Thanks in advance Dando")* In your shipping methods options, the first option on the right of the screen is called "zone". that's where you can set your zone for that shipping method so that the shipping is only available to that zone: [ www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentatio...form.html#additional](http://www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentation/integrated-documentation/31-hikashop-shipping-manual-form.html#additional) Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzE1NzI2LXNoaXBwaW5nLW1ldGhvZC1hbmQtc2hpcHBpbmctY29zdD90bXBsPW1hcmtkb3du) or [Create an account](/register) to join the conversation. - **[rshenje](/forum/user/4439-rshenje "View rshenje's Profile")** - [![rshenje's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/4439-rshenje "View rshenje's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/4439-rshenje) Less More - Posts: 21 - Thank you received: 0 - - 14 years 10 months ago [\#32333](#32333) by [rshenje](/forum/user/4439-rshenje "View rshenje's Profile") Replied by *[rshenje](/forum/user/4439-rshenje "View rshenje's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Shipping method and shipping cost](/forum/4-how-to/15726-shipping-method-and-shipping-cost#32333 "Hi everyone I ask you just a really simple thing.

What would go wrong if I export from phpmyadmin to csv. Copy and alter in excel and create a CSV with all methods. Then I can import through phpmyadin. Is this out of the question and why?

You can also use the "copy" button to duplicate all your shipping methods and then just change their options Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzE1NzI2LXNoaXBwaW5nLW1ldGhvZC1hbmQtc2hpcHBpbmctY29zdD90bXBsPW1hcmtkb3du) or [Create an account](/register) to join the conversation. - **[rshenje](/forum/user/4439-rshenje "View rshenje's Profile")** - [![rshenje's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/4439-rshenje "View rshenje's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/4439-rshenje) Less More - Posts: 21 - Thank you received: 0 - - 14 years 10 months ago [\#32388](#32388) by [rshenje](/forum/user/4439-rshenje "View rshenje's Profile") Replied by *[rshenje](/forum/user/4439-rshenje "View rshenje's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Shipping method and shipping cost](/forum/4-how-to/15726-shipping-method-and-shipping-cost#32388 "Hi everyone I ask you just a really simple thing.

There is one column, "shipping_params" which I may screw up by working in excel. Wonder if you can explain important variables in this "shipping_params" field especially the ones I cant omit. The string in this filed is of the sort,"O:8:"stdClass":14:{s:19:"shipping_percentage";s:1:"0";s:18:"shipping_min_price";s:0:"";s:18:"shipping_max_price";s:0:"";s:25:"shipping_virtual_included";s:1:"0";s:19:"shipping_min_weight";s:4:"3000";s:19:"shipping_max_weight";s:4:"3499";s:20:"shipping_weight_unit";s:1:"g";s:19:"shipping_zip_prefix";s:0:"";s:16:"shipping_min_zip";s:0:"";s:16:"shipping_max_zip";s:0:"";s:19:"shipping_zip_suffix";s:0:"";s:19:"shipping_min_volume";s:0:"";s:19:"shipping_max_volume";s:0:"";s:18:"shipping_size_unit";s:1:"m";}". It includes many variables which are self-explanatory including important ones like minimum and maximum weights. Which variable relates to shipping zone and where do I fish the values? Besides these three, min, max weight and shipping zone, is there any other important ones in this field/string?

For the shipping zone, the value used is the zone_namekey in the jos_hikashop_zone table of the database. If you omit the other values in that field, you might get notice messages if you have your php error reporting activated (that should not be the case on a live website). Also, be careful of the numbers in there. "O:8:"stdClass":14: means that the class name has 8 letters and that there are 14 attributes in the object. s:25:"shipping_virtual_included";s:1:"0" means that the attribute name has 25 letters and that the value has one letter which is 0.
