perweightunit shipping

hi

i want to be able to offer shipping by perweightunit. For the first 5 kgs i would like to charge a flat rate of R60.00 and for every kg there after charge R9 per kg.

for example for a 13kg package:

R60.00 (for the first 5 kgs) + (8kgs*R9) = R132

or a 25kg package:

R60.00 (5kgs) + (20kgs * R9) = R240

however i am having difficulty configuring this. does anyone know what to do or do i have to hack the code?

Thanks in advance

None of the shipping modules are designed to work in that manner ...

You could customize the Flat Rate flat shipping module to make a calculation for that ...

I would clone the Flat Rate flat shipping module and then customize the code for that ...

If the number of kgs exceeds 50, be sure to change your Maximum Weight to a higher amount, such as 5000, so that the weight is not altered for the Boxes calculations ...
