[RELEASED] Shipping Estimate Module

[Johnathan]

Current Version: v155.1 (release notes)

OpenCart Versions: 1.4.8 - 1.5.5.x

Demo Links: View the Front Demo and Admin Demo

To Purchase: Visit OpenCartX

This extension allows your customers to retrieve a shipping estimate from anywhere on your site. It pulls the same data as the checkout shipping data, directly from your active shipping extensions. The customer can also select their shipping method directly through the module.

• Upload and go — modifies no core files.
  
• Fully AJAX, meaning no page reloads.
  
• Works with all properly designed shipping modules.
  
• Includes a setting for single product estimates when the module appears on a product page. Customers can empty their cart, add the product, and apply a shipping method all in one click.
  
• Performs informative error reporting when products don't require shipping, or when locations are invalid.
  
• Choose whether to pre-fill the default location using the customer's default address when logged in and/or the shipping session data.
  
• Set the default location within the module settings.
  
• Hide country, zone, and/or post code fields you don't need to show.
  
• For 1.4.x, easily add the module to the cart page.

Also, I had someone ask me how to hide the Shipping Estimate in the sidebar when there are no items in the cart. If anyone else is interested in doing this, you can perform the following edit:

Code: Select all

IN:
/catalog/view/theme/default/template/module/shippingestimate.tpl

AFTER:
#module_shippingestimate {

ADD:
<?php if (!$this->cart->hasProducts()) { ?>display: none;<?php } ?>

If you're using AJAX for the cart module, you'll need to make these two edits as well:

Code: Select all

IN:
/catalog/controller/module/cart.php

AFTER:
$output .= '<div style="padding-top:5px;text-align:center;clear:both;"><a href="' . $view . '">' . $this->language->get('text_view') . '</a> | <a href="' . $checkout . '">' . $this->language->get('text_checkout') . '</a></div>';

ADD:
$output .= '<script type="text/javascript">$("#module_shippingestimate").slideDown();</script>';

AND AFTER:
$output .= '<div style="text-align: center;">' . $this->language->get('text_empty') . '</div>';

ADD:
$output .= '<script type="text/javascript">$("#module_shippingestimate").slideUp();</script>';
