Free shipping for a particular item

hi there

I have a Cart page here - http://www.davidhayward.com/cart.php - which allows the customer to add a miscellaneous payment.

I have two shipping rules based on the currency selected - flat rate of £10 for GB and $15 for US.

Trouble is if someone just adds a miscellaneous payment the shipping still gets added.

I'm trying to figure out how to offer free shipping on the miscellaneous payment.

I've tried adding a rule whereby if an item with the name of 'misc payment' is added there is no charge but the country shipping rules are overriding it. And I still need the country shipping charge if a customer adds a normal product as well as a miscellaneous payment.

Thanks for your help

You would probably have to add another column to your cart for "IsShipped" and set it to 0 or 1 where miscellaneous payments have a value of 0. Then you could include a condition in your shipping rule that requires the total of IsShipped to be greater than 0 before shipping is charged.

hi Ray

I've added the IsShipped column, and set the rules to check whether the is more than one item in the Cart with IsShipped = 1 (see screengrabs)

Then On the Add to Cart code i've added the following code:

$ATC_IsShipped = floatval("0");// column binding (or value 1 for normal products)

Which all works well for the misc item but also calculates no shipping for anything else..

I've gone wrong somewhere I know... any ideas ?

Thank you !

Try using "subtotal of column IsShipped > 0"
