I have only one shipping method - Table rate on which I calculate two different aspects.
Now I get these calculation processed only after I trigger estimate shipping form or co-shipping form. Is that possible to load the shipping fee automatically once the page loads? and show up the result on cart total box.
I just send the co-shipping-method-form details via ajax submission on page load. this helped me to calculate the shipping Fee automatically without the estimate shipping and update total things. code what I used to trigger the form is below hope this will help someone.. also if this method is not good to use please guide me on this.
<script type="text/javascript">
(function($){
$(document).ready(function() {
var currentRequest = null;
var url = "<?php echo $this->getUrl('checkout/cart/estimateUpdatePost') ?>"; // co-shipping-method-form action url.
var data = $("#co-shipping-method-form");
$("#process").show(); // shows loading
currentRequest =$.ajax({
type: "POST",
data: data.serialize(),
dataType: "html",
url: url,
beforeSend : function(){
if(currentRequest != null){
currentRequest.abort();
}
},
success: function(response){
//console.log(response);
// find element with class name .cart-totals
var result = $('.cart-totals', response)
//console.log(result);
// replace with original
$(".cart-totals-wrapper").html(result);
$("#process").hide("slow"); // hide loading
},
});
return false;
});
})(jQuery);
</script>
Inorder to add shipping charge automatically to cart page, use the magento extension https://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/auto-shipping-pro.html . Its really awesome and works like a charm. [enter link description here][1]
The shipping totals in the cart are shown as soon as the quote has a shipping address with country and a shipping method has been selected, because the calculation is based on the country and there might be different methods available.
You need to add a dummy address with the default country and automatically select the first available shipping address when on the cart page.
We have an open source extension on GitHub for this: https://github.com/integer-net/AutoShipping
It also solves quite some special cases, like shipping rates that depend on the items in the cart, free shipping rules etc. - too much to fit into this answer.
For that you have to work with observer and used checkout_cart_save_after event and paste this below code in the observer file that you created:
private $_shippingCode = 'flatrate_flatrate';
private $_country = 'GB';
public function addShipping($params = null) {
if (Mage::registry('checkout_addShipping')) {
Mage::unregister('checkout_addShipping');
return;
}
Mage::register('checkout_addShipping',true);
$cart = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/cart');
//zend_debug::dump($cart->getData());exit;
$quote = $cart->getQuote();
if ($quote->getCouponCode() != '') {
$c = Mage::getResourceModel('salesrule/rule_collection');
$c->getSelect()->where("code=?", $quote->getCouponCode());
foreach ($c->getItems() as $item) { $coupon = $item; }
if ($coupon->getSimpleFreeShipping() > 0) {
$quote->getShippingAddress()->setShippingMethod($this->_shippingCode)->save();
return true;
}
}
try {
//$method = $quote->getShippingAddress()->getShippingMethod();
//if ($method) return; // don't overwrite what's already there if we have one set already
if ($quote->getShippingAddress()->getCountryId() == '') {
$quote->getShippingAddress()->setCountryId($this->_country);
}
$quote->getShippingAddress()->setCollectShippingRates(true);
$quote->getShippingAddress()->collectShippingRates();
$rates = $quote->getShippingAddress()->getAllShippingRates();
$allowed_rates = array();
foreach ($rates as $rate) {
array_push($allowed_rates,$rate->getCode());
}
if (!in_array($this->_shippingCode,$allowed_rates) && count($allowed_rates) > 0) {
$shippingCode = $allowed_rates[0];
}
//zend_debug::dump(Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getGrandTotal());exit;
//if(Mage::helper('checkout')->getQuote()->getData('subtotal')<=49){
$totals = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/cart')->getQuote()->getTotals();
$finaltotal = $totals["subtotal"]->getValue();
// zend_debug::dump($sample);exit;
//zend_debug::dump($finaltotal);exit;
if($finaltotal<=49){
if (!empty($shippingCode)) {
$address = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getShippingAddress();
if ($address->getCountryId() == '') $address->setCountryId($this->_country);
if ($address->getCity() == '') $address->setCity('');
if ($address->getPostcode() == '') $address->setPostcode('');
if ($address->getRegionId() == '') $address->setRegionId('');
if ($address->getRegion() == '') $address->setRegion('');
$address->setShippingMethod($this->_shippingCode)->setCollectShippingRates(true);
Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->save();
} else {
$address = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getShippingAddress();
if ($address->getCountryId() == '') $address->setCountryId($this->_country);
if ($address->getCity() == '') $address->setCity('');
if ($address->getPostcode() == '') $address->setPostcode('');
if ($address->getRegionId() == '') $address->setRegionId('');
if ($address->getRegion() == '') $address->setRegion('');
$address->setShippingMethod($this->_shippingCode)->setCollectShippingRates(true);
Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->save();
}
}
else{
if (!empty($shippingCode)) {
$address = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getShippingAddress();
if ($address->getCountryId() == '') $address->setCountryId($this->_country);
if ($address->getCity() == '') $address->setCity('');
if ($address->getPostcode() == '') $address->setPostcode('');
if ($address->getRegionId() == '') $address->setRegionId('');
if ($address->getRegion() == '') $address->setRegion('');
$address->setShippingMethod('freeshipping_freeshipping')->setCollectShippingRates(true);
Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->save();
} else {
$address = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getShippingAddress();
if ($address->getCountryId() == '') $address->setCountryId($this->_country);
if ($address->getCity() == '') $address->setCity('');
if ($address->getPostcode() == '') $address->setPostcode('');
if ($address->getRegionId() == '') $address->setRegionId('');
if ($address->getRegion() == '') $address->setRegion('');
$address->setShippingMethod('freeshipping_freeshipping')->setCollectShippingRates(true);
Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->save();
}
}
Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->resetCheckout();
}
catch (Mage_Core_Exception $e) {
Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->addError($e->getMessage());
}
catch (Exception $e) {
Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->addException($e, Mage::helper('checkout')->__('Load customer quote error'));
}
}
It worked for me when checkout cart subtotal is less than 49.
If so it displays free shipping otherwise displays flat rate charge.
