rothjoseph Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 The topic says it all. How would I set up OSCommerce to charge 5.00 for the first item and 2.00 for each additional item that I am shipping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kieran_mullen Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 There is a contribution for this but it has not been added in some time and it doesnt allow you to add it product by product. :-( Let me know if you find anything better. http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1852 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 (edited) Don't try to overcomplicate it... All you need to do is... $2 per item. + handling fee: $3 Hi Im sorry but in the mod time customers will not buy if they see a "handling fee" they just will not order. you need to: Try is: ================================================================================ Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! first ! ================================================================================ Shipping Table The shipping cost is based on the total cost or weight of items. Example: 25:8.50,50:5.50,etc.. Up to 25 charge 8.50, from there to 50 charge 5.50, etc ie, 25:8.50,50:5.50,10000:0.00 so this is: 1-25 items $8.50 26-50 items $5.50 51-10000 items $0.00 So 1-3 items $1 4-5 items $2 6-8 items $3 9-10000 items $0.00 ( this is added if you charge $0.00, if more than 8 items are in the cart (FREE SHIPPING)) or 9-10000 items $3.00 ( this is added if the most you will charge is $3.00) your Shipping Table needs to be: 3:1.00,5:2.00,8:3.00,10000:0.00 or 3:1.00,5:2.00,8:3.00,10000:3.00 Now, how do we set this up? ================================================================================ STEP 1 This is to set-up the Shipping Table ================================================================================ 1, go to the osC admin >> Modules >> Shipping Modules >> Table Rate 2, click on Action 3, click on install 4, click on edit 5, click on True 6, input your Shipping Table (ie. 3:1.00,5:2.00,8:3.00,10000:0.00 ) 7, click on weight 8, input Handling fee for this shipping method. (if you do not charge for this then put 0 in) 9, tax class (as your needs) 10, shipping Zone (as your needs) 11, Sort Order (as your needs BUT THIS MUST NOT MATCH OTHER shipping sort orders, and should be above 0) 12, click update. that is the table set up. ================================================================================ STEP 2 this is to change the text that is shown in the checkout Delivery Information page ================================================================================ Go to includes/languages/english/checkout_shipping.php and change this (about line 25) as needed: define('TEXT_ENTER_SHIPPING_INFORMATION', 'This is currently the only shipping method available to use on this order.'); now go to includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/table.php and change as needed: now have a look at checkout Delivery Information page and redo above till it is ok for your needs ================================================================================ STEP 3 setting up the products ================================================================================ now for the products 1, click Catalog 2, click Categories/Products 3, then go to a product (I am not going in to how to set up a product) 4, got to the bottom of the page and you should see "Products Weight:" Box 5, now input the number 1 6, click on preview (THIS MUST BE DONE or it will not get saved or work) 7, check this is what you need 8, IF OK AND ONLY IF OK 9, IF IT IS NOT OK FOR YOU THEN click the back and redo it until it is OK 10, when it is OK click the insert that should be it! Now got to your shop and do a demo/test order and the shipping should now work, if not then go back over the above before re posting. now repeat step's products 1 to 10 for each of your products ================================================================================ The End enjoy!! ================================================================================ ================================================================================ Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! Back up ! first ! ================================================================================ Edited August 31, 2008 by West One Hosting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
