Setting up Custom Shipping per Milage

Hi there,

I have a client who sells furniture and he wants to setup a few custom shipping rates for example:

10 miles = $1.00
20 miles = $2.00
30 miles = $3.00
40 miles = $4.00
50 miles = $5.00
60 miles = $6.00
70 miles = $7.00

Currently I have the UPS module installed which is great because it's able to figure out the distance. Is anyone aware of a way to basically allow UPS to figure out the distance of the users Zip Code, or State / City and output a custom price based on the distance from the store's location?

I had a look at the php class, and I generally get the idea of how it works as an API, but is there any possibility for this customization? Or are there any modules available to handle this sort of mechanism?

Any help is greatly appreciated. (Running latest version of zencart)

Thanks!! :smile:

This could be customized but there isn't anything for Zen Cart designed to give you a start on this that I have seen ...

So there isn't anything that will allow the custom price of shipping based on how far away the customer is?

Is there anything that can detect distance besides for UPS that would allow custom rates?

Thanks...

I want to done some calculation on price, that give me a new price for product, now I want that zencart will accept my this new calculated price and passed to add to cart, but it not working as it every time accept there previous price, so my question is that, did any one give me an idea, that what variable is used for price, that I will assigned my calculated value.

Thanks
Zahid.
