TOPIC:

Hello,

I am looking for an easy way to have free shipping on certain items.

My client wants to keep the current shipping rules but have the ability to assign certain products and/or orders free shipping.

Is this possible and if so, how is it done?

Thanks so much for your help.

Kurt

Dear Kurt,
Do you want free shipping for the whole cart, if one of those special products is in the cart? In that case, prepend a rule:
Or do you want to exclude certain products just from the calculation of the quantities like weight or amount, on which your shipping costs are based? In that case, see e.g. open-tools.net/forum/shipping-by-rules-p...t-of-a-category.html (that thread is about excluding a category, but the same can be done based on skus).

Best regards,
Reinhold

Hi Reinhold,

When I enter the code that you sent me, I get the following error:
Unknown error occurred during evaluation of rule 'Conditin=contains_any(SKUs, "product1-sku", "product2-sku")'.
Assignments are not allows inside expressions (rule given was 'Conditin=contains_any(SKUs, "product1-sku", "product2-sku")')

I am sorry I am slow but not sure what the issue is.

How would I write the code if I wanted the "product SKu" to be "FreeShipping?"

Thanks for you r help.

Kurt

Dear Kurt,
You misspellt "Condition", so the plugin thinks you are trying to assign to an unknown variable "Conditin"... It should work if you fix that typo.

Best regards,
Reinhold

Good morning Reinhold,

Thanks for the quick response. Sorry, my email jumped out of my hands (lol)

I forgot to mention that even when I fix the spelling, I still get the following error:
Unknown error occurred during evaluation of rule 'Condition=contains_any(SKUs, "product1-sku", "product2-sku")'.
Assignments are not allows inside expressions (rule given was 'Condition=contains_any(SKUs, "product1-sku", "product2-sku")')
What I want is any item with the "product SKU=FreeShipping" to have free shipping.

I feel I am so close to the solution, let me know your thoughts.

Thanks you so much!

Kurt

Dear Kurt,
Unfortunately, I'm unable to reproduce the problem. On your installation, what is the PHP version, the Joomla version, the VM version and the version of the plugin?

I have tried the following rule on demo.open-tools.net/ and things work just fine:The two products with these SKUs are "Dangerous Product" and "Standard Produkt 10".Whenever one of them is in the cart, this rule properly offers free shipping, without any error message like you get.

Best regards,
Reinhold
