Google Checkout & Shipping Methods

Post by sdlong02 » Tue Jul 14, 2009 10:22 am

I'm using user groups to limit public users from accessing several specific shipping methods.

These are custom shipping methods that I allow for specific customers so I did a simple check to only allow those shipping methods to a set of user groups that all of my eligble customers are in. So for a while it seemed like it was working, in which I stopped getting orders using these restricted shipping methods, but now I'm not sure if the synch follows through to GCO.

How does GCO pull the shipping methods and is there any way to limit specific methods from getting pulled? I have a GCO order in which the customer was able to choose one of these "restricted" shipping methods when customer is not in any of the groups with access

This problem is fixed in 7.0.2 Plus. Have a look at following bug in 7.0.2 change log
7570 normal GoogleCheckout displays shipping methods that are not applicable

Please go to your Google console and check that what response Google is getting when it queries your website. In fact once user enters his/her address in Google checkout then Google makes a call to your store by sending user address and available shipping methods to find out applicable shipping methods. If this callback fails due some problem or took more then 3 seconds to complete then Google lists all methods to user.
