Block Delivery Destination by Country

[gearup]

Hi,

I have been looking at how to do this but cant see what to do without thinking I am going to break something

The situation I have is a shop but I need to block delivery to a country (Switzerland).

Basically we only have an export license for our products so in country sales destinations need to be blocked.

I am thinking the way to do this is to disable the specific country selection when the address is entered during the order process.

There would also need to be a message somewhere like [Switzerland-No] representing a text in the language files,
"delivery to Switzerland is not allowed"
and for the Deutsch pages,
"Lieferung zu die Schweiz ist nicht Erlaubt"

Any hints please..

regards,

Check this post...

You can do the same, by removing Switzerland (and more countries if you like).

Thank you nibz,

That post showed me what to do.

I have removed the Switzerland lines from the EN & DE files and now that destination is no longer selectable as I wanted.

I am now trying to display a message which I inserted into the language dir EN & DE files and it is driving me crazy.

For example, I have the text added in the EN file,

Code: [Select]

$MOD_BAKERY['TXT_NO_DELIVERY'] = 'Delivery not Permitted: Switzerland';

and to display it just under the existing message in file form/title.htm

Code: [Select]

<p class ="mod_bakery_form_p_f">{TXT_FILL_IN_ADDRESS}:</p>
<p class ="mod_bakery_form_p_f">{TXT_NO_DELIVERY}--test</p>

however it does not display, I just see --test

what is going on

define the placeholders in the view_form.php
like

Code: [Select]

'TXT_NO_DELIVERY' => $MOD_BAKERY['TXT_NO_DELIVERY'],
i'm not sure about the line, try it in the Placeholders block nearly Line 246
behind this line

Code: [Select]

// Show cust textfields block using template file
                $tpl->set_var(array(

Hi jacobi22,

The line I found was (bakery 1.59) view_form.php,

Code: [Select]

line 296 // Show ship form title using template file
$tpl->set_var(array(
'TXT_NO_DELIVERY' => $MOD_BAKERY['TXT_NO_DELIVERY'],
'TXT_FILL_IN_SHIP_ADDRESS' => $MOD_BAKERY['TXT_FILL_IN_SHIP_ADDRESS']
));
$tpl->parse('form', 'ship_title_block', true);

but it still does not display...

Now I found the right place for this on view_form.php at line 123,

Code: [Select]

'TXT_FILL_IN_ADDRESS' => $MOD_BAKERY['TXT_FILL_IN_ADDRESS'],
'TXT_NO_DELIVERY'           =>  $MOD_BAKERY['TXT_NO_DELIVERY'],

Now it all works and displays fine.

Thx for the support.

Testing this morning showed a problem.

While removing the country lines in the EN/DE files achieved my goal for the order destination address it caused a problem with the General Settings, shop country & state.

When Switzerland is no longer available this is not good as it is the correct value to be entered here.

I need to put back this change with the EN/DE files and work out some conditional code for the Order process step 1 country selection.

Maybe I could let it be shown but greyed out indicating not selectable.

Update: Man I cant work it out. I just need to disable a selection from a list but it doesnt work for me. I going for a walk, maybe that will help...
