Hi,

I have a webshop that sells books and products in different categories.
And I use two different warehouses.

This is the situation:
Books and products can be ordered from one or both warehouse
When books and products are ordered only one time should there be shippingcosts.

When one book is ordered from warehouse A, the shippingcost is amount X.
When two or more books are ordered from warehouse A, the shippingcost is amount Y.
When products are ordered from warehouse B, the shippingcost is K.
When products are ordered from warehouse B and the total amount is above a certain amount, there are no shippingcosts.
When any number of books are ordered from warehouse A and one or more products are ordered from warehouse B only one time there should be shippingcosts, now there are shippingcosts both for goods from warehouse A and B.

How to solve this that the proper amount of shippingcosts is calculated?

Hi,

So, you said "When any number of books are ordered from warehouse A and one or more products are ordered from warehouse B only one time there should be shippingcosts, now there are shippingcosts both for goods from warehouse A and B."
This is indeed how the warehouse / shipping methods system works in HikaShop.
What do you mean by "only one time there should be shippingcosts" ?
What should be the shipping cost in that case ?
X ? Y ? K ? Or another ?

You can try with the plughin from Hikashop marketplace called Weights : www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/136...ghts-by-obsidev.html
Using this you can create multiple prices based on wheight, and you can have 2 or more shipping methods using this plugin, and you can use restricions to set for what warehouse each shipping method is available.
I don't know if you can sell from two warehouses in the same time and to split the shipping cost with this method, I did't test it.

You can also take a look at this: www.hikashop.com/forum/shipping-methods/...hipping-methods.html

Hi,

I have seen your options and took a look at the latest suggestion.
This seems to be the solution for me, great!

However, it didnt work for me.
I have downloaded the plugin for multiple coupons added to the cart.
I installed it using the Joomla Installer and it looks like it is there for HikaShop to use.
I have also added it to the plugins available in the configuration section / plugins.
Still only one coupon is added to the checkout / cart and not more which should be the case.

Did I miss any action I should also take?

Kind regards,
Winfried

Addional information:

I have deleted all the warehouses in Hikashop.
As a result all products are now withou any warehouse associated with.

However I still get different shippingcosts for all of the warehouse there were before.

When I look at the database I see there are four rows, for each deleted warehouse, but when I access this table, it shows it is empty.
The table involved is the %%_hikashop_warehouse

Hope this helps you to investigate deeper in this topic.

Hi,

Just deleting the warehouses won't be enough. You want to run a massaction with an action "update the values" on the "product_warehouse_id" column in "int" mode with the value 0.
Also, you want to edit each shipping method and save it once to remove the warehouse selection in the database for each one.

Regarding the multi coupon plugin. Once you've installed it, you want to go to the Joomla plugins manager and enable it there.
Then, you should be able to add several coupons during the checkout automatically. There is no setup to do besides enabling the plugin.

About the warehouses:
This works, great!

About the coupons plugin, this one still does not work.
I have done the following:
- downloaded and installed the plugin
- activated (enabled) the plugin
- added and activated the plugin in hikashop (hikashop/system/configuration/plugins)

Still, I get only one coupon instead of several which I acpected to see.

Additional information:
Looking in the browser debugger (firefox) I see that the plugin is not loaded.

New information about the plugin:
When manually selecting the coupon, it works fine.
But I expected that coupons were added automaticilly.
Am I right about this.

Kind regards,
Winfried

Hi,

The plugin only supports one auto loaded coupon at a time. Only normal coupons can be added by the customer without restriction.

If you need several auto loaded coupons at the same time, then I would recommend using instead the cart fees plugin:

Thanks for your help and patience!
