Presently, when we add products into\u00a0the cart\u00a0and move to the checkout section to avail of discount and shipping then we see that the discount applies after shipping.
\nLet’s\u00a0say,<\/p>\n
- \n
- Cart total amount is $100 which avail Free Shipping and some discount of 5% is also added<\/li>\n
- Then after the discount Total Amount of the cart is set to below $100 but still, Free Shipping applies which should not happen. Free Shipping must apply to the Final Total amount of the cart after the discount.<\/li>\n
- This is\u00a0the default\u00a0process of Prestashop. Refer to the screenshot below where shipping must be Free if Order Total is > 50 but it has applied Free Shipping while Order Total is < 50 after discount –<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Why the current issue is there?<\/strong><\/h3>\n
The current issue is there because the shipping amount is being calculated on the Order Total amount which is set into the Cart before applying the discount. You can check the lines of code below where Order Total without discount amount is being used to calculate shipping –<\/p>\n
$shipping_cost += $carrier->getDeliveryPriceByPrice($the_total_price, $id_zone, (int)$this->id_currency);<\/pre>\n
Requirement<\/strong><\/h3>\n
We need to modify the\u00a0below-mentioned\u00a0file to fix the same. We will be overriding the corresponding lines of the class\u00a0file to avoid any changes in Core files.<\/p>\n
Below is the list of class files which will be overridden-<\/h3>\n

$listeDiscounts = $this->getCartRules();\r\n$total_discounts = 0;\r\nif (is_array($listeDiscounts)) {\r\nif (isset($listeDiscounts[0]['value_real']))\r\n$total_discounts = $listeDiscounts[0]['value_real'];\r\n}\r\n$price_to_apply_shipment = floatval($order_total) - floatval($total_discounts);\r\n\r\n<strong>Recommended Read: <\/strong><a href="https:\/\/www.knowband.com\/blog\/opencart-blog\/best-free-shipping-manager-extension-opencart-store\/">Best Free Shipping Manager Extension for OpenCart Store<\/a><\/pre>\n4.<\/strong> Replace the lines mentioned below –<\/p>\n
