Applying weight ranges costs to cart

[Genghis]

Hi All,

 

I am using Prestashop 1.4.7.0.

 

I have created a weight range but it does not get applied when I add an item to the cart.

 

I have set up a carrier with it's Zones, weight range and Country and made it my default.

 

I have tried to keep everything very simple in as much as I have made every item weigh 1lb.

 

There are two areas that I can see where the weight of an item can be added. The first is under the 'info' tab of the item and then if you have a combination set up you can add it there also.

 

It appears that if you place a weight in both these areas of an item, Prestashop (1.4.7.0) combines them. This is an easy one to remedy as I just remove the weight setting from one area.

 

If I leave 'Additional Shipping cost' for an item blank no shipping cost is applied, if I do it does. This is the problem. I want the shipping cost to picked up from my carriers weight range. It is only ever picked up from the 'Additional Shipping cost'.

 

In both cases none of the shipping costs are ever picked up from the weight range I have set up.

 

My weight ranges are:

 

Included___Excluded___Shipping Cost___No. Of Items__Weight

__1lb_______1.1lb_______£1.99___________1________1lb

__2lb_______2.1lb_______£3.50___________2________2lb

__3lb_______3.1lb_______£5.00___________3________3lb

__4lb_______4.1lb_______£6.50___________4________4lb

__5lb_______5.1lb_______£8.00___________5________5lb

 

All the way up to 10lb.

 

As the weight or the number of items being purchased increases the shipping cost should decrease.

 

I have set 'Free Shipping' to start from either 5lb's or £35, both these work fine. This at least proves the items weight is being picked up.

 

I have found many posts where applying a 'weight range' for shipping has caused problems and I have used many of the recommendations to see if they will fix the issue I'm having to no avail.

 

This is my first set up and installation of Prestashop so I am on a bit of a learning curve. I'm hoping this is me being really stupid rather than a bug!

 

Any advice on where I should look or setting I may have over looked would be much appreciated.
