Title: Display the shipping costs in the cart
Post by: osep45 on June 20, 2014, 16:48:23 PM
Hello,

I use Virtuemart for over a year for my online store and am very happy.
I now want to make some improvements, and need help.

How can I show the shipping as soon as the person consults his cart ?

Thanking you in advance for your help,

Osep45

as Pro says - if you have any filtering by zip, country etc or multiple methods then the shipping can never show until the address is given.. if you have a global rate for all shipping then remove any filtering and it should show

OK... I have installed and publish it on :
- Joomla! 2.5.13
- Virtuemart 2.0.22a

I have carefully read : http://www.kaizenmediaworks.com/pro-ship-virtuemart-2-0-shipping-plugin-module
Thank you PRO, for this great plugin !

This plugin uses multiplication of the rate you set and the order weight.
It also has free shipping over certain order total.
But can it set a shipping fee under a certain order total ?

My shipping cost rule is quite simple:
- Orders between 0.75 € and 24.50 €  => shipping cost = 1.55 €.
- Beyond 24.5 €  => shipping cost = 0 €.

Is it possible ?
