Set up multiple shipping Options by Location

Hi Guys & Gals.

I am trying to set up different shipping options by location & weight value on my website. I sell seeds and plants.

Currently I have.
Free Shipping enabled to UK & Europe for my seeds - (Low order fee if order below £4.99)
Plants have a flat fee governed by weight set to £5.50

I have recently been getting a lot of interest from customers in USA, Canada, New Zealand & Australia and it is not practical for me to offer them Free Shipping on orders over £4.99.

Here is what I would like to achieve or something very similar.
Free Shipping to the UK on ANY seed order without Low order fee
Free Shipping to Europe on orders over £4.99 (below £4.99 then low order fee applies)
And a separate international low order fee, minimum spend amount or an "international TAx etc. Something along those lines.

So out of the modules I have on Zen Cart 1.3.9h what are my best options for achieving something similar or better than my recommendations.

Any help will be really appreciated.:D

Re: Set up multiple shipping Options by Location

Many shipping modules can be CLONED (copied, so that you have SEVERAL modules capable of invoking the same behaviour).

You can then assign your CLONES to tackle the different shipping options you desire.

Thre are lots of posts on the forum about clones.

Read the technique described by FAIRESTCAPE:
