This is a VirtueMart 4 Shipping Module/Plugin that allows a very simple configuration of all a countries Postcode - ZIP code areas in one method.

Remember - updates for current major VM or Joomla releases free for 12 months!!!


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:
  • USA ZIP Codes
  • UK Postcodes
  • Canadian Postcodes
  • French Postcodes
  • German Postcodes (PLZ)
  • Australian Postcodes
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.

vm2.0 postcode shipping configuration
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.

  • BasePrice: Fixed fee - can be used in conjunction with the 'Up To Weight' condition setting an upper limit
  • PriceMultipier: can be a percentage or sum that is multiplied by the Sale price or Weight
  • Trigger: If set and the 'Trigger' is set to 'Trigger by Price' and the Sale Price is above this figure then the PriceMultipier will be triggered.
    If the 'Trigger' is set to 'Trigger by Weight' and the weight is above this value then the PriceMultipier will be triggered.
  • PriceFree: If the Sale price is above this figure Shipping will be free


Install the Joomla 3 or 4 Plugin by using the standard Joomla installer for the file VM.Postcode.shipping.4.0.0.zip.

The next step is to go to Virtuemart-->Shop->Shipment Methods and click 'New'.
Configure the various parameters. These are:

  • Country.
  • Lowest Weight.
  • Highest Weight.
  • Minimum number of products.
  • Maximum number of products.

  • Trigger by weight or price
  • Price Multiplier - choose to multiply by weight or Sales Price.
  • Price Multiplier Type - choose if to add the base value to the multiplier value.
  • Full debug on/off

vm4.0 postcode shipping configuration-overview


Our VirtueMart 4 UK Postcode Shipping Plugin allows a complete UK/Canadian Postcode area solution with only one setup.
Below is a configuration example for a relatively simple UK postage scheme.

Our VirtueMart 4 Shipping Plugin allows a very simple configuration of all Postcode areas in one method.

You no longer need multiple shipping methods for every Postcode area PLUS it works perfectly with Alpha/Numeric codes that are needed in the UK and Canada.

The UK Postcode example below breaks the Uk up into 6 zones:

  • Northern Scotland
  • Central Scotland
  • Northern Ireland
  • The Channel Islands
  • Central London Congestion Zone
  • Everywhere else

This example isn't complete to save space but you can see how to break up the postcodes. The plugin searches for matches starting with 4 figures and works backwards to a single figure.

virtuemart 2.0 uk postcode plugin example 2

virtuemart 2.0 uk postcode plugin example
With the settings above a parcel to an Inverness postcode starting with IV2 83  and below a value of £25.00 would cost £45.50 and 75p for each £25.00 after that. When the order reached £200.00 the parcel would be postage free.

Northern Ireland would be £15.00 for the first £25.00 and 55p for each £25.00 and no free postage.

The Default section covers any postcode that isn't found.

This plugin is highly adaptable and I have done many minor custom changes to the clients  plugin to acheive different postage schemes - for example by weight blocks or even by psuedo catergories.

If you have any custom requests just send me an email via our contact page.

Have included the code below as it can be used as a good starting point for the configuration.

 
Southern_Scotland,IV283*IV438*IV448*IV458*IV468*IV478*IV488*IV499*IV510*IV519*IV558*IV568,45.50,0.75,2.00,200
Northen_Scotland,HS12*HS19*HS20*HS29*HS33*HS43*HS53*HS65,45.50,0.75,2.00,20,,
Northern_Ireland,BT,15.00,0.55,,
Channel_Islands,IM*GY*JE,45.50,0.75,,
Central_London,E16*E17*EC1A1*EC1A2*EC1A4*EC1A7*EC1A9,8.00,0.30,,
