We are happy to announce a VirtueMart 2.0 Postcode - ZIP code Shipping Plugin that fully integrates and allows a complete Postcode - ZIP code area solution with only one setup. This is a VirtueMart 2.0 Shipping Module/Plugin that allows a very simple configuration of all a countries Postcode - ZIP code areas in one method. You no longer need multiple shipping methods for every Postcode - ZIP code area PLUS it works perfectly with Alpha/Numeric codes as in the UK and Canada. Has been tested on:
Will work on any known country Postcode - ZIP Code system.
Configuration is very simple - basically a comma separated list pasted in the text area to configure the method. The format is: Name,Postcode*Postcode*Postcode,BasePrice,PriceMultiplier,PriceTrigger,PriceFree Each zone is on a new line.  Paste in a comma separated list of parameters each on a new line. Each Postcode Area in each Zone should be separated by an asterisk. The Postcode is checked in 4 steps to 4 digits so entries such as Y1A1 are valid.
Install the Joomla 2.5 Plugin by using the standard Joomla installer for the file vm2.0.postcode.shipping.zip. The next step is to enable the VM Postcode shipping plugin in the Joomla 2.5 Extensions->Plug-in manager. Then go to Virtuemart-->Shop->Shipment Methods and click 'New'.
