Only two zones, Domestic and International

Hi,
I've a shipping table for the Domestic and the International buyers.

For example
All US customers have to pay
$1 upto 10lb,
$2 11 - 20
$3 21 - 30
$4 31 - 40
$5 41 - 50

All International customers have to pay
$10 upto 10lb,
$20 11 - 20
$30 21 - 30
$40 31 - 40
$50 41 - 50

I'm using "Zones Table Rate (for Multiple Zones)" Module

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=695

For US address it works fine for any other country it says:
Sorry, we are not shipping to your region at this time.

I'm sure I'm doing a silly mistake somewhere :blink:.
Please help me setting up a kinda "Domestic or Rest of the world" shipping charges.

Thanks and Regards

Re: Only two zones, Domestic and International

When you built your Zones for all other countries did you add all other countries to it?

If each country is not added with all zones then all other countries will evaluate as false ...

Re: Only two zones, Domestic and International

Thanks Ajeh for answering my query.

I Created 2 Zone Definitions:
National - added only "United States"
International - added "All countries"

Unfortunately I did not find "All Countries" option in "Country" drop-down while editing a zone (any zone). The available options are "Zones name", "Zones Code" and a drop-down "Country", in this drop down there is no "All Countries" option.

I'm still not sure how should I do it?

Re: Only two zones, Domestic and International

You need to add each Country and All Zones to build the International ...

Back up your database, then look at post #5 on how to build a Zone for the Rest of the World except for the US ...

Thanks Ajeh,

I'll try to setup as suggested, and I'll get back to you if I'm stuck or through.

Re: Only two zones, Domestic and International

Thanks Ajeh,

Everything is working fine now.

There is another related problem, today only the revised shipping table has come from the client :-(

I'll start a new thread if you suggest to maintain the clarity between two problems although these are related. My last problem implementing zone shipping table, already solved with your help and the one I'm going to explain now.

There are only two types of products, Books and Magazines. So there is one clear category called Magazines and all others categories will be treated as books.

Now the client wants:

MAGAZINE:

Shipping National
No shipping for subscription (I am using attributes for subscription).
No shipping for more than 1 issue.
For single issue charge flat $1.
Shipping International
No shipping, shipping charges included in the product price (I also have to check HOW TO SELL A PRODUCT ON TWO PRICES BASED ON THE ZONE / GeoIP)

============
BOOKS:

Shipping National (US Only)
$1 upto 10lb,
$2 11 - 20
$3 21 - 30
$4 31 - 40
$5 41 - 50
International
$10 upto 10lb,
$20 11 - 20
$30 21 - 30
$40 31 - 40
$50 41 - 50

Please suggest how to achieve the same?

Thanks and Regards

Re: Only two zones, Domestic and International

Sounds like you need a customized shipping module to accommodate the Magazines ...

This can be done, but not with the default shipping methods as they are currently designed ...

Re: Only two zones, Domestic and International

Thanks Ajeh,

If there is nothing available that closely matches my requirement, I'll have to customize it :-)
