Redundant Shipping Option DropDown

Hi
In the store's shopping cart layout there is the shipping option dropdown that shows all the options available to the user.
This dropdown has the words CHOOSE SHIPPING OPTION as the default listing, but then right above it, it says CHOOSE SHIPPING OPTION, leaving us with an unwanted redundancy.
Any way to remove it? Also, I would like to have it say CHOOSE DELIVERY REGION instead.
Possible?

Hi,
Think you are looking for some JS to help customize this a bit.

  • Customizing the shipping options in the cart?

    Hey Everybody,
    I've got a client that just ABSOLUTELY does not like the way that the "integrated" shipping options are displayed. Currently if you have USPS and FEDEX both as shipping options. A user would have select one of the two from a dropdown, then enter the zip code and then select an option from a radio button. If  the user does not like those shipping options then they have to go back to the drop down - select the other option, then re-enter their zip code and look at the other shipping options.
    What I am wondering is - is it possible for a user to NOT select the shipping type from the drop down, but simply enter their zip code and see ALL the shipping options that are available in radio list form? Is it possible to ping both the USPS and FEDEX api to calculate shipping cost at the same time?
    I so hope that someone has done this. or has some kind of a work around. I am currently stumped on this one. We have revised the cart about 11 times now, and still my client is not happy with the way that business catalyst is set up to function in the shipping options area.

    @Case and Carl Design: Sure thing, here are two sites I did, one with a suburb to shipping cost calculator and one with a post / ZIP code lookup to shipping cost calculator.

  • Custom shipping options?

    Alright - I got a question I can't seem to find an answer to.
    I've got an item. this item measures
    W - 3.5
    H - 5.75
    D - 1.5
    Then I've defined some custom shipping options.
    These are the USPS boxes - where an items weight doesn't matter. Only the size of the items.
    8.625 x 5.375 x 1.625 SMALL BOX
    1 x 8.5 x 5.5 MEDIUM BOX
    12 x 12 x 5.5 LARGE BOX
    The idea here is to fit the items into the box - the whole " if it fits it ships " idea.
    If you add two of these items into the shopping cart, it basically just doubles the dimensions of ALL the measurements of the items... Which will exceed at least one of W H D - so it returns no shipping options. It should just go up to the next size box, or at least return it as an option. It seems that this is seriously broken in a very big way. You could fit two of these items into a medium sized box - easy. but the system seems to kick it back since the height is larger than the height of the boxes... but only when you add them in together. the volume works.
    The client does not care for how the shipping API's work - so this was my solution - if it fits it ships. Am I missing something seriously major here or is shipping in general just a HUGE flaw in the business catalyst system?

    Hi Garuda,
    The image thing would have to be implemented with some JS. You'd listen to the dropdown change and then render the image according to the shipping selection. I unfortunately don't have the code for you that will do this.
    As for the free shipping option, you'd need to use a user defined option of $0 rather than the Free Shipping option and then set your weights so that both options are displayed at the same time when 2 or more items are added.

  • Custom image for shipping options

    Hey I was wondering if its possible to display a custom image for each shipping option. So for example if you select regular postage, an image of regular postage would be displayed. If you select express postage, same thing. Is this possible with Business Catalyst?
    One other thing. Is it possible to have free shipping option for 2 or more of a product, but also have express option if they want it?
    Cheers,
    Garuda

  • Shipping options

    Hello,  In the shipping options there is an option to exclude certain catagories/catalog e.g. If I have two catalogs A&B I want shipping charges to be different if customer purchase product from catalog B. It seems to be working fine until you only  add products from catalog B but as soon as you add one product from catalog A, on the shipping cart, shipping options disappear.  I can understand why this might be happening but is there any work around?  Please help. Thanks, SM

    I too have a similar issue. I believe the problem is because this works in reverse.
    If you have a product that exists in both A and B and you exclude A then even though the product is in B and B wasn't excluded, the product was already excluded as it was in A.
    It would be much simpler if the logic was the other way around where you could say;
    Apply shipping to a catalog as opposed to exclude. If this was the case any product wich existed in catalog B would be eligible for those rules.
    To make this even better, if the associated catalogs appeared on the product under a shipping tab, you could have the ability at product level to exclude the product from selected catalogs shipping rules.
    As it stands, it's impossible to mix shipping rules. Very frustrating.

