CG Ecommerce Base - Shipping Setting tab has gone

[WWc]

I'm installing the CG Ecommerce suite and everything has been going well until applying a Shipping Module and ..... Where is the shipping settings tab?

I don't have an area to select my preferred shipping module so no shipping costs are being applied to the order.

Checked back on a past site (earlier this year) I have done and the tab is definitely supposed to be up there in the Calguys Ecommerce Base module (not the Orders Module as the PriceBasedShipping module states).

Does anybody have any ideas about this please?

Thanks in advance

So it appears that most of the Shipping Modules don't work with the latest version of Calguy's E-commerce Base.

HOWEVER

The new CG Flat Rate Shipping module is very good indeed and can be used for most shipping requirements.

I've been able to apply a set shipping rate of $xx.xx and offer FREE shipping over $100.00.

What I would like to do is offer the purchaser the choice of EXPRESS POSTAGE at a cost of $xx.xx + $1.50.

I can't use the Product Options because I'm already using Product Options for sizing. And besides, I only want to apply the additional cost to the entire order - not individual items.

Is there a cunning way to do this?

This is working for me.

Using the extra data fields in the Orders Billing Form Template - the user can elect Express Post

Then

In the new CG Flat Rate Shipping module I've set up the expression:

{if ($order->orders_extra_fld1 ne '')}
9.50
{else}
{$value < 100.00}
{/if}

and added '8.00' to the min and max price.

So, if the shopper wants express post they will be charged $9.50 otherwise they will be charged $8.00 but receive FREE shipping if the order is over $100.

There is, no doubt, a more 'technically correct' method so please feel free to set me straight. In the meanwhile the client is happy.

The the new CG Flat Rate Shipping module is fabulous. Thanks very much Calguy.
