VPCART supports different types of shipping calculations and can easily be modified to support just about any calculations you need. The shipping calculations are controlled by the VPCART configuration. You need to set xshippingcalc in your Software Configuration to match the method you wish to use from the list below.
|
Lookup |
Customer selects shipping method, but the amount is fixed regardless of what is being ordered. This is the default. |
|
Fixed |
You set a fixed amount by setting the following configuration options:
xFixedshippingmethod="Your shipping method" xFixedShippingcost="3.00"
If you choose to use this Fixed shipping method, you will also need to turn off the config “xshippingdatabaserecords”, by setting “xshippingdatabaserecords”to No.
