I don’t think so. Essentially, it is adding to WC an additional shipping costs calculation option for the entire site. Sounds like you need something way more flexible.

To summarize, this plugin is organized to calculate shipping by tiers rather than strictly by item quantity. This requests suggests development in the future a different plugin. This plugin will not meet your needs as I understand them.

Thanks for the question.

Thanks for confirming that WC is handling concurrency. Glad 2.0’s new features are useful for your site.

Hello Edwin,
Regarding currency, I’ll have to experiment. I’m assuming that WC takes care of that and I’ve made no provisions otherwise.

Your two-tier strategy should work; and you can disable the remaining tiers. This new 2.0 release will show you a shipping table at the bottom of the setting page that you can use to confirm that your saved settings create the shipping table you intend.

Version 2.0 has been released.

Maybe 2.0 will, but I need to better understand your goals. You state that 4 or more cost $17.00 for shipping. So I don’t see where your model triggers a $75 threshold. If you are thinking that the shipping costs reflect a “per item” cost, then your intended shipping cost model is different than what this plugin implements. The plugin model tiers shipping costs by the number of items ordered.

I’ll gladly open this up again if additional information is provided. Meanwhile, am marking this as resolved. Version 2.0 will be released shortly in any case.

One more FYI. 2.0 will also allow you to specify a “Free Shipping” label where applicable.

QA work on 2.0 has been completed and is ready for posting. I’m rusty at using CVS, so am spending a little time setting up a repos and getting familiar with CVS before attempting to submit the 2.- update.

If you are interested in beta testing 2.0, respond here and I’ll send you a copy.

That looks very doable. Besides [qty] I’d be inclined to investigate other potential dynamic variables to include in a 1.0 release. Also, would need to figure out how to determine whether I’m parsing for ‘.’ or ‘,’ according to the configuration settings. It would take some time to figure these things out. The rest of the implementation would be very straight forward. Thanks for the comments and food for thought.

FYI. Version 2.0 will support free shipping for Big Orders. That plus the ability to enable or disable Tiers 3 & 4 may provide the functionality that you are seeking. Version 2.0 is currently in QA.

Just checking. Any additional news? I’ll check back again in a little while and if there’s nothing, I’ll go ahead and close this as resolved for lack of additional info.
Thanks.

QA work is now in progress to ensure that 2.0 is as bug-free as 1.0 was when it was initially released.

I’ve concluded that a separate plugin should be written for this functionality. This plugin would make a good skeleton for that work. The reason is that the user-interface is by design very simple. Attempting to support both a formulaic structure and a simple tiered structure would not lend itself to keeping the user interface simple.

I’ll consider writing the separate plugin once this one is published. I’m done coding and wrapping up QA.

Marking as resolved. Please let me know if there are any more questions.
