Cart rules & free shipping

[Jebi]

Hi, I already set up the cart rules for free shipping and it works fine in the shopping cart summary calculation. I have 9 diferent carriers and just some of them are free, the others are too expensive. The problem is in the shipping page it shows the real price for the transport and is not appying the cart rule because it seems this is just for the summary.  

 

I cannot find a variable in the order-carrier.tpl shipping page with the information that a few of the transports are free.

 

Anybody can help me?

 

Thanks.

Hi jebi,

Do you mean with "shipping page" one of the steps in the checkout? Is the correct rule applied to the first summary page of the checkout, or only at the end?

 

Maybe it helps when you share a link where we can have a look how it works right now. Also give us an example of one of the cart rules you created. Maybe we see a clue what's wrong in there.

Hi Pascal, right this is one of the pages in the checkout. What I found finally is that there are two options to do this:

 

- First: set up "free shipping starts at" option in the shipping handling page at backoffice. In this case everything works fine in the three pages of the checkout that the transports prices appears. The problem of this choice is that works for all the carriers, even they are so expensive.

 

- Using "cart rules" shipping price is not ok in "summary" and "Shipping" sections of the checkout, but is right in the "payment" page. By this way the users will think that something is wrong.

 

I'm using 1.5.6.2.

 

Thanks.

I found one sollution for this. The best thing is not to use cart rules, use different carriers, finally I set up a regular provider with the right weights. And I also set up a free delivery carrier with price ranges between 50-100 € and price 0 and the limit for this carrier is 15 kg in the maximum package weight.

 

I'm so happy now!!!
