This post is based on question in Prestashop forum hilangkan keterangan “Remaining amount to be added to your cart in order to obtain free shipping”. Imagine if your shop wouldn’t provide free shipping service after fulfill certain amount either of money or total product weights. We think this configuration should be configured easily from Preferences tab menu, but there isn’t here. In this tutorial I want to share my experience  how to analyze Prestashop code to solve our problem.

Case Study : How to disable “Remaining amount to be added to your cart in order to obtain free shipping” in cart summary.

In this tutorial we use Ubuntu as main OS, because there is “Search for files” menu in this great opensource OS. For another OS you can try this tutorial by using another tools which provide search for text in file.

#1 Search the clue in Prestashop code

The benefit using opensource ecommerce software like PrestaShop is we can analyze how the system works. If there is some part on the web with text “Remaining amount to be added to your cart in order to obtain free shipping”, this text should be written in the source code or database. Try for search it using your utility, i’m here using my Ubuntu 8.10

Search for files

Remaining amount to be added to your cart in order to obtain free shipping

With this tool we know that file ../ps124/themes/prestashop/shoppint-cart.tpl contain string “Remaining amount to be added to your cart in order to obtain free shipping”. This file is used for generate view from a website, this smarty file is used by prestashop theme.

#2 Analyze file shopping-cart.tpl

Open your file and find the code which contain “Remaining … “

Find for "remaining"

Find for "remaining"

we get

{if $free_ship > 0}
 <tr>
 <td colspan="6" style="white-space: normal;">{l s='Remaining amount to be added to your cart in order to obtain free shipping:'}</td>
 <td>{convertPrice price=$free_ship}</td>
 </tr>
 {/if}

Repeat this step (Search in files, analyze, etc) for variable found in yours code. In shopping-cart.tpl there is a clue with variable $free_ship. Because if $free_ship variable value greater than 0, PrestaShop will show “Remaining … “ in shopping cart summary.
