sale my product locally

[balonglong78]

Hi,

I like to set up my zone cart selling product locally, where can i do this set up??
I do not want my product to be sold worldwide.

Thanks!!

You can delete all countries and zones where your product is not going to be sold. This will mean that the ONLY country (countries) appearing on the login, registrration, shipping, address pages (etc - in admin as well...) will be those left in your database.

Bear in mind, if you decide to sell globally, you will have to add the deleted countries back again.

You may need to re-configure zone and tax settings...

BACK UP database before you begin.

Do not delete them....just create a zone definition with only those areas you intend on shipping to and use the zone def in the shipper that you select to use

I thought this add-on might also be good for your local-only shop:
Local Message. It allows shopowners to issue per-zip-code messages.

Hi Kobra... correct me if I'm wrong, but if all the countries are still available, this will allow people to register... even those who will later be restricted by the zone shipping config.

They will only discover they can't check-out when they try to do so.

Apart from the unnecessary use of website resources and personal annoyance, surely it would be better to prevent registration by listing only the countries that can apply to potential registrants... ?
