Restrictions not working

-- HikaShop version -- :2.2.1


Hello,

I am having an issue with configuring my shipping. I tried to restrict a manual flat rate shipping option to just the lower 48 states of USA by creating a zone that covered the rest of the world and adding that zone as a restriction. However it did not work and I cannot add any zone as a restriction and have the flat rate shipping option work. I also cannot get UPS to come up as an option at all.

I have weights for my products (same units) and the flat rate shipping option works if I have zero restrictions, but I can't go live with it like that obviously.

Any help would be appreciated and if I could suggest a feature for later versions, it would be offer an "all but this" option for selecting restrictions.

Hi,

Ok, thanks for the help but it is still not working. I just tried this -

I created a new shipping zone, saved it and added just "Afghanistan" as a sub zone. I then used that shipping zone as a restriction to my flat rate shipping. Both UPS and my manual flat rate shipping are published. When I enter an address in USA I get the message "No shipping method found".

Also, when I have only the UPS plugin enabled then I get the same message "No Shipping method found". I also double checked and my products have weight.

Hi,

Regarding your UPS shipping method can you follow each step of the shipping methods section of the Hikashop FAQ . Also can you show me some screenshots of how did you configured your 2 shipping methods ?

Hello. I followed the FAQ. I can get the manual shipping to work, but as soon as I add a single zone restriction, it will not work anymore. screen shot should be below. I have tried it on the live site, and on a test site. I get the same problem. I am using Joomla 3 and a yootheme template with their widgetkit enabled. If it would help I can give you the test address and admin info via private message. I hate to ask for help but I can't find anything on this in the forum that has worked for me. The settings that are not in the pic are blank.

The problem is probably coming from the zone that you are using for your manual shipping zone restriction can you show me some screenshots of how did you configured it ?

Here is the zone config screen shot.:

Ok, so can you give me the test address and a temporary back-end access through a private message ?

Hi,
I've done some tests through your website :
1. Your manual shipping method wasn't showing because you didn't published it

2. Regarding the UPS shipping method, you should configure it before using it.

Hi,

Yes, it was unpublished because I was testing the UPS for error messages as you suggested.

As I am trying to explain, the manual shipping works, but ONLY when there is no restriction added. That is what I need help with. There is no restriction on it now, so when you tested it did you get it to work with a shipping zone restriction? I am unable to get it to work with one.

Hi,
Sure I tested it with a shipping zone restriction and your shipping method was only showing with a shipping address from Afghanistan, can you tell me with which shipping address do you test it ?

I tried to ship to Colorado. When there is a restriction to Afghanistan it does not work. Or a restriction to anywhere. If I add 1 state, or 1 country or 1 zone to shipping restrictions, the whole shipping plug in will not work for an address in USA.

What shipping restriction worked for you?

If you want to allow shipping to USA or just Colorado you'll just have to add the state to your shipping zone, I added the state of Colorado and it worked fine now your shipping method only show when your customer have a shipping address from Afghanistan or from the state of Colorado.

Ah. I get it now. Thank you so much for your help. I had been trying to use the shipping zones as a place you could NOT ship to. Not as the places you could ONLY ship to.
