Title: Shipping rules (or plugin for) in VM 4
Post by: Maurizio67 on February 08, 2023, 18:03:45 PM
Hello,
I'm going to complete a store using the last VM release and I need to configure some shipping rules that apply an added cost for some range of ZIP Codes.
I see some Plugins for complex rules but they are for VM rel 3.
I don't think I can use them in this case but I need to apply the surcharge only for ranges of ZIP...
And, of course, for that ZIP I would have only the surcharged rule (not both standard and surcharged one).
Can someone please give me some suggestions?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.
Maurizio

I don't fully understand what you need from your description but my postcode plugin can be configured for most purposes ..  if not I can extend it..

J4 - VM4 & 3 compatible

BTW - most VM3 plugins will be VM4 compatible when using J3

Thank you GJC Web Design,
you're right, I probably wasn't clear enough.
What I need is to be able to set a surcharge for a range of zip codes.
For that range, only the rate with surcharge must appear.
Can your plugin do this?

Thank you in advance
Maurizio

what do u mean by a surcharge?

So generally (local Italian? ) postcodes cost X

but certain groups and ranges of postcodes cost X + Y?

Yes  -- the plugin can find sets ( ranges of postcodes ) and set distinct prices for them + have default pricing for postcodes not in these defined groups/ranges
