Need Help With Free UK Shipping

I have a customer that only wants to ship to the UK, but wants to shipping to be free of charge. I have been reading some of the posts about zones, definitions, etc., but this has me extremely confused.

She wants to restrict the zone to JUST the UK and as I stated previously wants the shipping to be free.

Could someone please help walk me through this? I understand that Zone code for UK is GB, but the rest I am completely lost on.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Delete all other countries from admin and set shipping to free.

Re: Need Help With Free UK Shipping

Create a Zone Definition for the UK Only with the DETAILS set to:
Country: United Kingdom
Zone: All Zones

Use either the Table Rate table shipping module setup:
Price
10000.00:0.00
Zone: UK Only

Now, only the Table Rate table shipping module can work, and only be available to the UK Shipping ...

This allows Grandma in the US to buy Tiny Tim in the UK a new crutch and send it to him ... :cool:

Re: Need Help With Free UK Shipping

Be sure to check your shop by creating a customer account, shopping, testing the checkout with different addresses etc. ...

Thanks for the update that this appears to be working for you ... :smile:
