Hi, I have a website which is www.adams-bathrooms.co.uk

currently I have weights set for all the products, the way I have it set up is that anything under 50kg is £10 shipping and anything over 50kg is £35 shipping, unfortunately at the minute it is still asking customers to select shipping option on checkout, I want this to select automatically based on weight, any help is appreciated

its joomla 2.5 and virtuemart 2.0

If those really are the version numbers then you need to update! See http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=118683.0

it is version 2.0.16, when I select update to the latest version it is not updating, but surely updating it will not solve the postage issue, as the options exist on the version I have they just dont seem to be playing ball, any help appreciated

lee_h

can anybody help with this problem?

In the current version (VM2.6) the correct shipping plugin by weight is autoselected - working fine for me on test sites.

for some reason when I click update in virtuemart it goes back to welcome page, then when I go back onto virtuemart it is still showing as update available

lee_h

is it because my site is in joomla 2.5 and not 3.0?

I have managed to find the problem after hours of reading forum posts and info I have found on google, apparantly there is a bug in VM - Payment, Moneybookers Sofortüberweisung plugin

this was preventing the shop from autoselecting shipping based on weight
