UK Delivery Estimate (for CS-Cart)

Show your customers when their order will arrive before they make a purchase.

Minimum Requirements

This add-on was tested on CS-Cart v4.4.1 (incl. Ultimate) and newer (tested up to v4.6.2). It is likely it will work for earlier releases, but unfortunately we cannot guarantee it.

Installation

To install the add-on, follow standard add-on installation instructions from the official CS- Cart documentation.

Configuration

The add-on comes pre-configured out-of-the-box, but you can tweak global settings by visiting add-on configuration sheet. Follow official instructions on how to configure your add-ons.

You can adjust three options:

  • Enable/disable adjustment for UK Bank Holidays (default: enabled);
  • Enable/disable adjustment for weekends (default: enabled);
  • Set a global cut-off time for estimating orders (default: 14:00:00).

Setting up shipping options

Before you can display delivery estimates, you need to explicitly enable them for each of your delivery methods.

Note, that delivery estimation works only when manual shipping calculation method is selected.

  1. Go to: Administration > Shipping & Taxes > Shipping Methods.
  2. Click on a name of a selected shipping method to open its configuration page.
  3. Towards the bottom of the General tab you should see a checkbox labelled Calculated delivery estimate. Check it.
  4. Scroll up and switch to the Delivery tab. Enter desired delivery timescales into the boxes. These values govern how many days will the delivery take approximately from the date the order is placed. If you offer same-day shipping and delivery, enter 0 (zero).
  5. Click on the Save and Close button to confirm all changes.
  6. From now on you and your customers should see available shipping options along with delivery estimates on the following pages:
    • Product page
    • Checkout
    • Order details page (customer/admin)
    • Order invoice (admin)
