Title: Display only three destinations for shipping
Post by: hernan on December 01, 2016, 14:59:36 PM
Using:
Joomla 3.6.2
Virtuemart 3.0.16

My shop can only send productos to 4 destinations.
How could i set the forms so that the client only select one of those four when he has to choose a shipping address/location?

Thanks!

It is essential that you update to Joomla 3.6.4!!
See

Check if you have new/unknown Joomla users with administrator permissions - if so hackers have paid you a visit!

Thanks for noticing. That's very important!
But, this site is a scholar project, so, i don't mind about the security, the professor will care about the functionality.

If this are predifined location then use 4 time standard shipment and add in the description the locations.
You can hide by CSS for eg the user shipment address zone.

Personally I would fail a student who was building a sample webshop and did not pay attention to site security.

jenkinhill: I would too. But it dependes on the context.
This site was developed to learn how to manage a project under a development process, not to focus on tecnical issues.

Thanks  for responding Studio 42, i think i will use another stategy.

I mean the in a development process, the security must be integrated in the strategy.
It's has if you build a bridge  and the worker do unsecured job, because the manager forgot the helmets.

Hi
Go to Configuration > Countries, and only publish the 4 countries you can send to.