  • Shipping Options, Limit Delivery to Following Countries - heads up

    Currently there is an issue in the shipping options if there are multiple methods specified in shipping options.
    A case is current and is now with dev team, basically is as follows with work around until fixed.There seems to be a issue with shipping options:
    When a shipping option is selected, the "Limit Delivery to Following Countries" list should reload to reflect the countries selected. Now it works only for the first selection
    I have duplicated it internally, confirmed it and reported it to our development team. The ticket number is #2751493, for your reference.
    The workaround is to always re-start the process by going to Ecommerce->Shipping, instead of clicking on several shipping options to change them one by one. So, go to Ecommerce->Shipping options, select the one you want and make the changes. If you need to make change to another one, go back to Ecommerce->Shipping and then select it.
    Date 9 May 2012 FYI, hope this prevents others having issues with shipping

  • Shipping Options Lock iPad web browser

    I am not sure how many of you have noticed it but when you have shipping options in your Shopping cart, after you slect one, you receive a confirmation box where you have to click on OK. Whan this box appears on iPad (I tested on iPad3 with the latest OS) you can never get past it. You actually have to restert the iPad. I tried every other possible angele and it didn't work. I am not sure if my exact settings are causing it to act this way or not. I have Free shipping in US only as the only shipping option. You can see this and test it on your iPad at http://boyzonemagazine.businesscatalyst.com
    A solution to this is to use the script that Mario posted for automatic selection of the Shipping options. For some reason, when triggered by this script, the dialoque box does not get stuck. Just add this to the end of the Shoppinc Cart page:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var shippingOptions = document.getElementById('ShippingOptions');
    if (shippingOptions) {
       shippingOptions.selectedIndex = 1;
       shippingOptions.onchange();
    </script>

    Look at your code, it's a loop:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var shippingOptions = document.getElementById('ShippingOptions');
    if (shippingOptions) {
       shippingOptions.selectedIndex = 1;
       shippingOptions.onchange();
    </script>
    Although most browsers I've come across wont fire the onchange event unless you manually change the selection, I can't say what IOS would do, but it seems it fires the onchange event on any change. Remove the shippingOptions.onchange(); from your code and see if still hangs, if it doesn't you know the issue and you just have to refactor your code.

  • Shipping Options Issue

    We are having an issue with the shipping options on 6 of our online shop items.  They are all of our Journey Packs, and all require multiple choices when making the purchase, so I’m not sure if that is contributing to the issue.  These are the items #’s as they are listed in Business Catalyst are:
    Journey Pack Ambasadors Kit
    JRNYPCKAMB
    Journey Pack Brownies Kit
    JRNYPCKBR
    Journey Pack Cadettes Kit
    JRNYPCKCAD
    Journey Pack Daisies Kit
    JRNYPKDSY
    Journey Pack Juniors Kit
    JRNYPCKJR
    Journey Pack Seniors Kit
    JRNYPCKSR
    The issue is that when the customer is ready to check out, they are only given the option to pick up in one of our shops, not to have their order delivered.  We’ve never had this issue with any of our other online items.
    Here's the address for our online shop is http://www.girlscoutsgcnwi.org/shop. Look on the lower left side of the page and click "Journey Packs and Combos".

    Hi,
    This looks like it is due to the product item's base price is $0 which only triggers shipping options that has min of $0.  I see that you have min/max values for shipment. 
    The only workaround I can see if to set some sort of base price to trigger special shipping for these type of products that have base pricing of $0.
    Kind regards,

  • How to set wholesale shipping options

    Is there a way to set different shipping options just for wholesalers? I don't want my retail shipping options to be the same as my wholesale shipping options. I'm not finding a way to add a different shipping options just for wholesalers to see. Thanks for any help that can be given to me.

