New restriction fields for manual shipping plug-in

253/5000
Have you planned new restriction fields (height, width, length) in addition to volume and weight in the next version of Hikashop for the manual delivery plug-in?
It would be very useful for letter mailings which is limited to 3 cm.

Hi,

We didn't.
The issue is that the dimensions of the products are rearranged automatically to be able to properly stack the products together in a package. So a restriction field on one dimension might actually affect another dimension than what you expect due to the rearranging that is done during the package creation process.

Now, you could actually do what you want with the volume restrict: Set your products width and length to 1 and the height to what you want and thus the volume calculated will actually be the sum of the heights of the products. So you can then use the min/max volume settings in your manual shipping methods.

Hi,

Problem data:
- I use 3 different shipping methods: on site, by post and delivery.
- I have frozen products that cannot be sent by mail.

I could use a radio button to exclude the sending by post of certain products....
Is it possible to use a "Custom field" as a restriction for the "Manual shipping plug-ins"?

Hi,

No. However, you can activate the "shipping price per product" setting of your shipping methods and then, in each product, you'll have a "shipping prices" area where you'll be able to use the "block" checkbox of the shipping methods to disable shipping methods when that product is in the cart.
