How to hide all other shipping options when an order is eligible for free shipping?

[shirster]

Hi all,

Did a couple of searches on the forum but couldn't find anything... maybe I wasn't using the right keywords... anyway I really think this should be a default option but I have no idea how to make it work so here it goes...

I'm using Free Shipping Options along with Table Rate. Orders above $100 get free shipping. Everything else gets the Table Rate.

In my Free Shipping Options I have the following:

Total >=
100

Total <=
9999999

But when I try it with a test order, the Table Rate shipping option is displayed along with the Free Shipping. Which doesn't make sense in my case because I'm not offering any "overnight" or "express" shipping methods and why would anyone want to pay for Table Rate when they can get free shipping? It really does confuse the customers.

If this could not be achieved by changing settings in the admin, could anyone let me know how I could make it work maybe by changing the core codes or something?

Thanks in advance !

Shirley :)

Free shipping option it is "option" - you'll select the shipping method and carrier
But if customer want the good overnight with UPS for example - you can offer overnight not free.
If you have table rate module installed you do not need free shipping option module

Hi irbis,

Thanks for your message, would you mind to let me know how do I have both weight-based shipping rates and amount-based free shipping using only the table rate module?

Thanks,
Shirley

... and what happens if you use the Admin> Modules> Order Totals> Shipping> Free shipping over $xx option ?

i have looked over the forums about how to skip the step 1 in checkout process but unfortunately havn't got any solution. all i is know is that it can skip step1 if the products are set to "yes, skip shipping address". but sadly i have over 10,000 downloadable products posted on my site and i dont want to go over again to edit those products that are set to "No, shipping Address Required". so i just want to ask where to find the code that handles these options so that i can change the logic or set it the same as the "yes, skip..." or the products that set to "No, Shipping Address Required" would still be read as the "Yes, Skip Shipping Address... anyway all my products are all downloadable and no shipping address required.. thanks.. looking forward for your response...

If ALL products are Virtual Products, then you could use this command in the Tools ... Install SQL Patches ...

UPDATE products SET products_virtual = 1;

NOTE: be sure to backup your database before making changes ...

hello... i need help for downloads... ive been figuring this out when i started my site. my problem is i have 40,000+ of downloadable products and was set-up differently and incorrectly due to number personnel incorrect postings. some will charge shipping during checkout some are ok..and i dont want to go one by one editing those products. so im just asking that is there a shorter way to set all products attributes to downloads.to make all products to: 1. Product is Virtual: no, shpping address requied 2. Always free shipping: no, normal shipping rules. or is there a query to run? what would be the exact query or a command in tools for this? any help would be appreciated very much.. thanks you..
