Now a question: Is it possible to calculate shipping charges depending on overall order sum? I want to offer free shipping for orders over a certain amount.
Anyone has a clue?

Lutz.. The Tax and Discount plugin achieves what you want, not by changing the shipping amount, but by giving a discount at a definable amount. So you always charge shipping but set the discount to the same amount as your shipping charge when the basket amount reaches a certain level.

Sounds great, but i dont find the way to give a fixed discount, only discounts as percentage of the overall sum? Can anyone help?

Quite right. I had forgotten that I only allowed for percentage discount rates, not absolute amounts. Sorry.

so... I'm not a coding genius, so Idon't really know how to do this... I guess I would have to eliminate the delivery options and replace it by script that selects the right delivery method depending on the basketSummary. I don't really figure out whereI would have to put that code though, maybe anyonecan help?

I have a plugin for Banded Courier charges, but it is based on the number of items in the basket, not the value of the basket. If I get the chance I will see if I can enhance it to give the option of basing it on the value of the basket. Don't hold your breath though!

Ok, maybe i am a coding genius;-)
if anyone is intrested, this is how I did it: change the taxAndDiscount.js and add:
add these lines in "function taxAndDiscount" right before the //DISCOUNT section.
thats it...
I had modified the selectCourier section according to a thread ere on the forum to always have the same Courier preselected and no further choice, so i don't know if this works withe multiple courier options...

Please see the Workaround for a similar solution (add order costs is basket value is less then a preset value) Click the link below
The workaround is fully detailed and has a step by step description.
By the way, Lutz, do we share the same brain? LOL
