Individual shipping rates possible?

[edgemeister]

Hi,

I was wondering whether it's possible to set a shipping rate per differently sized products?

I checked the shipping module but there doesn't seem to be a solution.

Thanks,

Ed

You could use the Per Unit perweightunit shipping module and add the shipping cost to either the Product Weight or the Attribute Weight ...

NOTE: be sure to set your Maximum weight to 5000 and Tare Rates to 0:0 in the Configuration ... Shipping/Packaging ...

Ajeh,

Thanks a lot for the quick answer. However, I don't quite understand it.

How do I enter a particular shipping rate for a certain product?

Let's say you want to charge $12.00 for the Product Widget ... you would enter Product Weight: 12.00 ...

Let's say you want to charge $7.00 for the Color Red and $9.00 for the Color Green ... you would enter the Attribute Weight 7.00 for the Color Red and the Attribute Weight of 9.00 for the Color Green ...

Where do I enter that?

The attribute controller? I've never seen that before and I need to figure out what this thing does. Thanks anyway for pointing me into the right direction.

If you want to set the Product Weight, you do it where you Add/Edit Products in the Catalog ... Categories/Products ...

If you want to set the Attributes Weight, you do that in the Attributes Controller for the Product ...

It might be easier to "hide" the shipping charge in the price and tell the customers that shipping is free.
