Hi,
Anyone have any idea on how to set up a shipping method on VM2 based on country, zip, weight and Volume or is there is any extension available to do this?
Kind Regards,
Kevin Reynolds.
I have the same problem. I need to consider the size of the produits in my shipping methods.
Have you found a way ?
I am looking for a length (or width or height... but not weight) shipping method too and I am about to get desperate...
I have found that : http://codedonors.com/virtuemart-2-shipping-modules/exclude-shipping-method-prevent-display-p-56.html
... but I have some doubts and want to be sure, I sent a message but didn't get any answer yet... :(
Hi,
I wonder if you came to a solution, since i have the same issue on VirtueMart:
I would like to create shipping rates based on volume and not on weight.
After a short search, the only possible solution that i found was the following plug in but again i prefer not to pay and i'm not sure if it solves my issue.

Thank you in advance
I didn't find anything else...
Well I actually found some extensions that seem interesting, but after asking more to the developpers, they would not make the job I need... I was only proposed to make customization, quite expensive...
As my need is very special, maybe you can find something that would work for you :

I am going to have a look at what you found...
thank you ! :)
My "Shipping by Rules" plugin for VirtueMart 2 allows you to describe shipping rules depending on
- Amount ... Invoice amount
- Weight ... Weight of the order
- ZIP ... postal code of the order
- Products ... number of different products in the order
- Articles ... total number of articles (each prduct counted with the according quantity) in the order
- Volume, MinVolume, MaxVolume ... total/minimal/maximal volume of the products in the order
- MinLength,MaxLength, Min
- Width, MaxWidth, MinHeight, MaxHeight ... minimal/maximal extensions of the products in the order
So I think this plugin can solve both the requests for length- and for volume-based shipping rates:

If you simply want fixed shipping costs for certain maxLength, Length or Volume ranges, the Standard version of the plugin should be sufficient for your needs...
thank you Reinhold !
I am going to have a look at it right now !
Reinhold, you are my hero ! ;)
It seems to make exactly what I needed, and had been searching for months...
So a big thank you ! :)
And to celebrate that, I am on my way to get your "ordernumber" plugin too, which will save me more search.... :)
I spoke too fast... Unfortunately, I am making tests right now, and I don't get to make it do the job...
I am sending you a MP to explain my pb
Maybe my http://www.gjcwebdesign.com/joomla-virtuemart/virtuemart-20-zip--postcode-shipping-plugin.html (http://www.gjcwebdesign.com/joomla-virtuemart/virtuemart-20-zip--postcode-shipping-plugin.html) ?
If you put exactly what your requirements are it would be easier to answer.. ;)
This could be relatively easily adapted to LxWxH if that's what is required..
Cheers
thank you GJC :)
I finally have found what I needed with Reinhold's plugin, but I am happy there are more and more shipping plugins now ! :)
