There is a major issue with the payment en shipping modules in PrestaShop.

The problem is that if I set-up my shop with 2 carriers (pickup and deliver) and 2 payment (cash on pickup and bankwire) I cannot force the carrier modules to only have 1 payment module.

Lets say my customer chooses the deliver-carrier option, I want him to only have the Bankwire payment option and not the CasOnPickup.
Same goes for any other set-up I create.

In osCommerce we have Ship2Pay, we need such a thing for PrestaShop a.s.a.p.

Or am I missing the point?

BUMP!

Is there no-one who recognize this problem?

Hi TropischBruin,

My guess is that we have to look in order.php and there combine those two items.
I will give it some attention after the Xmass hollidays.

I'm not sure if this is want you want.
I think a better solution is to have options within PS where you can use somethin like a dropdown box in the carrier configuration to choose:

1. when left empty the carrier can be used with any payment module
2. when set to cash-on-pickup it will only allow this payment module and nothing else.

Thans anyway foor your time!

I don't think there is room for this in prestashop now (not with a module atleast)
but it should be possible to make some kind of check on the paymentmodule code and see what carrier is selected.

you can get what you want, if you modify the payment module.
$cart->id_carrier should be something you might want to check at

OK, so the payment-modules should check on the carriers used.
Hmm, that is not so easy to do (meaning that I'm no php-coder ;-) ).

Adding a code I can, thinking on what code to use I cannot.

Is it an idea to add the carrier and payment on the product page in the admin panel?
Let's say you have a product X, a carrier Y and a payment Z.

Now on the catalog> product page you choose the carrier and the payment that you want this product to have.
So you can tell PS that you want product X only uses carrier Y and payment Z, product A can use carrier B and payment C, for example.

That is to much of a hassle.

Best is:

Set: Carrier1 = payment1
Set: Carrier2 = payment2

Of no choice (set) is made then:

carrier 1 = payment1 or payment2

Hhmmm..

Ok, but i have some products like licenses, who can be payed after delivery (in dutch: op rekening)
When the customer does'nt pay the bill, i allways can cancell the license.
However, when a customer buys a solar panel, and he can pay after delivery, and he does'nt pay his bill then it is very difficult to get back my goods. When i can sat that the solar panel can be shipped by TNT and payed by iDeal, i have no risk.

[TropischBruin]

This you can do by using the weight (gewicht) of the product.

A license weights nothing compared to a solarscreen :lol:

[Merchant]

Ok, i did not looked at this possibility yet Thx. :red:
And it depends if you're talking about financial or natural weights. :-)

I think this is only possible (currently) by editing the payment modules. In effect you could choose not to display a payment option if a particular carrier has been selected (using a hard-coded carrier_id).

In payment modules there is always a hookPayment() function which displays the payment method. Within this function you would do your test for the carrier.

So, for example if someone has picked a carrier that takes payment on delivery, you don't want to allow payment by PayPal to be an option. In paypal.php (line 139) there is:

    public function hookPayment($params)
    {
        global $smarty;

        $address = new Address(intval($params['cart']->id_address_invoice));
        $customer = new Customer(intval($params['cart']->id_customer));
        $business = Configuration::get('PAYPAL_BUSINESS');
        $currency = $this->getCurrency();

etc.

Lets's say your cash on delivery carrier has the id of 2, then you could change the above to:

    public function hookPayment($params)
    {
        global $smarty;

        $cart = new Cart(intval($params['cart']));
        if (intval($cart->id_carrier==2)) return;

        $address = new Address(intval($params['cart']->id_address_invoice));
        $customer = new Customer(intval($params['cart']->id_customer));
        $business = Configuration::get('PAYPAL_BUSINESS');
        $currency = $this->getCurrency();

This will disable PayPal for any checkout processes where the customer has selected the carrier with the ID of 2.

A bit messy, but it would provide a quick fix.

This is done via phpMyAdmin.

[tintacreative]

i got it right tho, and thanks a lot for this great applications.

For those who dont know how to upload the module_carrier.sql. These are the steps

1. Login into your cpanel
2. Click on phpmyadmin
3. On the left side, click on the database you use for your prestashop.
4. You can see list of tables on your left, and then on top, click import tabs.
5. Before you import the table, take a look at the prefix used by all the tables inside your database, and open the module_carrier.sql using notepad.
6. Change CREATE TABLE `PREFIX_module_carrier` PREFIX to the correct prefix used by your tables, in my case the prefix is ps_, so i change it to CREATE TABLE `ps_module_carrier`.
7. Save it.
8. At the import tab, browse the file, and click go.
9. Then everything should be ok.

Thanks again to the creator.

Thanks tintacreative for the description of getting the modifications into the database.
