Understanding Plug-in Concept
Using Blogger widgets to map out your shipping weight to your shipping price, this add on will find the weight in cart & extracts the price in user's selected option & update the cart totals automatically.It comes with various default values if, somehow store owners forgets to enter a weight for an item or even alert users if their cart items has reached a maximum weight, a default value has been assigned.
All of this settings can be customized accordingly using BlogrCart Blogger store template helper (Store Configuration) widget located at Blogger dashboard Layout & makes it easy for non techy users to update accordingly without knowing any coding.
Setup Shipping Select
Go toStore Configuration
widget > click edit
> add as follows:-- At New Site Name field add parameter
shipping_method
- At New Site URL field add value of
shippingCustom
- Click
Save
to save your parameter.
Click
Save
to update your configurations settings.Doing this alone will not show your shipping options at checkout page. This is because you have not yet entered your options at the
Shipping Options
widget.Setup Shipping Options
Setting up is made easy when you have understand the basics on the format pairing values that has been assigned with this add on plugin. But before that, findShipping Options
helper widget & click edit to enter your options.There will be 2 fields assigned for this widget for an option:-
- Text entered at New Site Name field will display as the text for option at checkout.
- Inside Link URL field is where you enter the weight to price format values for this option.
Weight to Price Format (at Shipping Option Values)
An example weight to price format for a shipping option will look like so:-500:6.00 , 1000:12.00 , 1500:18.00 , 2000:36.00, 2500:42.00 , 3000:58.00 , 3500:69.00 , 4000:80.00
By default the weight is using grams as weight unit. But users can change to a different weight metric & will be detailed out later in this page. Looking at the example, the weight to price format is like so:
- Highlighted yellow is a weight unit (decimal points not allowed)
- Highlight cyan is a price in (required 2 decimal points) when this weight unit is reached.
- A ":" is the separator between weight to price pairings
- A comma " , " is the separator between each weight to price pairs.
- No ending comma is required for the last value pairs.
Explanation for the above, if the cart items reached 500(weight unit) then the shipping price will be 6.00(currency unit). And so goes if the cart weight reached 3500(weight unit), then the shipping price 69.00(currency unit)
Highlighted in yellow is the unit that the plug-in will search for. This weight unit increment must be consistent throughout the weight value entered. From the example above the increment is in 500 (weight unit).
Weight increment & its consistencies for an option is very important. This consistent increment value must be updated at
shipping_weight_increment
parameter if changed. If not shipping is set to 0.Continue to add your options using the method above. Click
Save
& preview your checkout page.You can also use Shipping Option Tool to help you print out the format & to allow you to copy & paste your weight price values directly to your shipping options quickly. :) http://blogrcart-mukabuku-elite.blogspot.com/p/shipping-option-tool.html
Updating Weight Increments
If however your weight needs a different weight increments, for example 250:[some_price] , 500:[some_price], 750:[some_price] and so on, then you can update the shipping plug-in to use your new increment units.Go to
Store Configuration
> add parameter shipping_weight_increment
(in New Site Name field) > add value 250
(at New Site URL field) and click Save Link
& Save
your widget. This will override the add on to use a new incremental weight you have entered which is 250 (weight units).Important
if this weight increments is changed, then you are required to edit/update other saved options using the same weight increment values. Multiple weight increment for an option will set the shipping value to 0.Updating Weight Units
By default the weight is using units equivalent to grams. This is reflected at shipping_weight_metric parameter assigned. This would be the ideal basis to convert the shipping weight to lb (pounds) or kg (kilograms) & reflect at checkout page & cart views.Currently supported 3 units which are:-
- gram(default)
- pounds (lb)
- kilograms(kg).
Using Pounds(lb) as Weight Metric
To update cart, to use pounds (lb) & display at checkout. Go toStore Configuration
widget > click Edit
> add parameter shipping_weight_metric
(in New Site Name field) > add value lb
(at New Site URL field) > click Save Link
& Save
your widget. New weight metric of pounds pre-calculated & displayed at checkout page & view cart.Since that the weight is based on units (grams) the pounds weight values must be converted to use grams. For example:
1/4 lb = 113.398 gram => Enter 100 as weight value as it is the closest rounded weight
or
1 1/8 lb = 623.69 gram => Enter 600 as weight value as it is the closest.
