Can I override "cheapest" preselection, and turn on free shipping over $50?

DrByte:

Zen Cart already does this. Free shipping is not selected by default if another option is available.
Hi,

Is there an easy way to override this?
We have shipments in our country & other countries calculated by the zones shipment option.

However, if customers in our country order over say 50 dollars, i want free shipping option to kick in and set the shipping to a lower charge.

Preferably, that option will show as the only one and be selected while the original zone shipping (which in fact also applies but is more expensive) will disappear as an option.

Thanks,
Jeroen

You say you want Free Shipping to kick in on orders over 50.00 and then you say you want to set the Shipping to a lower charge ... :blink:

Do you mean you want Free Shipping on Orders over 50.00 for your country?

If so, then you would go to the Modules ... Order Totals ... Shipping ot_shipping and set Free Shipping on for Orders over 50.00 and set to National ...

heh, confusing shipping can be...:blush:
ok, i have 3 modules enabled under shipping, all zen default if i am correct, storepickup, zones, and freeshipper. freeshipper is only used for coupons and it is set on the coupons explicitly.

storepickup is just that and the zones are setup in 2 zones, one for National and one for other country's, both with different values for money vs weight. All national shipping usually go out under 6 kg. so they ship for 4.95.

Now we want to set a teaser for orders over 50$ we make the shipping costs 1,95 instead of the regular 4,95. I cannot use the ot_shipping for this or this would indeed be perfect for my needs

So i am testing to enable the 4th module which is called freeoptions. In this i can set the option if order value over $50 then apply 1.95 shipping fee.

But, as i mentioned, it shows the 1,95 option when i checkout with ordervalue over $50 but it also shows the zone value of 4,95 plus the zone value is default selected!

I would like at least the 1,95 to be selected and preferably the zone option to disappear, although i realise that the latter may have a few more hazards to get it to work that way.

Thanks,

Am i asking the impossible here?
Should be doable in my mind or am i wrong?
