Hi,

I have lost several prospective customers because the shipping cost does not appear prior to the closing of a sale.

Does anybody know if there is a way for customers can view their shipping cost prior to the sale instead of waiting for the end of the sales transaction..

Is there a module I can plug in? :rolleyes:

Thanks , Corinne

Hi Corrine

The reason shipping prices do not show is because the user isn't logged in and cucbecart can't work out the shipping cost until it knows where the delivery address is. You can change the text that appears, instead of 'n/a' through the Languages section in your Admin Panel, to something like, 'Calculated at next step'. Which shipping module(s) do you use? Do you just ship to one country, or international as well?

There is also a good mod written by another commercial contributor that allows the site visitor to enter some address details in earlier in the checkout process so that shipping costs can be calculated. I have bought it from the author on behalf of several of my clients

It should be easy to find on CCF

If you use a shipping module that doesn't require countries ISO codes to be entered, there is a very simple solution I posted on the sister site. The link is here for those who would like to use it
