Sending outside of Norway

Hi

Thank you for the feedback!

Yes, there are some known limitation in the plugin today

* When the plugin requests Fraktguiden for prices it does not tell Fraktguiden the ‘send-from-country’, meaning Norway is always used as ‘from-country’ for calculation which may not be desirable.
* The plugin may lack some Fraktguiden services

Some Fraktguiden products may not support countries outside of Norway

We will try to update the plugin soon so this works better. Stay tuned

Also, If you are a developer you could always try to clone the project, fix the issue and make a pull request ??

Cheers!

I am, but not PHP, mostly desktop C#, Java, Delphi. But, looked at the code, it’s very clean and easy to understand, so I’ll go ahead and implement the things I’ve uncovered from Bring’s demo for Fraktguiden.

Cheers!

Cool!
Right now the documentation for contributing has room for improvement.
Hopefully it will have some more information soon.

As you probably know this is a WordPress plugin or more precise, a plugin for Woo Commerce.

A basic introduction to WP plugins can be found here, https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Writing_a_Plugin

The meat of Bring Fraktguiden for WooCommerce extends the / WooCommerce / Shipping Method class

This thread will flagged as resolved now. If you have more questions etc. please create a new thread.

Cheers!

I haven’t had the patience and/or time to understand git yet, but I got the international rates to show when updating the class-wc-shipping-method-bring according to the most recent info from Bring Fraktguiden.

Sorry for posting it here, I’ll learn how to do it properly when I get around to look at it:

Good work! We should release a patch as soon as support for ‘other countries’ has been tested.

Scheduled for version 1.2.1

Please note that changes made to your ‘instance’ of the plugin will be overwritten by an official update.

Nice ?? I could see in the git-diff that I accidentally deleted the COURIER_6H option. I’ve fixed this (same link as above)

We may have to shrink the list in the first round.

Eg. Do you think the Home Delivery services should be here?

https://developer.bring.com/api/products
(see the footnotes for the services)

Some of the services requires a ‘Preferred delivery date
‘ etc. which the plugin does not support at the moment. We may implement these the future

See your point regarding Home Delivery. I got all bulldozer-mode and just added all the services supported by Shipping Guide API.

I really don’t need that service at all, and the need for a customer number puts this out of scope for this change.

I could really find the thing about preferred delivery date?

I’m in contact with Bring developers to get them to add support for A-POST, B-POST and SMAAPAKKER… to other countries than Norway. Should not need any change in this plugin.

Goal for the weekend: Learn to use git (can i use SVN? I’m comfortable with this) and implement fuel surcharge in your plugin

Thank you for your contribution!

Is it ok if we add oakidoaki to the plugin’s contribution list?

Of course!

BTW: Do you have any “to-do-list” or roadmap for the plugin? It was rather fun to do programming again in a new language, I’m up for challenges

Any updates on whether Bring will add international support for A-POST, B-POST and SMAAPAKKER?

I’ve been in contact with Bring. They are: “We’ll put in on our list”.

Meanwhile I made a version of Fraktguiden that calculates A- and B-POST and SMAAPAKKER for international shipments that we use on our site.

But this does only use the Fraktguiden service for the ones the Fraktguiden provides. For the intnl a-post etc the plugin calculates the freight

@oakidoaki If you’re comfortable with sharing your modified version of this plugin including A, B and Sm?pakker for internal shipments I would love to test it on a site I’m managing!

Hi @simenschi – let me update this for the latest version of Frakguiden first. I’ll give you a notice ??
