NUMBER OF ITEMS (GROUPED) OR FREE SHIPPING

The number of items (grouped) module (numgrpf) allows the store owner to specify different shipping rates based on the method of shipping AND the number of items in the order.

This MIVA Merchant module accepts number of items ranges. For example, with 1-5 items, the charge might be $5.00. For 6-10 items, the charge might be $7.50.

This module has the added ability to permit free shipping when the order reaches a specific dollar amount independent of which number of items group the order falls into. Below that dollar amount the module uses the rate for the number of items group. If your intent is to have a free shipping option, but NOT calculate shipping charges based on the number of items, do not use this module. Rather, use the Minimum or Subtotal Shipping by World Zone module.

The store owner sets up the ranges and the free shipping level through the standard MIVA Merchant admin interface. Multiple shipping methods can be setup, all with different ranges and free shipping level.
