Scripts examples

Migrating a free shipping over a threshold script

If a Plus store had exactly one shipping script, it was this one. It is also the entry where the app’s own preview and the real checkout quote different savings on purpose, and knowing why is worth two minutes on camera.

Rebuilt
What the Script did

It discounted every delivery rate to zero once the cart subtotal passed a threshold.

Run it against your own store

Paste it into Scripts rescue and watch what it rebuilds

  1. Copy the Ruby with the button beside any Script on this page.
  2. In your Shopify admin, open Stackable, then Tools, then Scripts rescue.
  3. Paste it there, read what the tool says it will build, and compare that with the settings on this page.

Scripts rescue is on the Pro plan. Nothing is published until you tell it what your old Script charged and the two figures match to the cent.

The Script

Rebuilt
The original Ruby

Input.shipping_rates.each do |shipping_rate|
  if Input.cart.subtotal_price >= Money.new(cents: 5000)
    shipping_rate.apply_discount(shipping_rate.price, message: "Free shipping over $50")
  end
end

Output.shipping_rates = Input.shipping_rates
What it becomes

Recognised as Shipping discount and rebuilt as a free_shipping offer. These are the real configuration keys the offer is saved with, so you can check your own rebuild against them field by field.

You will be asked to confirm
  • Confirm which products this applies to. We could not read product targeting from the script.
You will be told
  • This discounts every shipping rate at checkout, not one named rate.
The cart that proves it

Built on our public demo store, Meridian Goods, so every price here can be reproduced rather than taken on trust. The discount below is what the same engine that runs at checkout computes for this exact cart.

The figure the tool checks you against

This rebuild only changes shipping. We price shipping against a sample rate rather than the rate your shopper saw, so there is no figure here we could honestly compare. Publishing records that the amount was not checked.

Common questions

Will Stackable rebuild this script?
Yes. Every spelling on this page is rebuilt today as a free_shipping offer, and the cart above is the one that proves it.
What cart proves it works?
1 x Ceramic Travel Mug at $22.00 plus 1 x Summit Insulated Bottle at $28.00. The engine takes $6.90 off, and checkout charges $50.00 plus $0.00 delivery.
What will I have to check before publishing?
Confirm which products this applies to. We could not read product targeting from the script. This discounts every shipping rate at checkout, not one named rate.
