I'm setting up free shipping for certain products we are selling and I'm
running into problems. My first shipping method "usshipping" is based on
price. So I have created a usertag that will calculate the total shipping
price for my basket while removing items that have been marked as Free
Shipping. So I put the following in my shipping.asc file
usshipping US Standard [shipping-subtotal] 0 0 0.00
usshipping US Standard [shipping-subtotal] 0 200 8.00
and so on.
However, when I have a shipping subtotal of 0.00 i.e. items in basket will
ship free, then this will just return an error on the checkout page
indicating that it can't find a method for usshipping. The shipping cost is
set to 0.00
If I change my usertag to always return at least a value of 1.00 and modify
my shipping.asc file as follows
usshipping US Standard [shipping-subtotal] 1 1 0.00
usshipping US Standard [shipping-subtotal] 1 200 8.00
then the error no longer appears but the shipping method isn't displayed.
Again the shipping cost is 0.00
If I make one final modifiaction to the shipping.asc as follows
usshipping US Standard [shipping-subtotal] 1 1 1.00
usshipping US Standard [shipping-subtotal] 1 200 8.00
then everything works but my shipping cost is of course 1.00 .
Is there a way to circumvent Interchange from thinking that a subtotal of
zero means it should report an error and when the shipping cost is zero it
should still return the shipping method. I'm currently using 4.7.5
