Hi,

May I know where the is code for onBeforeOrderCreate? As I need to set the order_shipping_method field for order that have multivendor.

For single vendor's order, the value of order_shipping_method will be inserted but multivendor's order will not.

Kindly refer the attachment for reference.

Thanks.

Hi,

You can indeed implement the onBeforeOrderCreate event in a custom plugin to change the value of order_shipping_method dynamically during the order creation.

To do that, you need to create your own Joomla plugin of the group "hikashop".
A joomla plugin has two files:
- a PHP file to implement ( for example changeshippingmethod.php )
- a XML file to define it (for example changeshippingmethod.xml )
And both in a zip you can install through the Joomla extensions installer screen.
Here is an example for the PHP file:

<?php

// No direct access
defined('_JEXEC') or die;

class plgHikashopChangeShippingMethod extends JPlugin
{
	public function onBeforeOrderCreate(&$order, &$do)
	{


		// Update the shipping method for the order
		$order->order_shipping_method = 'my_shipping_method';
	}
}
And for example the XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<extension version="3.1" type="plugin" group="hikashop" method="upgrade">
	<name>PLG_HIKASHOP_CHANGESHIPPINGMETHOD</name>

	<authorUrl>https://yourwebsite.com</authorUrl>
	<version>1.0.0</version>
	<description>PLG_HIKASHOP_CHANGESHIPPINGMETHOD_DESC</description>
	<files>
		<filename plugin="changeshippingmethod">changeshippingmethod.php</filename>
	</files>
	<config>
	</config>
</extension>
