This page describes the templates used to generate the shipping method form, seen below.

 

 

Primary Templates

 

ship_method_header.php

This controls the appearance of the very top of the shipping method form.

 

ship_method_courier_header.php

This controls the appearance of the top of a single courier's section.

 

ship_method_courier_footer.php

This controls the appearance of the bottom of a single courier's section.

 

ship_method_courier_rate.php

This controls the appearance of a single service and it's associated rate.

 

ship_method_courier_separator.php

This controls the appearance of the space between 1 courier and the next. It is only used when there is more than one courier listed.

 

ship_method_footer.php

This controls the appearance of the very bottom of the shipping method form.

 

ship_method_courier_selection.php

This template is not always used. Certain couriers require that you do not show their rates on the same page as other courier's rates. For this reason, Squirrelcart may show a page listing 2 or more couriers. Clicking on the courier will display that courier's rates. In this case, this template file is used to display a courier for selection.

The following templates are not always used. They are used when the customer has items in their cart that are set to ship using a specific service, along with other items that are set to ship using enabled services. In this case, they receive a message above the shipping choices similar to:

        Item 1

        Item 2

 

Choose your shipping method for the remaining item(s):
