Combine Style in Opencart

Combine style is where you choose what option you want Opencart to handle combined orders.

In Opencart go to (Extensions> Modules> Shipping> Click edit on the “OMINS/Easylister” shipping option) to see the combine style options, please refer to the screenshot below.

1. Never combine – This option will not do any combining on the orders shipping fee.

For example if your item has a base shipping of $5 and the customer bought 3 the total shipping fee will be $15

2.  Use additional item cost only for more than one of the same product – This means that if you have 2 different items upon checkout it will not combine the shipping of the 2 items. Both items will have their base shipping fee applied but any additional quantity of  the same product will rely on the “additional item cost” you set in OMINS shipping. (please see screenshot of the OMINS setup of base and additional item cost)

 

3.  Use additional items cost for any extra product

Let’s say you have 2 different items on your cart, this option will just get the shipping amount of the item with the highest shipping rate.

For example

Item 1 shipping rate =$10

Item 2 shipping rate = $5

 

The total shipping amount for the order will just be $10, item 2’s shipping fee will be ignored since it will only fetch the highest shipping rate.
