Add-On: Custom Shipment Carriers & Tracking Number Process

[quote name='P-Pharma' timestamp='1433847939' post='218001']

I have bought your addon but now see that it does not add custom shipment carriers to CS-Cart. It only adds a tracking link. Not the custom carrier itself. The addon name is confusing.

Dear @P-Pharma,



Custom Shipment Carriers & Tracking Number Process”[list=1]

[]You can add a custom carrier

[
]Add also send customers with a single click to tracking info from carrier

[/list]

You can do both of them, why you consider confusing?

I would like to add custom carriers so that the correct shipping rates for these carriers are automatically calculated. Just like for the default carriers. Does your addon do this?

Sorry, but the add-on does not do realtime shipping calculation, the add-on is doing exact what you in the description and in demo store



If you need something extra please open a ticket and we will do our best to help you

I could have known if I used the demo better. So its partly my fault. But if you state in the addon title and in the description that the addon adds a custom carrier to CS-Cart then it seems that it adds a custom carrier here: admin.php?dispatch=shippings.manage

But it does not. Consider to clarify this better to prevent others from making the same mistake.



It's not a big deal. Maybe I will find use for the addon.

I will have shipping rate calculation addons developed for various carriers.

Just thought Id give a list of a few Carriers we use in Australia:



Australia Air Express

Startrack

TOLL

Couriers Please

Parcel & Postage Tracking - Track Your Item > CouriersPlease



TNT

TNT Express - Track a Package



Direct Freight

There are others of course.

Its interesting to note that the Carriers KB page shows no method to add carriers to v4.x.x … Nothing! … YHGTBFJ

CS-Cart Documentation — CS-Cart 4.15.x documentation

After installing the addon, should I add each carrier manually? What parameters should be used?
For example PostNL has this format:

https://www.internationalparceltracking.com/Main.aspx#/track/[TRACKING_NUMBER]/COUNTRY_CODE]/[ZIP_CODE]

The variable for tracking number is supported, but are there variables for country code and zip code?

The tracking url for PostNL in your demo doesn't work anymore.

Is there any way to disable specific default carriers?

Its very good addon.. I can add new carriers and its working properly for customers..

If the oder is shipped by already existing carrier like fedex, dhl or anything then its all ok..

but if the order is shipped by newly added carrier the tracking number which apears in admin panel does no redirect to the tracking url...

http://prntscr.com/dorm4f

it is redrecting to the order detail page itself..

how can i solve this??

Can you post also the tracking url you add for the new carrier? thank you

NOTE: for the tracking url please add the full link with http or https so the final link can look like

http://www.test.com/tracking_number=[TRACKING_NUMBER]

Will this work with CS-Cart 4.4.2?

Hi Vali

Sorry to say but I could not download the latest version from my account with you.

I am on V4.4.3 right now and the addon more or less is not working anymore since the upgrade from V4.3.8. The hyperlink is not clickable anymore since the upgrade.

Yours truly,

Anthony

what if i dont want to show the existing carriers in carriers list??

can you be more explicit, please

Folks everyone following this topic, there is an update and it works fine now again, fully proof that it works on V4.4.3 and later. But you will need to get the upgraded version.

Valentin has done a great job I believe with this addon.

That is an issue with CS Cart that they need to fix, nothing to do with this addon

my point was that i just dont want to show the existing carriers of cscart in carrier list..

i have fixed it temporarily by commenting the code

{foreach from=$carriers item="code"}
{__("carrier_`$code`")}
{/foreach}
in
\design\backend\templates\addons\hw_custom_carrier\overrides\common\carriers.tpl

With the version cannot be removed from tpl file, if you already have purchased from our website please open a ticket and we will create a custom add-on that will disable the default cs-cart carriers ;) , thank you

Hi,

does this addon allow to automatically get tracking number from shipping company by API or the tracking number has to be added manually for every order in CSC back office?

thanks
