    Default Re: Rush/Priority Handling Charge

    From the last few requests, I am left to conclude that somehow there's been a misconception leading people to somehow believe that this module allows any variance and customization--as if it were some sort of magic silver bullet. Unfortunately, the aim for this module us much less flamboyant. Please allow my to clarify: this module simply makes an adjustment to the "order total" to account for some surcharge in a global manner. I called it "priority handling" but you can assign it another name. Regardless, the point is that it simply adds a single global surcharge that the end-consumer can choose to "add" if they want to. If this is what you are looking for, then this module does what it claims.

    However, if you seek a more complex differentiation for either calculating or appling a type of surcharge, then you need to modify the module code yourself to accomplish your goal. As you are invested to achieve your goal, I hope you find the existing code as good starting point to achieve what your need. Personally, I piggied-back on another's code to achieve this module for my needs, and posted it back to the forum to hopefully help others. I would highly recommend that anyone who similarly needs to extend functionality further, to fork the code (meaning your make your own module) and then post it to this community so anyone can download it. I personally think this type of sharing is what builds the essence of community-supported code.

    Apologies for any misconception.

    Regards,
