Zone Shipping

Post by Beachgirl » Sat Dec 04, 2010 3:05 pm

Is there any way to add multiple countries to a zone at the same time rather than adding them individually?

If your company ships world wide, you would have to enter around 250 countries one by one. Doing this through admin would be extremely labor intensive. Inserting them through phpMyAdmin would be easier but still time consuming.

Is there a work around this or am I missing a basic instruction on adding these?

In geozone, create a zone, xxx shipping and include the counties there.
You should be able to then use this geozone in zone shipping for one entry.

In geozone I have a zone called "International Shipping"
I want to include all countries except USA and Canada
That leaves me with 247 counties to add to the geozone "International Shipping"
- They need to be added one by one right?

Let me think on that to see if there is another solution.

I think we can create a solution similar to countries.
I'll just create a button in GeoZone where you can add all counties with one click.
You would then just have to delete the 2 you don't want in that geozone.

That sounds great! Thanks so much for looking into that. Please update me when you add that button as well as the Google RSS (viewtopic.php?f=7&t=292)

Worked Beautifully!! This is a really nice feature.
Adding a sort option to the geo zones would be a nice feature to add to your next update as well.

Thanks so much!
