Show when free shipping is available accordin to cart total

Hi all. I am trying to show this



I want to show the customer that if they spend another $x they will get free shipping. I have looked for a module but cant find one anywhere!

I also tried to code this in to the cart.php but I cant see how to get the original price without currency conversion.

If anyone can tell me the variable that is the original total amount before the currency conversion in the cart.php file I can code the php my self or if someone can point me a module that would be much better !

Hey,

Use the function:
$this->cart->getSubTotal();

and to get the base cost for the free shipping, use
$this->config->get('free_total');

excellent thanks ill try it today and let you know how i get on!

I use this, and its excellent, you can change the text used in the language file

It really isn't that hard to find, I just went to the Extensions section and typed free shipping and this was on page two.....

are you able to show it as a module in the left/right menus ?

Hey barry,

The easiest way to check is by installing it and testing it out. Or leave a comment under the extensions comments section.

Joel.
