Title: How to set a minimum order weight in VM2?
Post by: lindapowers on September 29, 2013, 00:22:54 AM

Hello

Simple question to which I couldnt not find an answer.

Is there any way of telling VM2 that customers must make and order of a minimum weight quantity X before they are allowed to checkout.

Imagine our minimum order weight is 5 kg, how can we set that?

This depends on VM? the checkout config? plugins?

Regards

using joomla 2.5.14 and VM 2.022e

You could make a condition for ordered weight on cart page. Use print_r thingy.

Thanks but won't even know where to start from that.

Theres no simple option around VM I guess.

I think I could just use the rules for our shipping to show shipping options above certain weight amount, and then edit the message that appears in the checkout when no shipping is available - quite simple for rupostel¡s one page checkout.

That's what I would probably do.
