hi guys,

i have a supplier that drop ships some of my products. quantity 1 to 5, shipping cost is $8. quantity 6-12 shipping is $14. quantity over 12 shipping is free. is there a way to accomplish this in smith cart?

Next issue is custom fields. Instead of using variants, i decided to use a drop down menu on the checkout page with standard filter sizes and a custom text field for custom filter sizes (air conditioner filters). i ran some test orders but i don't see the info in the "manage orders" area. all other user entered info shows up, but i'm not seeing this info. where should i see it?

Thanks!

Brandon

The cart doesnt support defining your shipping cost by the qty of a sku in the cart. Here are the shipping options the cart currently supports:

  • Real Time Shipping Rates
    • UPS
    • USPS
    • Canada Post
    • Cart calculates real time shipping rates using "from" and "to" zip codes and product weight
  • Calculate Shipping By Order Total
  • Calculate Shipping By Order Weight
  • Calculate Shipping By Zip code
  • Calculate Shipping By Fixed Item Shipping Costs (e.g. Shipping Cost By Product)
  • Specify All Orders As Free Shipping
  • Admin defined shipping methods (e.g. Ground, Next Day, 2nd Day, Priority, etc
  • Configure shipping methods/costs at the order level or product level

Regarding your 2nd question about the custom field being saved to the database, what page in the cart checkout did you define the custom field on there are several pages in the checkout that you can add custom fields to.

The custom fields defined on the step 1 page of the checkout are stored in the smith_customer table. Currently the custom dropdown on step 1 is not viewable from the manage order details page however it is saved to the smith_customer table so to view that field you will have to use a 3rd party reporting tool like crystal reports or the dnn module idoogrid or you could just query the data from sql mgmt studio. Adding the custom field to the manage order detail page is on our dev list.