Prices for weight
Add any price value with no particular value increment. For the price units, 2 decimals places is required.Using Kilograms(kg) as Weight Metric
Kilograms is very straight forward. The item weight values is divided to 1000 to display in kilograms since that the plug-in weight unit used is based on gram weight value.Updating Maximum Weight in Cart
By default, the shipping has a 5000 (weight unit) for a maximum weight the cart could reach before displaying the alerts to users & disables the checkout form button.Required to add a consistent max weight value pairing for ALL the shipping options saved,
Based on the example above, the maximum weight is 4000(weight unit). Which means all other options are required with a maximum weight value pairing of 4000(weight unit) too.
To update the cart for this setting, Go to
Store Configurations
widget > click edit > add parameter shipping_weight_max
(at New Site Name field) > add value 4000
(at Link URL field) > click Save Link
& Save
your widget.This will update the cart to not use 5000 (default max weight unit) but to use your updated values which is
4000
(weight unit) instead. If a
shipping_max_weight
value is not available in a shipping option, shipping will return 0.A Working Example
Here we are displaying 3 location shipping options based on a carrier provider in Malaysia. Below example we are providing 3 options for users to select during checkout:-- Delivery Within P. Malaysia
- Delivery P. Malaysia to Sarawak
- Delivery P. Malaysia to Sabah
To key in the option weight to price values for the above, below would be the working example:-
Option #1
New Site Name field:
Delivery Within P. MalaysiaOption #1
New Site URL field:
500:7.00 , 1000:9.00 , 1500:11.00 , 2000:16.00 , 2500:18.00 , 3000:20.00 , 3500:22.00 , 4000:24.00 , 4500:26.00 , 5000:28.00 , 5500:30.00 , 6000:32.00; 6500:34.00 , 7000:36.00 , 7500:38.00 , 8000:40.00 , 8500:42.00 , 9000:44.00 , 9500:46.00 , 10000:48.00
Option #2
New Site Name field:
Delivery P. Malaysia to SarawakOption #2
New Site URL field:
500:9.00 , 1000:10.00 , 1500:14.00 , 2000:26.00 , 2500:30.00 , 3000:34.00 , 3500:37.00 , 4000:41.00 , 4500:44.00 , 5000:48.00 , 5500:51.00 , 6000:55.00; 6500:58.00 , 7000:62.00 , 7500=65.00 , 8000:69.00 , 8500:72.00 , 9000:76.00 , 9500:79.00 , 10000:83.00
Option #3
New Site Name filed:
Delivery P. Malaysia to SabahOption #3
New Site URL field:
500:10.00 , 1000:11.00 , 1500:15.00 , 2000:31.00 , 2500:35.00 , 3000:39.00 , 3500:43.00 , 4000:47.00; 4500:51.00 , 5000:55.00 , 5500:59.00 , 6000:63.00 , 6500:67.00 , 7000:71.00 , 7500:75.00 , 8000:79.00 , 8500:83.00 , 9000:87.00 , 9500:91.00 , 10000:95.00
Good news, if you are a store owner in Malaysia & using Post Laju services as your currier service, you can just copy the values here to your shipping options ;) .
From the above example we would set:
Store Configuration
widget add parameter shipping_weight_increment
(at New Site Name field) & the value of 500
(at New Site URL field) - whereas 500
is the increments between the weight values (or easily explained the consistent differences of the entered value weight)And also..
Add parameter
shipping_weight_max
(at New Site Name field) & the value of 10000
(at New Site URL field) to set the maximum weight entered for all the options above.To enable the shipping options & display it at checkout, add parameter
shipping_options
(at New Site Name field) & the value of true
(at New Site URL field).Quick Notes
- If a shipping option is not formatted as per required, shipping rate will return NaN (Not A Number).
- If
shipping_method
not set toshippingCustom
, shipping select will not display. - If a weight is not found in an option, the shipping total will return 0.
You're all set!
