Free shipping on some items, shipping charges on others in same basket

[S7 Media Ltd]

Hi there,

 

I have an issue where some items in my shop are free shipping, but most items have postage charges.

 

These items are sometimes combined in the same basket, and I need to be able to charge for postage for the item that doesn't have free shipping.

 

With the same shop I have managed to do this. I managed it by creating a new carrier with free shipping and applied it only to a select group of items. I have linked two items below to add to a basket so you can try it:

You'll see with the above that it just charges postage based on any other items in the basket that have postage fees. The "Gor" product has the free shipping. The Macpaws item has postage charges.

 

However, now, we have taken a new line of items on, which needs the same set up. So we have created another free shipping carrier, but now, it charges free shipping across the board. And on the shipping screen (when you login and come to checkout), it shows that there's two shipping services (one for the free ship item, one for the charged shipping item), combines them and sends it for free.

The "DoggyRide" item is free shipping. As soon as you add that to the basket, everything has free shipping.

 

The set up is exactly the same as the previous but just won't work for some reason. Can someone shine some light please?

 

Thanks

Any ideas folks?

Hi,

 

just wondered if you ever managed to resolve this? I have exactly the same scenario but am unable to apply free shipping for just selected products. It seems to apply the free shipping for everything in the basket.

 

Thanks

Sorry for the late reply, unfortunately not. Would be interested to hear if you've had any success.
