Shipping methods¶
The shipping methods are defined via TypoScript for each shopping cart. The standard template already comes with a shipping method (standard) as shown below.
With the definition plugin.tx_cart.settings.allowedCountries
the output of
the selector in the shopping cart is defined. The options can also be
translated by an own SelectViewhelper
.
Important
If different shipping methods are defined for different countries, the country of the delivery address is used. Only in the case that no different delivery address has been specified, the selection of the billing address is used as a basis.

plugin.tx_cart {
shippings {
zones {
1 {
preset = 1
countries = de,at,ch
options {
1 {
title = Standard

Note
The system first searches for a suitable configuration in the list of country configurations.
The list of zone configurations is then looked through. The first matching configuration is used.
Deactivate shipping methods¶
At the moment, the existence of a shipping method is required for the processing of an order. That means that at least one shipping method must be specified. In this case the selection block for the payment can be hidden.
plugin.tx_cart {
settings {
showCartAction {
showPartials {
shippingMethodForm = false
}
}
}
}
