@neuroticartist,
In WP admin, Shopp, Setup>Preferences you will see a new section: Shopp Arrange.
Check: ‘Force custom order instead of priced based ordering’.
I don’t use ‘Force custom order for Shopp Categories’ but I guess it works the same way.
Now the shipping option you have saved FIRST, is selected automatically (by default) when the customer goes through checkout.
(Normally Shopp selects the lowest price by default)
This has been a bug-bear for me, right since the very first inception of Shopp.
I need a free shipping option to be available for certain items.
However that means that the free shipping option is automatically selected by default, for every customer that goes through checkout.
You wouldn’t believe the number of refunds I have had to perform over the years, because a customer just rushed through; assuming the shopping cart would select the correct shipping option.
Can’t believe this has not been made part of the shopp core functions.
Really Great work Clif!
