We have the free shipping add-on installed (that allows free shipping over a minimum $ amount -- with a weight maximum) that's close to doing what we need it to do. The client needs to offer free shipping over orders of $175. That part works fine.
But, we need to be able to flag exceptions (for large/overweight items) in the admin site and do one of the two following with them:
1. The flagged exceptions would have to have a percentage of the normal (weight-based) shipping applied to them -- across the board.
- OR -
2. The flagged exceptions would have a text field where the client could just designate the reduced shipping per item.
Again, keep in mind that one of these two methods is invoked when the order total is over $175. If not, the normal weight-based shipping would be used.
We tried going with the overall maximum weight option for this add-on. But it's not going to work for us the way we need it to.
Any recommendations? Thank you so much for your help!
