Google Checkout - freeoptions. Need help!

I've been asking for assistance with getting the google freeoptions (ignored) message solved for a couple of months with no luck. I did some tinkering of my own and made an addition to the shipping_methods.php for "freeoptions" in both arrays. That got rid of the message, but I still can't have my customers select the free option!

I have free shipping for customers that purchase over $150. How can I make this option available for google checkout users?

<?php /** * File: googlecheckout/shipping_methods.php file */ $mc_shipping_methods = array( 'ups' => array( 'domestic_types' => array( '2DA' => '2nd Day Air', '3DS' => '3 Day Select', 'GND' => 'Ground', ), 'international_types' => array( 'WXS' => 'Worldwide Saver', 'XPD' => 'Worldwide Expedited', ), ), 'usps' => array( 'domestic_types' => array( 'EXPRESS' => 'Express Mail (1 - 2 days)', 'FIRST CLASS' => 'First-Class Mail (2 - 5 days)', 'PRIORITY' => 'Priority Mail (2 - 3 days)', 'PARCEL' => 'Parcel Post (4 - 7 days)', ), 'international_types' => array( 'Express Mail International (EMS)' => 'Express Mail International (EMS) (5 days)', 'Priority Mail International' => 'Priority Mail International (6 - 10 days)', 'First Class Mail International Package' => 'First Class Mail International Package (Varies)', ), ), 'freeoptions' => array( 'domestic_types' => array( 'FREEDOMESTIC' => 'Free First Class (1 - 2 days)', ), 'international_types' => array( 'FREEINTL' => 'Free International (6-10 days)', ), ), ); $mc_shipping_methods_names = array( 'ups' => 'United Parcel Service (1 x 0.10lbs)', 'usps' => 'United States Postal Service (1 x 0.10lbs)', 'freeoptions' => 'Free Shipping Option for purchases over $150 (1 x 0.10lbs)', ); ?>

The free shipping option even shows up when I go over to google to make payment, but it disappears after a few seconds. Very frustrating!

Bump, still seeking help with this.

Really need help with this. As stated earlier, I've been talking this issue with only partial success for months now.

Sorry, I meant to say tackling.

Please help, I'm still not sure what to do for free shipping with google checkout.

If I'm asking in the wrong place, could someone at least tell me where I can ask and get an answer? I've been asking for help with google checkout for months and have been answered with nothing but silence.

We had this issue and I think we solved it by setting "GoogleCheckout Carrier Calculated Shipping to false". Also, as I remember if our website server was too slow in responding with information when calculating shipping that would also cause this problem.

We switched to much more reliable hosting and server connections improved dramatically (almost 80%+). Since then we have had no such problems.

Hope this helps.

I don't know why, but Google Checkout and FreeOptions don't like each other. I've tried several times to get them working together, but no matter what I do, whenever I activate FreeOptions, the red error under the Google Checkout Button appears, "Freeoptions Ignored"

If anyone knows how to make FreeOptions work with Google Checkout then please post a solution. It's not easy to offer free shipping incentives to everyone else but google Checkout customers.

Is there seriously no fix to this yet? running the latest cart and gco issue still exists
