YourePerfect 17 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Site URL: https://seahorse-soybean-ygpf.squarespace.com/ I manage an artist cooperative and some of our works are not reasonable to ship and need to be local pick up only. I know how to make a "flat rate" local pick up option, but I don't see a way to specify that a particular product should be available only for local pickup. Any ideas? I'm open to plugins or even coding a workaround myself (but it would be great if there is something already existing). andyh 1 Link to post
GHjosh 5 Share Posted April 14, 2020 As Squarespace has so bluntly informed me, per product options such as local pickup only or GST (Tax) Free, are not available on the Squarespace platform. I am truly sympathetic to your plight. If you manage to find someone who has a solution for adding per production options, I would love to hear about it. YourePerfect 1 Link to post

Well that stinks, that seems like a pretty obvious thing that they should support. I'll poke around some more and maybe there is a way to custom code it or something. HeatherE 1 Link to post

YourePerfect 17 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 No, from what I can tell you would need to use a third party inventory and shopping cart system (that you would probably need to integrate yourself). I don't think there is any way to finesse the Squarespace platform into supporting it. HeatherE 1 Link to post
YourePerfect 17 Author Share Posted May 6, 2020 Ok I figured out one workaround for my situation. I currently offer USPS and local pickup options. I wanted to offer some items local only. If I set the size of the item to like 100" x 100" x 100" and 100lbs then its too big for USPS and it will only offer the local options to the customer.

This is brilliant & just helped me to solve this issue for a client. Thank you so much! Link to post
CheshireGarden 5 Share Posted Sunday at 03:38 PM (edited) This seemed like a great idea, but there's a catch. If the customer orders some local pickup only items AND some shippable items, intending to pick them up, then the customer is offered USPS shipping in addition to local pickup! This seems like a Squarespace bug as it's not possible to ship 100+ pounds USPS! Edit: What happens is that SQS decides the items are "oversize/overweight" and excludes them from the shipping calculations! Despite the knowledge base article on large/heavy items suggesting adding a flat rate for local pickup, it incorrectly quotes the user rates without the "heavy" item. I still think this is a bug.
