Shipping Options

Hi
I have Powerstore 4.5 and Ecart 5.03
I need to define some shipping rates as follows
$12 for all of Canada except Newfoundland
Newfoundland $15
Two local towns A & B in Ontario - free shipping

How do I go about doing this.
Thanks
Lorraine

this is a tricky one because of the free shipping for the two towns in Ontario, that is going to need to be done using a discount

the shipping and discount rules will need to use the following session variables in the triggers:
eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_Country
eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_State
eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_city


configure the first rule, "$12 for all of Canada except Newfoundland" as:

Triggers:
Session Variable Exists:
Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_Country" Exists

AND
Session Variable Exists:
Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_State" Exists

AND
Based on session Variable Value:
If the Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_Country" is "=" a value of "CA"

AND
Based on session Variable Value:
If the Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_State" is "!=" a value of "NL"

Calcualtion:
Flat Rate "12"

configure the second rule "Newfoundland $15" as:
Triggers:
Session Variable Exists:
Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_Country" Exists

AND
Session Variable Exists:
Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_State" Exists

AND
Based on session Variable Value:
If the Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_Country" is "=" a value of "CA"

AND
Based on session Variable Value:
If the Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_State" is "=" a value of "NL"

Calcualtion:
Flat Rate "15"

then configure a discount for each of the towns that will get free shipping an example of the first one is:

Triggers:
Session Variable Exists:
Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_Country" Exists

AND
Session Variable Exists:
Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_State" Exists

AND
Session Variable Exists:
Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_city" Exists

AND
Based on session Variable Value:
If the Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_Country" is "=" a value of "CA"

AND
Based on session Variable Value:
If the Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_State" is "=" a value of "ON"

AND
Based on session Variable Value:
If the Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_city" is "=" a value of "Town A"

Calcualtion:
Flat Rate "this->GetShipping()"


the second discount will be very similar, just change the last trigger:
If the Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_city" is "=" a value of "Town A"

to:
If the Session Variable "eCartCheckoutForm_shipping_city" is "=" a value of "Town B"

Hi
So when I have updated the ECart I upload the
WA_eCart_Definition_PHP.php
WA_Store_Cart_PHP.php
cart.php

Thanks
