shipping plugin

Hello,

One embedded solution would be to use the trigger "onBeforeHikaPluginConfigurationListing($type, &$filters, &$order, &$searchMap, &$extrafilters, &$view)"
You can then add an extra filter (in $filters) when you're in the frontend and the $type is "shipping", so you will exclude your plugin from the listing.
Otherwise you can use a view override but I would not recommend it to you since you have your own and custom plugin.

Hello,

I think it would be the best for your case if you want to hide your plugin from the HikaMarket front-end.
I suppose that you want your vendors to be able to create shipping methods. Because there is no built-in filters in HikaMarket regarding payment and shipping plugins (but it's in the todo list ; trying to find a good idea for the implementation and interfaces)

The idea is to add such kind of code :

$filters['exclude_XXX_plugin'] = 'plugin.shipping_type != ' . $db->Quote('XXX');

Hello,

Oh okay. I though that you had the possibility to edit your custom plugin.
So, the faster solution would be to use a view override for the "pluginmarket / listing" view.
replacing

foreach($this->plugins as $plugin) {

foreach($this->plugins as $plugin) {
  if($this->type == 'shipping' && isset($plugin->shipping_type) && $plugin->shipping_type == 'XXXX')
    continue;

Hello,

You entered the shipping name instead of the shipping type.
The shipping type cannot have spaces or special characters, it's the name of the folder in "plugins/hikashopshipping/"

Hello,

Logically, the folder name is also the name of the shipping type, but it is possible to put another value.
You can otherwise get the shipping type value in the plugin source code (in the few first line of the main file, the variable $shipping_type must be defined), it is also possible to have that information from the database (in the HikaShop shipping table)..
Unfortunately, like that it would be difficult for me to give you a precise answer for your specific case and plugin.

Hello,

After looking at your plugin, I realize that the patch I gave you was for the wrong view.
You can of course keep the patch in the "listing" view so you will hide that plugin from the listing BUT you're want to hide it from the plugin creation !
So you need to override the "pluginmarket / add" view and use that code :

  if($this->plugin_type == 'shipping' && isset($row->element) && $row->element == 'XXXX')
    continue;

foreach($this->plugins as $i => &$row) {

Hello,

You need to configure the plugin in the backend if you don't want the shipping instance to be available for other vendors.
Just need to assign the instance to your main vendor.

Hello,

I'm sorry but I don't understand your request.
Please clarify

Regards,

Hello,

You have configured your shipping instance to be available just for the vendor "Rico Plate" who have the ID 6.
Your main vendor have the ID "1" and if you set the shipping instance to that vendor, the method won't be used when other vendor products are in the cart.

Because you associated the shipping instance with the vendor, you see that name in the front-end while you're connected with your admin.
Afterwards, the second screenshot is too tiny to be read.

Hello,

After a look at your custom shipping plugin ; the way that is generate its "sub methods" is not the right one.
Official HikaShop shipping plugins which web-services to generate multiple shipping entries are using a define algorithm which consist of copying the "current entry" so it will keep the settings of the shipping method.
Your custom plugin is copying the first available method in the shipping list ; which in your case is your manual shipping method.
So the configuration you set-up for your shipping method is not kept for the duplicated one and it generates unwanted side effect such as the lost of the vendor assignation.
