Hello everyone, I am trying to attempt to create the shipping for my site.
I was looking at this post - http://mezzanine-users.narkive.com/AOk7Y6Kl/cartrige-custom-shipping-by-country-and-product-category which I thought was at the right track. I need to set shipping cost for countries as well as different cost for quantity. If more than 5 items bought, the calculation of shipping would cost more than one item. However, Melvyn Sopacua *su*ggested something I did not quiet understand. here as quoted - If this is the extent of your shipping rules, you may get away with this approach. From experience with other shopping carts, I highly suggest you implement a rule-based approach as opposed to a property approach. Approach like an email filter: - You define a state formulated by a set of conditions - Which result in one or more actions - And has post-processing flags, like "stop further rule processing if used" The implementation is more complex, but the resulting flexibility is worth it and much of the code can be reused for different types of business logic, like follow-up emails, discounts and available payment methods: - Send a "please review our product" reminder, if customer has not reviewed and has received product x days ago. - Give 10% cart discount to customers who have spent at least x ammount last year and don't apply any other cart discount rules - Offer "Pay within 30 days" payment method only to customers of the customer group "B2B" with credit limit > order ammount - Don't offer 24 hour delivery if shipper api qualifies customer address as 'rural' My 2c. -- Has anyone done the shipping and is it possible to view the code?