    Hi,
    Go to the shipping option section and locate "show shipping option to" as you can choose wholesaler to make the shipping option specific as required.
    "Show Shipping Option To - This option will allow you to display this shipping option to all customers, wholesalers or non-wholesalers"

  • Auto Select Available Shipping Options

    After a user enters a zip code they must choose an Available Shipping Options. In my case I am only offering one shipping option and would prefer this to be auto-selected for them to ease the process. I have attempted the following code but it did not work:
         var $radios = $('input:radio');
         $('#shippingPostcode').change(function() {
             $radios.trigger('click');
    How would I auto-select the only option available?
    Thanks!

    Yes drop me a line, I've re-written nearly of this Javascript to auto select based on 1 input. Not done it for Fedex but have done it for the Australia post but the code and UI interface is the same.

  • Best method for Shipping Options in Ecommerce - HELP?

    Hello, we are running a eshop that has numerous catalogues (product groups) and due to the nature of the products, some include shipping and others are charged at certain rates.  For example:
    CATALOG 1
    Product 1 - £10.00 - No shipping/delivery costs
    Product 2 - £15.00 - No shipping/delivery costs
    CATALOG 2
    Product 4 - £5.00 - £19 per item
    Product 5 - £10.00 - £19 per item
    CATALOG 3
    Product 6 - £20.00 - £19 per item
    Product 7 - £25.00 - No shipping/delivery costs
    Product 8 - £20.00 - £13.60 per item
    If I order product 1 (no shipping), 2 x product 5 (£19 twice for shipping) and Product 8 (£13.60 shipping).
    Is there a way of achieving the correct shipping amount??
    I have spoken to chat support, who are as useful as a chocolate tea pot.   Adobe really, really (please) need to sort a better shipping options method - really letting the product down.
    Any 'work around' solutions or reccomendations would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Sorry I don't have an answer, but I love the 'chocolate teapot' analogy.

  • Adding home country postal services in the shipping options of BC

    Hi, How can you or is it possible to add your home country postal services to the shipping options when setting up your cart... I live in the Rep. of Ireland.

    Your best bet would probably to set a price for those products as $0.00 or 0 in whatever currency your site uses.  Then, on your checkout page you can use some jQuery/javascript to sense if there are any products in the cart that have $0.00 and you can then hide the checkout button and show the get quote button which will force the user to get a quote instead.  Then, you client will receive a notification of a quote that's been generated and they can update it to include the custom shipping cost manually in the BC Admin and resend it as an invoice for that customer.

  • Shipping option not showing in shopping cart

    For some reason, on my shopping cart, the shipping options are not showing.
    Site: Home Page
    Products with all elements entered: Candy Apples, Caramel Apples, Monster Apples
    I have added 2 FedEx options, all with the correct information from FedEx entered
    I have added all dimensions to the "Apples" in the products
    If you try and "Check Out", it goes straight to acting like the user is buying a "Gift Voucher"
    I really need help as this is the last true item I need fixed before finishing the site.

    Hi
    Try this.
    Go to Site Manager > Module Templates ->Online Shop Layouts -> Shopping Cart
    Locate the {tag_shippingoptions}
    Change like this {tag_shippingoptions,true}, save.
    Refresh the shopping cart now, you should see the option to select shipping
    To see more option, Refer to this article Business Catalyst Help | Add shipping options to your online store
    Do let me know if you have any question.

  • FedEx - auto-select and hide available shipping options

    I'm looking to change some of the default shopping cart UI/UX functionality, and I'm assuming this can be done with jQuery - but I figured I'd check here first to make sure as this is a live site and I'd rather not play around too much.
    This particular store uses FedEx for shipping, and our feedback so far has been that the fact that a final shipping option turns up at the end is an issue for customers - they usually miss it, and it's just clunky and cumbersome overall.
    So I'm hoping that I can somehow have it automatically selected with jQuery and hidden, to show the final shipping amount only. Something like the right-hand side below:
    This would then alleviate the need for a pop-up and the extra step checking out.
    Has anyone completed this successfully? Is it possible? Would using (.shippingCalc input) as a selector work?
    Furthermore - separately - has anyone enabled a zip lookup so that state can be pre-selected for tax calculations?
    Thanks.
