Shipping Estimator on Product Page changelog

All notable changes to Shipping Estimator on Product Page (kv_shipping_estimator_product) are documented here. The format follows Keep a Changelog and the project uses Semantic Versioning.

  • Works with Stock Statuses & Lead Times: when that add-on shows a status with a lead time for the product (“Ships in 3–5 days”), the delivery estimate counts the lead time as the least handling time, so the estimated arrival is never earlier than the dispatch date of the status. A longer handling time still wins; with Delivery Date & Time Slots the lead time is the least processing time. Without that add-on nothing changes.
  • Delivery estimate on the product page before Add to cart: location, cheapest or fastest method with price and arrival date, more options, order cut-off countdown, free shipping hint, “Ships from” on Multi-Vendor.
  • Calculation by the core shipping calculation on a temporary cart (this product, quantity and options, optionally plus the cart): manual rates, realtime carriers, freight, free shipping, promotions and taxes; option to leave realtime carriers out; rate cache with automatic refresh.
  • Location from the change form (kept in a cookie), the cart address, the profile or the store default.
  • Delivery dates: dispatch and delivery days, cut-off time, holidays, handling time (store, product, vendor) and transit days per shipping method or from its delivery time text.
  • Uses Kavio Delivery Date & Time Slots calendars and Kavio Shipping Goal Progress Bar goals when installed.
  • Positions: before Add to cart, below the product form, or a Block Manager block.
  • Full page cache support (CS-Cart 4.21).
