Flat Rate Shipping with Zones

Hello Zen Cart Forum,

I have almost completed my shopping cart for my store. I want to set up shipping as follows;

Australia

Spend up to $100; Shipping $9.95
Spend between $100 to $200; Shipping $6.95
Spend over $200; Shipping $0.00

The Rest of the World

Up to $300; Shipping will be determined and you'll be notified.
Over $300; Shipping $0.00

I am currently using the Zone Rates module that installed with Zen Cart (I then installed the Zone Rates module). It works perfectly for (test) orders from Australia, but always gives $0.00 for (test) international (international from an Australian perspective) shipping no matter what the cost of the order is.

Any assistance or suggestion is deeply appreciated.

Thanks and regards,

Re: Flat Rate Shipping with Zones

Have you setup up zones for Australia and another for Rest of the World?
Set these up and enter the table in the zone rate shipping module based upon price

I think you will need a bit of code for Rest of the World under 300

Re: Flat Rate Shipping with Zones

Hello kobra,

I have set up, using the Zones Rate module (price based);

Zone 1: AU
100:9.95,200:6.95,300:0.00

Zone 2: 00 (That is Zero Zero)
299:To Be Determined,300:0.00

Honestly I don't have the '299:To Be Determined' in zone 2, ideally that is what I would like to have. As for the '00' I should put the countries that are not Australia in (their 2 letter ISO code), but it seems to recognise when it is not Australia, and knows the country the shipping is to.

Thank you very much kobra for your prompt response, I'm not too afraid of coding but not knowing PHP I would have to know precisely where the change should be made.

Thanks and regards,

Re: Flat Rate Shipping with Zones

Hello Kobra,

Thank you for your help, rather than having Australia and the rest of the World, it will be easier for my to set Zones up, and only delivery to a specific amount of countries. A bit more work but easier for me.

Thanks for your assistance.
