Europe and Worldwide Shipping

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Just wondering if I've missed the facility to do this or simply that it's not possible and if anyone has found a good workaround. 
I use Royal Mail in the UK to post everything and as costs increase have looked at various solutions, I would ideally like to offer a standard rate in the UK (which works fine), a rate for Europe, and another rate for rest of the world.  I can achieve UK and Rest of World but this seems a little unfair to charge someone in France the same rate as someone in Australia or USA.

I know other software offers the facility am I missing something?

Thanks

Richard

	This is not supported, but prior alterations to the "alternate/tiered shipping rates" were not particularly difficult. We would be comfortable tackling this for you.

	Hi Greg, Would we be looking at an expensive update for this?, also worried about future PC updates causing problems. I'm also looking for someone who could develop a revised categoryview similar to the allsaints website, I use apparel version of PC and like the idea of showing thumbnails of all available colours on the category view pages so that people don't think it's only available in the colour shown, a really nice touch although unsure if possible is that if you hover over the swatches the thumbnail image changes http://www.allsaints.com/men/t-shirts/ thanks Richard

	The closest example I have to show you in terms of pulling the swatches forward to the category page is this site: http://www.compressionstore.com/compression-socks/pc/15-20-mmHg-Mild-Support-c204.htm We've done other sites using that same code, but all were the same basic concept. Please e-mail me at my site so that we can exchange ideas about your shipping module. And to be clear, any time that one makes alterations of this nature, one must be prepared to migrate those changes forward during future upgrades.
