Hello,

I would need to add an option during the checkout process. Client should be able to add a gift wrapping option (2€ per article).
I created a custom fields in the order table, but I don't succeed to make it work.

Could you please help me with this?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I see 4 ways do have a "gift wrapping mechanism":

- With a custom order field, you can add a yes/no choice during the checkout. However, there is no mechanism by default in HikaShop to add a fee to the cart based on what is selected in a custom order field. There is a plugin ( www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/202...rice-by-obsidev.html ) to add a fee to the cart based on what is selected in a custom order field. However, it doesn't take into account the number of products in the cart, so I don't think you'll be able to do what you want with it. So with a custom order field, if you want to do exactly what you described, it would require the development of a custom plugin, or adapting the code of the custom field price plugin to be able to take into account the number of products.

- With a custom field of the table "item", you could add your yes/no choice on the product details page of each product. Then, with the plugin www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/148...ce-calculations.html you could have it add the fee to the price of the product.

- With an option ( www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/i...ct-form.html#options ), you could add a yes/no choice on the product details page of each product. I think that's the cheapest and easiest solution.

- You could have two shipping method. One with the normal shipping fee, and one using the "formula" setting of the shipping method to take into account the quantity of the products in the cart. For example 10+2*{quantity} would mean a shipping fee of 12 for 1 product in the cart, 14 for 2, 16 for 3, etc. So the user could select between shipping without wrapping and shipping with wrapping during the checkout and the shipping fee would take that into account.

Thanks Nicolas.

I like the last solution. I set it up but I can't get both shipping methods to be displayed. What am I missing?

Hi,

I would need to know how you configured your shipping methods. Could you provide some screenshots of their settings ?

Hi Nicolas,

I enclose secreenshots of the 3 shipping methods. I'll need a 4th one (free delivery + wrapping for orders over 100 €).

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,

First, the "include virtual products price" setting should be turned on in all the shipping methods.
Second, you could use the price per product and the price fields but in that case, you should leave the formula option empty, or vice-versa.
Third, the taxes are not configured the same between all the shipping methods.

However, it doesn't seem that any of these three points should be linked to only one shipping method displaying on your checkout. Could it be that you removed the "shipping" block from the "Checkout workflow" in the HikaShop configuration ?
In that case, it would only display the default shipping method in the cart but not the shipping methods selector area.
I can't check as your website is not accessible to guests and I don't have a user account to check.

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for your help.

I found what was the issue. In the checkout settings, shipping was on "readonly".

It's now ok. Thanks!
