I'm working with someone who currently has a pretty standard nopCommerce store, but they have requested a specific scenario for shipping costs. Essentially, a few products will have a shipping cost depending on their quantity. £5 for 1 - 4, £10 for 5 - 8 etc. The rest of the products have a unique shipping price per product.
It doesn't seem like the system has support for this natively for the unique pricing setup, nor does it support have a different pricing method for different products. Is there a plugin that can achieve this?
If not I'll try modifying the code. I figure I'd do something like this:
1) Create a plugin for the 1 - 4, 5 - 8 pricing and set that as the standard shipping method.
2) Change the 'additional shipping charge' option so it overrides the 'free shipping' option above it, and use that to price the rest of the products.
Does that sound feasible? I'm a developer so I have no problem with c# and MVC but I haven't touched the source code before so I'm unsure of where to begin.
