This is a pretty tiny bug, but it took me a while to find it, so I thought I'd share in case anyone else ran into this.

When you make a coupon for your site, you have the option of it including free shipping. However, during the checkout process, if the order total is less than what is normally required to qualify for free shipping, "free shipping" is not presented as an option under "shipping method". In the end (the "confirm" part), the customer does see that yes, they have been given free shipping, but it's a little confusing, and it turns out it's an easy fix.

in catalog->model->shipping->free.php, at line 16 it says:

Code: Select all

if ($this->cart->getSubTotal() < $this->config->get('free_total')) {
			$status = false;
		}

change the if statement to:

Code: Select all

if (($this->cart->getSubTotal() < $this->config->get('free_total')) && !(isset($this->session->data['coupon']) && $this->session->data['coupon']['shipping']))

Here is the vqmod operation I used:

Code: Select all

<file name="catalog/model/shipping/free.php">
        <operation>
    		<search position="replace"><![CDATA[$this->cart->getSubTotal() < $this->config->get('free_total')]]></search>
    		<add><![CDATA[($this->cart->getSubTotal() < $this->config->get('free_total')) && !(isset($this->session->data['coupon']) && $this->session->data['coupon']['shipping'])]]></add>
		</operation>    		
    </file>

Hallo

Great with small bug - but one quick question where and how do you place the vqmod code ?
because I have the exact problem with free shipping and coupon

This change doesn't seem to work properly.

I followed the instructions and edited: catalog->model->shipping->free.php appropriately

and now for any item it gives the option of free shipping before i even use a voucher code for free shipping, or even if it is bellow the limit i have set for free shipping eligibility.

Anyone else any clue?!

tested on 1.5.6.1 and got some problems.
This is the fixed version:

]]></add>
</operation>
</file>

<file name="catalog/controller/checkout/cart.php">

Hey guys,

I'm a bit new so I apologize in advance. I tried the fixed version posed by Renato56 but when I go to check out I'm getting an error message citing an unexpected variable in the free.php file.

This is what mine looks like now after making the changes..

$this->cart->getSubTotal() < $this->config->get('free_total') && !(isset($this->session->data['coupon']) &&
$this->session->data['coupon_shipping'])
$status = false;

Did I make a mistake?

Thanks, worked on 1.5.6.

***DO NOT edit the free.php file directly, just upload the vqmod xml file and that should do it.

Code: Select all

          <add><![CDATA[($this->cart->getSubTotal() < $this->config->get('free_total')) && !(isset($this->session->data['coupon']) && $this->session->data['coupon']['shipping'])]]></add>
      </operation>          
    </file>
