Few products are free and few products are paid

2 Replies

I have two products Prod A and Prod B.

Prod A is always FREE and shipping should not be calculated for it.

When I put both products in the cart, the shipping should only be applied to Prod B at different values. For example: Prod B cost €10 the shipping = €5. Prod B x 2 = €20 the shipping = €7. If Prod B x 2 has Prod A in the cart the shipping should still be €7.

Thanks for your question. You need two shipping methods. One for Free products (i.e Product A) and another for Paid products (i.e Product B). Also we don’t want to show Free shipping if Paid product in the cart. For that, we will have to use Group mode option. So lets first set Group  mode option

 In Global setting -> Group Option tab of xshippingpro,  Please select Group1 is Highest.
Now lets create Free method
Free Method
 
1. Create new method and provide a name
2. In general setting, select Group is Group1
3. In Products/Category tab, select product rule “Any of the selected products with others”. Choose your product A
4. In Price setting tab, select Rate type is Flat. Enter Price 0
Paid Method
 
1. Create another method and provide a name
2. In general setting, select Group is Group1
3. In Products/Category tab, select product rule “Any of the selected products with others”. Choose your product B
4. In Price setting tab, select Rate type is Quantity- Method Specific. Enter Following unit ranges
Start      End      Cost      Per Unit Block       Allow Partial
0            1            5                   0                         NO
1             2          7                   0                           NO
and so on…

Weight based shipping with free shipping option using xshipppingpro

4 Replies

Hi,
can you please help me with configuration of plugin?

I have weight type of shipping in 7 weight ranges and i need to implement also the free shipping when the total price of cart or order is more than 50 € and under 10kg?! Is something like this possible?

Thank you very much

Hi

Thanks for contacting.
For achieving your scenario, you need two shipping methods. One for weight based and another for Free shipping. Since we don’t want to show Weight based shipping if free shipping is available during checkout, so we need to use group mode for that.
So please go to Global setting -> Group Option in xshippingpro. Now Select Group1 is Lowest
Now lets make first method for weight based.
Weight Based Shipping
——————————–
1. Create a new method and give it a name
2. Under General Tab, Select Group is Group1
3. Under Price Setting tab, Select Rate type is weight
4. Now Enter your unit ranges. For example:
Start       End          Cost          Per Unit Block      Allow Partial
0              10             $$                  0                          NO
10            20             $$                 0                           NO
and so on. Here $$ means shipping price for the respective ranges

Hi, Cloud you please help me to resolve a confusion?

My store use 0.1 kg as the unit weight, the unit price for each 0.1 kg is about $0.7.

For instance:
7.33 kg Shipping cost = 73.3*$0.7 = $51.31.

How can I combine this options?

Thanks.

Thanks for your question.  For achieving your goal, please do followings.

  1. Under Price setting tab, select the Shipping by to Weight
  2.  Now Enter Unit Ranges as follows

Start    End       Cost        Per Unit Block       Allow Partial
0            1000       0.7             0.1                                 NO

Problem with multiple shipping

2 Replies
I have different categories with different shipping price per unit.
For instance:
-books shipping cost 3.50€ per book
-bikes costs 9.90€ per bike
If someone buys 1 book + 1 bike he has to pay 3.50+9.90, if he buys 2 books + 1 bike he has to pay 3.50*2 + 9.90
In addition to that, I would like to have:
– with total < 150 € = apply rules above
– with total > 150€ = free shipping on everything

How can I combine those options?

Thank you for your help.
Thanks for your question. Since different categories have different shipping price, you need to create a shipping method for each category. For example, for the categories books and bines, you need total 3 shipping methods for achieving your goal.  First 2 methods for the categories and third one for the free shipping.
Finally, you want to sum up of different categories prices.  So first we will have to setup group mode option for summing up. Please go to Global Setting -> Group Option.  Now select Group1 is Sum 
Lets create the shipping methods now.
Method 1 (For Books):
  1.  Create a new method.
  2.  Under General Setting, Select Group is Group1
  3.  Under Category/Products Tab, Select Category Rule is “Any of the selected Categories with others”
  4. Now choose category Books
  5.  Under Price setting tab, Select Rate Type is “Quantity – Method Specific“
  6.  Now enter Unit Ranges as follows

   Start    End       Cost        Per Unit Block       Allow Partial
0            999         3.5               1                                       NO

7. Under Other tab, enter Order Total Ranges 0 to 150

Method 2 (For bikes):

  1.  Create a new method.
  2.  Under General Setting, Select Group is Group1
  3.  Under Category/Products Tab, Select Category Rule is “Any of the selected Categories with others”
  4. Now choose category bikes
  5.  Under Price setting tab, Select Rate Type is “Quantity – Method Specific“
  6.  Now enter Unit Ranges as follows

Method 3 (Free shipping):

  1.  Create a new method.

It is possible to achieve free shipping at a certain order total in two ways.  One approach requires one shipping method and another requires two shipping methods.  In this example, it will offer free shipping after an order total amount of $500
Approach 1  – using One shipping method

2. Now go to Price Setting Tab and select the Shipping By to  SubTotal. Now enter the price ranges and their corresponding shipping cost as follows

0                500            $$**                   0                            0
501            99999        0                         0                            0
** here $$ denotes the shipping cost when the order total is under  $500
