Can I automatically Free Shipping Icon if product qualifies by price?

[mc12345678]

If you're going to modify the core code (instead of perhaps adding a listener to modify the free_shipping flag of the product say in or off of the header_php.php or elsewhere) then there is already the $products_id_current variable that can be used to lookup the price (need to consider what aspect of the price you are really considering because you may want to take into account a product priced by attributes and the effect of one attribute causing the price to be below the threshold and another putting it over), but yes you would have an issue especially if you offer multiple currencies and the value of comparison in one currency is significantly different than that of another. (ie. Yen is likely to be *always* free shipping just because of conversion factors, if currency conversion is included in the price lookup function used.)

Personally, I'd probably do something as say an admin init_ type file, check to see if a product was being updated and if so, then to run the comparison and make the database change for the product. That is at least if prices are updated through the admin. If not, and say using a bulk update program, then I would either incorporate such a switch into the updater (though a "shortcut" route and likely to cause a headache later when trying to troubleshoot why this keeps happening) or just incorporate into the price update process to set or clear that flag as approriate.


Whatever the case, hopefully you will heavily document this change both in the code and in whatever notes you take/keep.

Thanks a lot for your comments.
I see what you mean and I agree.
By now I just hacked the code and found the way to make it work in both product_listing.php and tpl_product_info_display.php
I made notes about the mods on head of the files.
Thanks again.

Glad it works.

If you have the time, could you post your solution so that other interested individuals can reproduce your success?

Here we go,
provided you have enabled the freeoptions with a value that allows free shipping over a order value, if you mod (after backing up the original files) the two files, you will have the free shipping icon appear when the product price is over that limit.
If it does not work, let me know.

If you try it and it works, let me know if it does not work, let me know,but I do not take responsibility about, however...

Hi all,
I noticed that there was a mistake in my previous code.

in includes/modules/yourtemplate/product_listing_php find

$lc_text .= '<br />' . (zen_get_show_product_switch($listing->fields['products_id'], 'ALWAYS_FREE_SHIPPING_IMAGE_SWITCH') ? (zen_get_product_is_always_free_shipping($listing->fields['products_id']) ? TEXT_PRODUCT_FREE_SHIPPING_ICON . '' : '') : ''); 

and substitute with

$clean_normal_price = zen_get_products_base_price($listing->fields['products_id']);
$clean_special_price = zen_get_products_special_price($listing->fields['products_id']);
if  ($clean_normal_price >= $clean_special_price) {
    $rcs_price = $clean_special_price;
    }
if ($clean_special_price == ''){
    $rcs_price = $clean_normal_price;
    }
      $lc_text .= '' . (zen_get_show_product_switch($listing->fields['products_id'], 'ALWAYS_FREE_SHIPPING_IMAGE_SWITCH') ? (zen_get_product_is_always_free_shipping($listing->fields['products_id'])|| (($rcs_price * [COLOR="#FF0000"]1.22[/COLOR]) >= (MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEOPTIONS_TOTAL_MIN)) ? TEXT_PRODUCT_FREE_SHIPPING_ICON . '' : '') : ''); 

in includes/templates/yourtemplate/tpl_product_info_display.php find

    <!--bof free ship icon  -->
<?php if(zen_get_product_is_always_free_shipping($products_id_current) && $flag_show_product_info_free_shipping) { ?>
<div id="freeShippingIcon"><?php echo TEXT_PRODUCT_FREE_SHIPPING_ICON; ?></div>
<?php } ?>
<!--eof free ship icon  -->

and substitute with

<!--bof free ship icon  -->
<?php    
$clean_normal_price = zen_get_products_base_price((int)$_GET['products_id']);
$clean_special_price = zen_get_products_special_price((int)$_GET['products_id']);

if  ($clean_normal_price >= $clean_special_price) {
    $rcs_price = $clean_special_price;
    }
if ($clean_special_price == ''){
    $rcs_price = $clean_normal_price;
    }
?>

<?php if((zen_get_product_is_always_free_shipping($products_id_current) && $flag_show_product_info_free_shipping)|| $rcs_price * [COLOR="#FF0000"]1.22 [/COLOR]>=MODULE_SHIPPING_FREEOPTIONS_TOTAL_MIN){ ?>

There is an hard coding that I did and it is the VAT adding (1.22 in red)
It is needed to change this to your vat value or better if some knows how to get the value from the db (i spent hours but I did not make it out) please let me know so the code will be more automated for everyone.
