Help with shipping

Hi,

I am looking for a module as described here:

http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.php?68441-Free-Shipping-Rules-addon-Support-Thread&p=1155046#post1155046

Problem is to which folder in zen cart do I upload the files?

And as far as I understand it it will satisfy my requirement of:

I am trying to have 2 shipping modules:

  1. Get free shipping if user has a total order of over $20

  2. Specific products should be excluded from the free shipping and always have a shipping fee charged per weight.

Point is that some items are very heavy and should not qualify for free shipping even if a specific order amount is achieved.

Re: Help with shipping

It does not say there to which directory to upload the plugin files.

If you unzip it you will see that the most important step is not written there.

Upload files maintaining directory structure.
And there is only an /includes folder

There is only /includes and /admin/includes

As the folder is /includes that is where the files go

So then I need to replace the full folder includes with this new includes folder from the script, am I correct?

No not replace
We can not tutor one on how to use an FTP client

You drag and drop it into the space - - not on top of the includes folder just the space

The contents will be copied to the correct locations if performed correctly

I do have ftp experience yet instructions are unclear.

not on top of the includes folder just the space --> can you explain

--> If I would go and place that folder on top of current /includes it will go inside includes and it will be /includes/includes..., is that whats needed?

--> If i place it into my public_html folder which is where zen cart is installed it will replace current includes that is public_html/includes

Can someone clear this up please.

NO!!
KoBra:

not on top of the includes folder
You drop it into the space where includes is visible

Still very unclear but my zen cart is installed in public_html folder.

I went and uploaded the script to public_html/includes

so now it is: / public_html/includes/freerules

But where in admin can this module be managed, I do not think I was ever so lost with any script upload before

Re: Help with shipping

Open freerules on your pc
See the includes folder?
Drag that includes folder into the space on your server where you can see the includes folder
