Title: Shipping by size and weight
Post by: uglyfashion on December 26, 2011, 00:39:11 AM
Hi all,

I've just noticed the new VM2 (hurruh).  At first glance it seems pretty decent.  I must ask a question.  one thing that I needed in the old VM, which I never solved.

The products vary in size and weight.  For example: say I want to sell a KG of polystyrene.. just a made up example, it's likely to take up a decent bit of space, hence the cost of shipping goes up.

How can I handle this type of thing in VM?  I have some smaller by heavy products, and some small and light products and then some larger products.  Etc.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe VM2 comes with a shipping plugin that does exactly what you're asking about. Have you looked at the "VM - Shipment, By weight, ZIP and countries" plugin?
