How do I set 2 flat shipping rates to 2 different zone?

Hi, I have two different flat shipping rates: one for US and the other for international per item. I want to have the shipping calculate per item, not per price and weight. I tried to use Table rate or Zone shipping to set it up but it does not have the Per Item calculation opion as in Flat shipping setting. Can someone help me?
Thanks.

Are you wanting a Flat Shipping Rate for the whole order? Use Flat Rate ... flat.php

Or, are you wanting a Per Item Shipping Rate? Use Per Item ... item.php

You would clone the shipping module that you want to use and set one to use one zone and one to use the other zone ...

I recently posted a method to make a quick World Zone that excludes the US ... but I don't recall where that thread is at the moment ... but you might try a search for zones and see what comes up ...

There are also several threads on cloning shipping modules that you can look up to help you in doing this ...

Or, perhaps some kind soul has bookmarked these or know where they are at ... :smile:

Yes I want to setup Flat shipping per item. I did use the Flat Shipping module setup for 1 zone: USA. I want to have another one like that with different flat rate for International. How do I clone it? and save where?

Thanks.

Flat means I order 27 items and pay $5.00 ... I order 1 item and pay $5.00

Per Item means I order 27 items at $5.00 each and pay $135.00 ... I order 1 item and pay $5.00

Do you want a Flat Rate Shipping? Flat Rate flat.php

Or do you want a Per Item Shipping? Per Item item.php

Sorry for the confusion.
I want Per item rate: $5/item for US, $10/item for international. Please help to show me how to clone it.
Thanks.

Copy the files:
/includes/modules/shipping/item.php
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/item.php

itemusa.php and itemworld.php

In the proper files:
Globally replace item with itemusa and itemworld
Globally replace ITEM with ITEMUSA and ITEMWORLD

Those are case sensative so be careful ...

WARNING: do NOT change the word item on this line:

      $total_count = $total_count - $_SESSION['cart']->free_shipping_items();

Uninstall the old Flat and Per Item that you have installed ...

Install the new ones ... and set their zones

Cloning a shipping module is not difficult just be careful ...

Do I need to put them into override folders for the future upgrade as below?

/includes/modules/shipping/MYTEMPLATE/itemusa.php
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/MYTEMPLATE/itemusa.php

/includes/modules/shipping/MYTEMPLATE/itemworld.p
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/MYTEMPLATE/itemworld.php

Thanks.

No, you can add them to the original directories as you are making new ones and not true overrides ...

Thank you Linda.
It works great. I have another question about the zone: for International, how do I set to include all countries for the itemworld without USA?

Thanks.

You search for that neat world zone post that I made that has all the countries defined except the world ... :cool:

Where I put it ... umm ... I forget ... :cry:

Aha! A clue ... :smartass:

Hello,
I've been following this thread, and I think that this is what I am wanting, however, I am in Australia, has anyone done the flat rates for 2 zones from here?
Basically I'm after: flat rate each for Australia, Rest of World (and free shipping if the total order is over $200.) any help would be very much appreciated:huh:

Hello
unfortunately I cant clone "table", I followed Ajeh directives but in Admin it shows an error:

Shipping Modules  	
1146 Table 'tonery1.TABLE_NEW_CONFIGURATION' doesn't exist
in:
[select configuration_value from TABLE_NEW_CONFIGURATION where configuration_key = 'MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE_NEW_STATUS']
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

I copy table.php and rename it to table_new.php
Is it possible to clon 'table' module?
regards Arek

Start by cloning table to tablenew ...

and be particularly careful when you change the word:
table to tablenew
TABLE to TABLENEW

as the word table also references the tables in the database ...

well, it is possible to clon 'table' module, works very well for me, thak you Ajeh

Hi Ajeh. Im new, Ive studied the FAQ and tried your cloning idea here. Cant get it to work ;-(.
Im trying to clone the table rates php's.
I changed EVERY single table or TABLE to table24 or TABLE24 respectively in both files. Am I changing too many?
Maybe I cant use numbers?
In the Admin it says:
Cannot redeclare class table in /home/Ajeh is great/public_html/cart/includes/modules/shipping/table24.php on line 197

Ecky thump - I bet its something stoopid. i even bought the ZEN book! Any help would be great.
Nick.

"Table" is a word of caution ...

There are constants that refer to the database tables and others that refer to the code for the Table Rate table shipping module ...

You may want to look into the add-on Zoned Tables that I believe is in the Downloads ...

This would be easier for you to setup if you are not really familar with php code and reading the various variables and constants and identifying what is what ...

Many thanks for your time Ajeh I will pop over there and look now.
Thank you ;-)

Yep thats got it!
