I have a $2.00 handling charge applied. I have this in the includes: $combineshippinghandling=TRUE;
I add products to the cart and get a shipping estimate. I've modified the text to remove the 'and handling'.
If I remove the $2 charge from the main settings, the estimate stays the same. Adding it back in, the estimate stays the same. It appears that the handling fee is not being applied to the order.
I checked the products to be sure they are not handling exempt.
I checked to make sure the options (sizes) have a weight applied.
Hi LadyM The estimator actually caches the result to save on calls to the shipping servers. So could you try something like change the quantity for the product and click, "Update" which should force a refresh?
I haven't been able to get USPS working yet so I'm using weight based. I have tried adding and removing products and yes, the estimate changes. But it doesn't change from the previous estimate if I remove the handling charge and force a refresh after emptying the cache.
