I've finally got the look of my shop the way I want, now I'm trying to get my head round an odd shipping method.

We have 2 different types of categories, dry goods and livestock.

We have 5 manual shipping methods based on day or shipping and speed of service. The first delivery service is Free and should be used for Dry Goods only. The other 4 are options for Livestock only orders or combination Livestock and Dry Goods orders.

Orders for dry goods are shipped free of charge whereas orders for livestock only or livestock and dry goods have a shipping cost. Also, orders with shipping costs should not proceed unless the total order exceeds £48 inc VAT.

Dry Goods OnlyFree Shipping applies
Livestock OnlyCheck total order exceeds £48 inc TAX and select from 4 shipping methods
Livestock and Dry GoodsCheck total order exceeds £48 inc TAX and select from 4 shipping methods

Is this possible in Hikashop?

Is it normal for the CardSave plug-in to ask for card details on my site before the redirect to CardSave for the payment?

I'm not comfortable with credit card details being requested on a page that is not https:

I have the settings on the plug in set to Direct, which should redirect to CardSave for the payment information.

API : You can choose here the API you to use for your payment. With the direct mode, the customer is sent on a different web page where he will give his credit card information. With the hosted mode (you will need SOAP installed in this case), everything will be hosted on your website and the user will enter his credit card information directly during the checkout.

Hi,

Yes it is possible.
First, create a manual shipping method with a price of 0 and a maximum volume of 0.1
Then, create 4 manual shipping methods with the price you want, a minimum price of 48.
In the Livestock products, set dimensions of 1/1/1 and that's it.

The documentation text is wrong. It's the opposite for the CardSave plugin's API option. We'll correct that

Thanks again Nicolas. I have changed the option for the payment plug-in and it now redirects.

I can also see the logic behind the shipping calculation. I have 5 shipping options, the free option configured as you described with a maximum volume of 0.1, the other 4 already had a minimum order of £48 and I have updated the dimensions of all the livestock products to 1/1/1.

However, I still do not get ANY shipping options showing during the checkout process regardless of what is in the basket. Have I missed something that assigns the shipping options to the product or category?

It's probably because the option "Force shipping regardless of weight" is turned off in the configuration of HikaShop and that you didn't set a weight in your products.

Shipping is now sorted. Thank you.

I have 2 other small niggles if you can help B)

  1. I have a few products with different variants. When viewing a DIV view of the products in a category, the add to cart button correctly changes to "Choose Option". The price being displayed is the default (smallest) item variant. Is there any way to add the form "From " in front of the price displayed for products with variants.
  2. We are using the badges option for some products. Is it possible to display the badge outside the image window?

Nicolas, I really appreciate all the help you have given me in configuring what is a really good product with so many option. I had previously tried JoomShopping and am so happy that I made the change as the support here is first class!

Hi there,

About the "From" you just have to add this line:

if(isset($this->row->has_options)){ echo JText::_('FROM').' '; }
to he file listing_price.php (Display>view) of products under the line
<span class="hikashop_product_price_full<?php echo $class; ?>">
	<?php

For the badges, try to specify a negative value for the vertical or horizontal align (-100), it should work and display the badge outside the image window :)

Thanks Eliot.

I can't believe I didn't think about negative numbers!
