Shipping is free if total is over $20 - in two categories only

I have four products categories. Items in two of the categories always have free shipping.

In the other two categories, I want shipping to be free if the over totals $20 or more. I can set shipping up however is easiest (flat, etc.)

How can I do this?

Thanks
LW

And I buy from 5 categories of $100 ... does this mean providing 1 category hits the $20 mark the shipping is free? :unsure:

Re: Shipping is free if total is over $20 - in two categories only

Hi Ajeh (apologies for the delay - my power has been out for several days --)

I'm not sure what your question is, exactly - But I'll try to explain better.

I have four categories:

Category 1 - only eProducts so no shipping involved

Category 2 - in this category, shipping is included in ALL prices - shipping is always free. (These are products that I take orders for on my site, and I earn commission for, but they are products created by other manufacturers and are shipped by other people)

Category 3 and 4 - want shipping to be free if orders from these two categories alone total $20 or more. Since Category 1 is all eProducts and products in Category 2 technically aren't my company's products, I don't want them to be included in the "$20 or more" total.

Does that help?

Thank you so much --

~LW

This would require quite a bit of custom coding to distinquish the difference of when to charge and when not to charge ... there is nothing built in for this type of shipping ...
