Display how much to get free shipping - Based on Cart Rules

[lyros]

Hello,

 

I believe this is a feature that many might be looking for. I would like to know how to show to each customer how much does he have to add to his cart in order to get free shipping, depending on his zone.

 

I have been looking for this for a while and didn't find a solution. I could only find how to get that amount which is set at Shipping > Preferences > "Free shipping starts at", which is not what I need.

 

The correct way should be ( in my opinion ) to show the amount set at the Cart Rules, where I can choose a carrier.

 

I have noticed that there is a function that already does this

$cart_rules = $params['cart']->getCartRules();

in file modules>blockcart>blockcart.php, but this only gets the "Free shipping" rule if the cart total has reached this amount.

 

Is it posible to get this amount , by giving the ID of the carrier, even if the cart total has not reached this amount?

 

I hope that you understand what I mean...

 

Thanks!

Hello

Thanks Paul,

 

I have already read this tutorial, but it is about the Shipping>Preferences amount (or in 1.5 Shipping->Shipping), which, as I mentioned, is not what I need. I also believe that in cases you need different "Free shipping starts at" with different carriers this will not work correctly.

 

For example:

Free shipping to UK starts at 20$

Free shipping to Europe starts at 40$

Free shipping to USA and Asia starts at 80$

Free shipping to Australia starts at 120$

 

So then if the customer is logged in he will see the correct amount.

 

I think that it should be based on the Cart Rules, where you can choose specific carriers.

 

Any idea or suggestion?

Bump, anyone managed to find an appropriate code for this?
