Shop Shipping Method

Hi,

If a Shop cart qualifies for two shipping methods (e.g. Standard Shipping and Next Day Delivery), should the cheapest be applied automatically? My cart is currently applying the more expensive Next Day Delivery by default, which isn't ideal.

Short diagnostics:

P.S. Site is here:

Newgate Clocks

Any cart under £50 shows options of Standard Shipping or Next Working Day if you want to test.

Cheers!

I think it should apply the cheapest qualifying method, but once you've chosen a method it will default to that.

It is definitely going for the most expensive in this case, which is odd. Thought it might be using the one with the lowest shippingID, but that would be Standard Shipping.

What does debug output when it's evaluating the options?

This is what is in debug - Next Day is being matched first, not sure if that is significant:

0.9297  0.0004  Rejecting shipping method ‘Free Shipping’ because: cart value is less than minimum for this shipping type
0.9298  0.0001  Cart value: 22. Shipping min price: 50
0.9298  0.0001  Qualifying shipping method ‘Next Working Day’
0.9299  0.0001  Qualifying shipping method ‘Standard Shipping’
0.93    0.0001  Rejecting shipping method ‘European Shipping’ because: no price available for chosen shipping zone
0.9301  0.0001  [1] SELECT * FROM clocks_shop_shippings WHERE shippingID='3' AND shippingDeleted IS NULL LIMIT 1
0.9303  0.0003  Using shipping zone: UK

Hmm, yes it could be.
