showing free delivery

[pixelhaus]

I'd like to be able to show £0.00 under shipping in the shopping cart. If the delivery is free then it simply doesn't show it, but i think it would be preferable to show free delivery. Is this poss ?

Look for the conditional statement that stops it from showing. If you can find it, you can remove it, so that shipping is always shown.

[pixelhaus]

That's the problem: I can't see any conditional statement in design view. I assume it is buried in one on the perl scripts.

Found it!!!

I tried removing <ACTINIC: REMOVE TAG="ShippingRow"> but it didn't like that. Does anyone know if there is another way ?

Richard,

Is delivery always free? Or is it only free over £x.xx amount?

[pixelhaus]

It's free over £x.xx. Actinic seems to comment it out if the figure is £0. Just need to override that somehow.

[dave_finlayson]

I think that will be a Perl change then, can't think of any way to do it without as all the cart values are generated online and therefore conditional statements won't work (feel free to correct me there Bill if I am speaking out my rear end)

[wjcampbe]

It shows when there is a value and does not show when there is no value - the condition *must* be is greater than 0

I removed the <ACTINIC: REMOVE TAG="ShippingRow"> from line 1 of the layout and also the closing tag </ACTINIC: REMOVE> from the last line - did you leave that one in place?

[pixelhaus]

I removed both the 'Actinic Remove tags' but this resulted in NETQUOTEVAR appearing in the shipping amount box if the value was £0. When the shipping value was higher than £0 it displayed correctly.

Hi,

Try the following:

- undo any changes that you have already made
- browse to 'c:\program files\actinic v8\sites\<site name>\OrderScript.pl' and take a backup of the file
- open the file in a text editor such as notepad and search for:

sub DisplayShipChargePhase

- within this sub routine, comment out the following code by putting a '#' at the beginning of each line:

if (ActinicOrder::IsPhaseComplete($::SHIPCHARGEPHASE) || # the shipping is 
                                                already completed or          -
  
 ActinicOrder::IsPhaseHidden($::SHIPCHARGEPHASE)) # is hidden 
        {
        push (@::s_DeleteDelimiters, 'SHIPANDHANDLEPHASE'); # hide the 
                                                shipping stuff
        return ($::SUCCESS, '', \%::s_VariableTable, 
\@::s_DeleteDelimiters, \@::s_KeepDelimiters);
                }
        else

- close and save the file and update your site.

trying to do this but cant find the code in my orderscript.pl file

theres lines similar to these but instead of

- ($::SHIPCHARGEPHASE)

i'm finding

($::BILLCONTACTPHASE) ;
($::SHIPCONTACTPHASE) or
($::PAYMENTPHASE)

do i use one of these???

Hi,

Sorry, it was in OrderScript.pl in v7, in v8 it is in ActinicOrder.pm.

[DavidPrintkit]

just checked and still doesnt seem to be working.
when shipping is free its still deleting the entire row.

this is what the code now reads:

	#
	# if the phase is done, don't display it
	#
	#if (ActinicOrder::IsPhaseComplete($::SHIPCHARGEPHASE)	||	# the shipping is already completed or
	#	ActinicOrder::IsPhaseHidden($::SHIPCHARGEPHASE))	# is hidden
	#	{
	#	push (@::s_DeleteDelimiters, 'SHIPANDHANDLEPHASE'); # hide the shipping stuff
	#	return ($::SUCCESS, '', \%::s_VariableTable, \@::s_DeleteDelimiters, \@::s_KeepDelimiters);
	#	}
	#else
		{
		push (@::s_KeepDelimiters, 'SHIPANDHANDLEPHASE');
		}

any ideas???

Did you get any resolution on this issue? I'm having the same problem myself in V9.

I've tried the steps above but to no avail. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for any help.
