Free shipping message

Postby info@.....com » Mon Aug 05, 2019 1:25 pm

Hello,

We have products from one category that have zero shipping when you purchase more than x units. We'd like to know if it is possible to display a text at checkout that informs customers that if they purchase that quantity they will get free shipping.

Thank you so much

Regards

I did that by creating an override and then altering the code in mod_virtuemart_cart->default.php and then displayed it in a module position. A bit of a hack but very quick and effective.

hello, i think the best way to do this is at the product details somewhere around the add to cart button.

let me know which solution you are looking for and i can try to post a snippet for that here:
- if any product is in a specific category then the whole order got free shipping
- if all products are in a specific category then the whole order got free shipping

please note that VM3.6.2 (and prior) has a bug with the category filter (at shipping methods) and may cause a shipping method not to work properly (giving error at the checkout after confirm). there is a dev version which fixes this.

best regards, stan
