The format is:
Name,Postcode*Postcode*Postcode,BasePrice,PriceMultiplier,PriceTrigger,PriceFree
Each zone is on a new line.

vm4.0 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.
