WebBoss.io Update: Multiple Shipping Options [Blogging]

One of the most recently requested features for our eCommerce module was that of multiple and more flexible shipping options. We are pleased to announce that as of version 3.6.6 of the WebBoss system, you can now create multiple and flexible shipping options to cater for all your needs! How does it work? The basic idea of the new shipping options is that you can create multiple different shipping options, all with different configurations, including restrictions. When the user goes through the checkout process, the website will check all the available shipping options you have configured (based off of the shipping address, cart products etc.) and show buttons in the checkout to select which option to use, or if only one is available it will select that one automatically.

If you have a shipping option with the type set to “collection”, then the checkout process will allow to you choose between delivery and collection. When the user chooses collection, instead of entering a shipping address, they will choose a collection location, which can also be displayed on a map. To configure your shipping options in your website admin, from the sidebar navigation, go to Modules eCommerce Shop Settings Postage Settings. The “Default” tab holds some general postage settings, and the basic settings to use if you’re not yet ready to use the new shipping options. The main tab to use here is the “Postage Types” tab. Here you can create new options and click the “Configure” button to change the settings like the restrictions and free conditions. If you’re using the collection option, you will need to create locations for customers to collect from, which can be done under the “Locations” tab. The last
