How to get the cart items count and quantity?

Hi guys ,

I've been writing a plugin for shipping .

The criteria is

1 to 2 items - $8
3 to 5 items - $16
6 to 10 items - $20
more than 10 - $0


$prod_count = count( $order->products );

// Might need a loop here to count the quantity as well

if ( $prod_count > 0 ) {
If ( $prod_count > 0 && $prod_count <= 2 ){
$rate->shipping_price = 8 ;
}else if ( $prod_count > 2 && $prod_count<= 5) {
$rate->shipping_price = 16;
}else if ( $prod_count > 5 && $prod_count<= 10) {
$rate->shipping_price = 20;
}else{ $rate->shipping_price = 0; }

}

The problem is products with Options will have extra one or more counts depends on how many options the product have. please advise ?

Still waiting for a reply

I manage to narrow it down as follows

$cartClass = hikashop_get('class.cart');
$productsArray = $cartClass->get();
$cart_id  = $cartClass->cart_id;
$db = JFactory::getDBO();
$query = 'SELECT sum(cart_product_quantity)cnt FROM '.hikashop_table('cart_product').' where  cart_id  = \'$cart_id\' and cart_product_option_parent_id =  \'0\' and cart_product_quantity > \'0\' ';
$db->setQuery($query );
$db_obj = $db->loadObjectList();

// To test i get the values immediately , i directly assign the value to the shipping price
	 $rate->shipping_price = $db_obj->cnt;

Hi,

Thanks to try this request:
$query = 'SELECT sum(cart_product_quantity)cnt FROM '.hikashop_table('cart_product').' where cart_id = '.$cart_id.' and cart_product_option_parent_id = \'0\' and cart_product_quantity > \'0\' ';

The options are in tha cart object, you can use the php function var_dump() to see what is inside the object.
