I have created several combination packs of items in which the customer chooses a specific combination pack; say book1 and book2 are paired together and placed in the cart. I created a discount coupon code that automatically gives the customer a discount for the combination pack.
I would also like to give the customer free shipping for anything that is in the category called "Combination Packs". While the discount originally set up for the combination pack works, the discount to take off the shipping amount based on a group discount coupon does not apply. Here is what I have:
Promotions>Discounts> Name:RC220COMBODISC Assigned to Order Subtotal Discount amount $20.00 Start Date: None End Date: None No Coupon Code Requirements: 3560 (The record indicator pointing to the combination pack) The above works and takes $20.00 off the sub-total in the cart.
Next is the discount I set up for the free shipping: Promotions>Discounts Name: COMBOPACKFREESHIP Assigned to Categories Name: Combination Packs Discount amount: $7.95 Start Date: None End Date: None No Coupon Code No requirements This coupon does not apply
Any idea how to take the shipping off? I cannot order free shipping on the specific product because if a customer purchases book1 or book2 by itself, shipping charges would apply.
I tried that and it does not work. I also tried clicking the free shipping button. All I got was a screen display showing free shipping, but it did not take the shipping cost out of the order. I also tried unclicking shipping enabled.
Here is the list of steps I've done so far: Created a combination pack using two existing items Created a discount code to take $30 off the Price. The coupon code is set up as follows: [url]ftp://ftp.gagece.com/combo1.JPG[/url]AND [url]ftp://ftp.gagece.com/combo2.JPG[/url] Then I wanted to add a free shipping coupon so I tried this: Name: combopackfreeship The type of discount.Discount type: Discount amount: 7.9500 No dates No coupon code This applied the discount to shipping sitewide so this is not what what I wanted.
Next I tried to click the free shipping item in the combopack setup. That did not work (nothing happened.) Next I tried to unclick the shipping enabled item in the combopack setup. That did not work (Nothing happened).
Next I tried to apply free shipping to all items in by product category called combo packs: Name: combopackfreeship Assigned to categories: Combination Packs Discount amount: 7.9500 no dates no coupon code no requirements This does not work (nothing is applied)
I also tried deleting the coupon code and recreated all options above, none of them worked.
Forget all previous works. Follow the steps below.
1. Install a discount requirement rule plugin which will validate cart amount of specific category products. For example this** one.
2. Create discount with Discount type Assigned to shipping
3. After creating, you can edit requirement rules, where an option named as newly installed plugin [step 1] will be appeared in discount rules select list. Select that option and follow steps of that discount requirement rule plugin.
** this is available on marketplace which is contributed by third party contributor. I'm not responible for any kind of issues created by the plugin.
