as i cant find an automated solution for shipping freight, i need a shipping quote. on this site raptorengines.com/ you can checkout hit request a quote my boss gets an email checks the shipping cost and returns a price to the customer which they then type in the box and are able to proceed to check out. similar to this www.hikashop.com/en/forum/4-how-to/69230...-hikashop.html#69405

but not quite. is there a way to do that? as stated in the other thread i need to do this without disrupting the ability of people to check out when ups is an available option.

thanks

Hi,

You can create a custom field of the table "order" and of the type "text" with the Business edition so that the user can enter a price in the checkout and then, add the line:
$rates[$k]->shipping_price = (float)$order->custom_field_column_name;

(replace custom_field_column_name by the column name of the custom field)

before the line:
if(isset($rate->shipping_params->shipping_per_product) && $rate->shipping_params->shipping_per_product) {

in the file plugins/hikashopshipping/manual/manual.php and the manual shipping methods will all use the price entered in the field by the user.

It can be possible in free version, but it will require lot of changes and good PHP knowledge.
Thanks to understand that we can't support this customization.
