Empty cart keeps shipping amount

[restodo]

Hi,

I'm on VM 2.6.0 and I'm using Standard Shipping plugin.

For example I have:

Shipment 1 cost  USD 38
Shipment 2 cost  USD 45
Shipment 3 cost  USD 100

If I remove the products from my cart and one of the shipments was selected, when the site say that my cart is empty the amount it isn't.

If I choose for example Shipment 2, USD 45 will be added to my cart.
When I remove the products in cart, the amount in cart stills USD 45.


Could you tell me where can I check to tell the code to clear Shipment Plugin?


Regards.

Somebody can help me?

you can try to disable cache (Joomla! cache and 3rd party extension), use other web browser,...

it is not a cash or browser issue, it is to do with VM not clearing the session variable for shipping, when there are no products in the cart

Yes, I'm thinking on something like that but I don't know how can I solve it.

Do you know?

I don't think this is a bug of VM. But you can use this code if you want to hide the shipment cost when no product in cart:
Apply for VM 2.6
File to edit: components/com_virtuemart/views/cart/tmpl/default_pricelist.php (please creating template override)
Line 366:

Code Select Expand

<td align="right"><?php if($prow->product_name) echo $this->currencyDisplay->createPriceDiv ('salesPriceShipment', '', $this->cart->pricesUnformatted['salesPriceShipment'], FALSE); ?> </td>
Line 411:

Code Select Expand


<td align="right"><div class="bold"><?php if($prow->product_name) echo $this->currencyDisplay->createPriceDiv ('billTotal', '', $this->cart->pricesUnformatted['billTotal'], FALSE); ?></div></td>

Yes Joomtut

You can create the override as you suggested but the issue is still that the variable $this->cart->pricesUnformatted['salesPriceShipment']

Is left populated when there are no products in the cart

It should be raised as a bug or "unwanted feature"

Yes, I think the same to you. I hope some admin o developer read this post.

Have you tried doing it? Are you doing the right thing?

As I said, you can use this code if you want to hide the shipment cost  when no product in cart.

In this code, I use IF conditions to recognize when there are products in your shopping cart:

Code Select Expand

if($prow->product_name)

You can apply it to wherever you want, not only the shipment cost.

Hi,
I also had this problem.
In shipment methods the Lowest Weight should be more then 0 g

[JestaBlunt]

add 1 to the minimal count of products of the shipping type (in german its "Mindestanzahl von Produkten")...works like a charm

[GJC Web Design]

can confirm JestaBlunt solution is the correct one -- just choose a minimum of 1 product in your shipping method
