Free shipping - disable other option

I need that when the custumers qualify for free shipping, other shipping option don't show.

Now the custumers can choose between:

  • free shipping 0 €
  • regular shipping 4 €

What I need is below:

  • free shipping 0 €

Often It comes to mistake, and custumers select the regular shipping option instead of free shipping option.

I hope I was clear enought. :blush:

Re: Free shipping - disable other option

What shipping module(s) do you have installed?

What indicates Free Shipping on your site?

Re: Free shipping - disable other option

i have the same issue.

i am using zc1.3.8 with no shipping add-ons.

when shipping is free -- in our case, orders over $35 -- i don't want the paid option to show. just the free shipping should be automatically ticked and the other (which in our case is flatrate $5) option would not even be displayed.

Re: Free shipping - disable other option

got it.

disable modules > shipping > free shipping options

enable modules > shipping > flat rate

enable modules > order total > shipping > allow free shipping

and set the minimum for free shipping there.

Re: Free shipping - disable other option

I have installed the addon:
Cart Sidebox with Free Shipping Qualifier and Checkout Button Free Shipping Qualifier version 1.1

If I do in this way, This addon won't work proprely.

My configuration is:

module>Free Shipping Options> enabled, Total =>60.00
module>FREE SHIPPING!> enabled
module>Zone Rates> enabled

module>Order Total>Shipping enabled, Allow free shipping false, free shipping over 60.

When I set the allow free shipping to yes, I get positive result for my question, but the count down in the sidebox won't work anymore. ( Add 20EUR to cart for free shipping)

Any suggestions?

Thank you bouth!

Re: Free shipping - disable other option

If you want NO shipping modules to show when the order is >= 60, then turn on the Modules ... Order Total ... Shipping ot_shipping and set the Free Shipping on orders over 60 ...

This means you would not need the Free Shipping Options freeoptions shipping module to be installed as it will never trigger at 60, and should be removed ...

Re: Free shipping - disable other option

To work the addon: Cart Sidebox with Free Shipping Qualifier and Checkout Button Free Shipping Qualifier version 1.1, need the
module>Order Total>Shipping> Allow free shipping to be set to false, free shipping over 60.

Can we change the addon settings?

Thank's in advance!

Jeet Kune Do:

Thank's in advance!

To get other shipping options to become available to your shoppers with the Free Shipping Sidebox mod, search in \includes\templates\YOUR TEMPLATE\sideboxes\tppl_shopping_cart.php for:

  $free_ship_on = MODULE_ORDER_TOTAL_SHIPPING_FREE_SHIPPING;
  
  if ($free_ship_on == 'true') {

and replace it with:

  $free_ship_on = MODULE_ORDER_TOTAL_SHIPPING_FREE_SHIPPING;
  
  if ($free_ship_on == 'false') {

In addition, you'll need to go to your admin, select Modules > Order Total, edit ot_shipping and set 'allow free shipping' to false.

From what I've seen, this will still enable the free shipping text in the sidebox, but when you begin checkout, you will see the free shipping option as well as any other shippers (at least USPS shows, that's all I use).

Thanks, that just solved my problem. :cool: (other shipping options were still showing even when free shipping had qualified.)

Donation made. Enjoy those donuts! :-)

Re: Free shipping - disable other option

HI All,

I'm using the Big Royal Mail shipping Add-On (http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&cPath=40_51&products_id=294), it's all up to date.

I've got some products that have free shipping and some that require postage to be paid.

When I put the free shipping item into my cart the shipping estimator show the free shipping option but it also shows the other postage options too.

What I am looking to do is that when a free shipping item is placed in the cart then only the free shipping option is shown. When another item is placed in there that requires postage then all the other postage options should be displayed.

Does anybody know how this can be done?

Kindest Regards,

Brett Rogers
