Another Free Shipping Question

[johnny70]

I currently have several options for shipping, 1st, 2nd, recorded and special delivery. These are all priced individually based on weight.

My free shipping is set at £30, but when it comes to the checkout it still allows the customer to choose which level of shipping they want 1st, 2nd, recorded or special deilvery,(although it doesn't charge them) is there anyway to stop this screen, as I want to send the Free Shipping packets with courier instead and not allow them a choice. As a couple of customers have picked special delivery and had complained that it wasn't sent that way, even though in my terms and conditions it sates it will be sent with a courier, people aren't reading this

Thanks,
John.

You'll have to use a bit of coding for it.

There are two ways:


1) The place where the shipping options are displayed is /themes/prestashop/order-carrier.tpl
In it there's a loop that goes through all the shipping options, you can disable the carriers by name if the shipping is free.

2) Removing them at the source, it's a bit more complex and would require changes to /classes/Carrier.php and the function that gets the available carriers.

Thanks , could you be morespecific on the code I need to remove please, I have only just started using FTP to have a look around the back end, so I'm still pretty new to this.

Thanks,
John.

If you're asking me to code it for you and post it here, I cannot...

If I had done it before, I would gladly post it here, but I am too busy to create custom code for free.

I tried to be as specific as I can to point you in the right direction, and maybe someone else who tried / did it before can share it.

Sorry, I didn't realise it would be that complicated, of course I would not expect you to do it for free.

Has anyone done this then???

Thanks,
John.
