!

[Ajeh]

No the other way ...

The idea was to use item.php as your guide ...

If you saw:

class item { 

I wanted you to change the perweightunit.php code to read:

class perweightunit { 

And see if that fixes it ...

Now put item.php back how it was originally ...

Edit the perweightunit.php and change the one line in there ...

Now is it happy?

[CheekyCockney]

It is happy! And so am I! Now how the hell does this thing work?! meh I'll work it out. As ever, thanks a lot.

Like that eh?

Just add to the products_weight

12.00 if you want charge $12.00 shipping for that item ...
2.00 if you want charge $2.00 shipping for that item ...
3.00 if you want charge $3.00 shipping for that item ...
etc.

based on the setting of 1.00 in the shipping module ...
