Ok

Solved it myself by adding scope=”future” to the Map shortcode

Does anyone have an answer to this issue ????

Just a thought, if there is currently no easy way to update this, would it be possible to add an import csv file to that part of it???

I finally figured it all out, there is no easy way to do it, but below is what you have to do. It is based on what I was supplied by Thai Post, countries are grouped and then a price is given for the appropriate weight, it looks like this.

I have ten country “Groups” and 20 prices for each group.

The first number is the weight in kilograms, the second is the price, (in my case US$) and the last number is the group it applies to. You will have to create this for every weight and country/state group.

1|15.50|1
2|18.60|1
3|21.60|1
4|24.70|1
5|27.80|1

It is a long winded time consuming process, but it is all that works.

Just been through the same dramas, I think, my first order cost me money on the shipping as I just didn’t have it set up right.

You live and learn or go broke I guess.

AWD Weight/Country Shipping is what you need from what you are saying.

It’s actually not that hard to setup once you know exactly what to do. It works by creating scales that will be applied by country and weight. I am based in Thailand and shipping literally worldwide, but the rates vary wildly.

What I found was that Thai Post, groups countries which then have the same rates, so what you need to do is create the equivalent groups to apply the shipping to. It will depend on how you are set up as to just what you need to create, I use Kilograms and charge by the Kilo or part there of.

My setup looks like this:

1|16.50|1 – the first number is the amount of kilo’s
2|19.50|1 – the 2nd number is the rate in $US for the amount of kilos
3|22.70|1 – the 3rd number is the country group it applies to
4|25.90|1 – you need to do this for each possible scenario, I went up to 20kg for each country group and I have 10 of them, so in total 200 possible freight charges.

I hope this is what you are looking for.

If you send me a pm with your email address I will send you a screenshot of my set up.

Hi,

I’ve been thinking about this a little while awaiting a reply, would it be simpler to add a per item discount option.

I have been reading a lot of the other posts on this plugin and I initially tried the flat discount of $0.25 but had the same problem as someone else, where it just took 25c off the total rather than each item.

A per item discount would solve my problem completely, as the discounts change each time by $0.25 increments, ie: 25c 50c 75c as the quantity changes.

I also read somewhere about adding some rounding where coeff shows up, but I am completely unsure what to do in that instance.

I have found the culprit, the plugin “TheThe Tabs and Accordions” was affecting it, had also been having few problems with images on the site not opening in a lightbox as they should, disabling the “TheThe Tabs and Accordions” plugin solved that problem as well.

Guys and Gals,

I have just had a thought, I have quite a few twenty eleven themed websites, the vast majority of them use the light theme option.

Would an easy way out of this be to copy a good part of the style.css from one of those sites, to my child theme and rename things like:
/* Singular */ to /* Singular Custom */

and

/* =Content
———————————————– */
to
/* =Content Custom
———————————————– */

Just a thought, also from what I have been reading since posting above, some changes will need to be made to functions.php is that correct ???

Kindest Regards

Daprela,

Just solved it myself it’s easier than you would think.

The call for the menu is not in the page template, it is in the header.

So the solution is to create a child header, I called it header-custom.php

then in the custom page template you call
get_header('custom'); ?>

In the header-custom.php file you code out the bit below using <!– and closing it with –>

<!--
			<nav id="access" role="navigation">
				<h3 class="assistive-text"><?php _e( 'Main menu', 'twentyeleven' ); ?></h3>
				<?php /* Allow screen readers / text browsers to skip the navigation menu and get right to the good stuff. */ ?>
				<div class="skip-link"><a class="assistive-text" href="#content" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Skip to primary content', 'twentyeleven' ); ?>"><?php _e( 'Skip to primary content', 'twentyeleven' ); ?></a></div>
				<div class="skip-link"><a class="assistive-text" href="#secondary" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Skip to secondary content', 'twentyeleven' ); ?>"><?php _e( 'Skip to secondary content', 'twentyeleven' ); ?></a></div>
				<?php /* Our navigation menu. If one isn't filled out, wp_nav_menu falls back to wp_page_menu. The menu assigned to the primary location is the one used. If one isn't assigned, the menu with the lowest ID is used. */ ?>
				<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?>
			</nav>  -->

I also removed the part below from the very end of the code above.
<!-- #access -->

It normally sits immediately after </nav>

It’s all good now and looks just as I wanted it, to have a look

I think I will close this thread and start a new one.

Thanks Daprela for your input.

Coding php like I said leaves me scratching by head, but I would have to think that in there somewhere, is a command that basically, just like it says get footer, must say get menu.

So if that is the case, surely it can be coded out in my custom sidebar page, at least that is my thoughts on it, just don’t know how to do it.

Thanks Again
Bam Bam

Daprela,

If I could find a plugin that would allow Twenty Eleven to support more than one menu and you could select which one to use at the page editing stage, that would be ideal, but I searched high and low and can’t find one.

The site wide horizontal menu directly under the header image.

The reason is I am offering very very cheap hosting for events, linked to the event listing on the main site, I want to make it look as much as I can as though it is a separate site, thus the 4 links in the sidebar.

Many Thanks
Bam Bam

Daprela,

Thanks for the prompt reply, yes I already have and for some strange reason it has suddenly decided to do what I have been trying to do, so now the only bit to change is to get rid of the menu out of the header.

Any idea how to achieve that.

Regards
Bam Bam

Tobias,

thanks I’ll give that a try
