Customize the list of shipping methods
This topic describes how to customize list of shipping methods displayed on the checkout page.
Let’s consider a case where you need to add a collapsible text field with description for each shipping method in this list. To achieve this, you need to take the following steps:
- Create a new template for the shipping method item.
- Create a new template for the shipping method list.
- Override the shipping step configuration.
Create new template for shipping method item
In your custom module directory, create a new file: <your_module_dir>/view/frontend/web/template/custom-method-item-template.html. In this file, add the following code.
It is copied from the <Magento_Checkout_module_dir>/view/frontend/web/template/shipping-address/shipping-method-item.html template, with the following modifications:
- a
<tr>element added to contain the shipping method description - a column with trigger elements that provide the collapse/expand functionality added
- the entire sample wrapped in
<tbody>to provide the general collapsible context for rows:
<!-- Initialize collapsible binding -->
<tbody collapsible="as: '$collapsible_' + method.method_code">
<tr class="row">
<td class="col col-method">
<input type="radio"
class="radio"
click="element.selectShippingMethod"
ifnot="method.error_message"
ko-checked="element.isSelected"
ko-value="method.carrier_code + '_' + method.method_code"
attr="'aria-labelledby': 'label_method_' + method.method_code + '_' + method.carrier_code + ' ' + 'label_carrier_' + method.method_code + '_' + method.carrier_code,
'checked': element.rates().length == 1 || element.isSelected" />
</td>
<td class="col col-price">
<each args="element.getRegion('price')" render="" />
</td>
<td class="col col-method"
attr="'id': 'label_method_' + method.method_code + '_' + method.carrier_code"
text="method.method_title" />
<td class="col col-carrier"
attr="'id': 'label_carrier_' + method.method_code + '_' + method.carrier_code"
text="method.carrier_title" />
<!-- Column with collapsible trigger -->
<td class="col">
<a toggleCollapsible="'$collapsible_' + method.method_code">
<span data-bind="i18n: 'Info'"></span>
</a>
</td>
</tr>
<!-- Row for shipping method description -->
<tr class="row" visible="$context['$collapsible_' + method.method_code].opened">
<td class="col" colspan="5" i18n="'Some description.'"/>
</tr>
<tr class="row row-error"
if="method.error_message">
<td class="col col-error" colspan="5">
<div role="alert" class="message error">
<div text="method.error_message"></div>
</div>
<span class="no-display">
<input type="radio"
attr="'value' : method.method_code, 'id': 's_method_' + method.method_code" />
</span>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>Create new template for shipping methods list
In your custom module directory, create a new file: <your_module_dir>/view/frontend/web/template/custom-method-list-template.html. In this file, add the following code. It uses the code from the app/code/Magento/Checkout/view/frontend/web/template/shipping-address/shipping-method-list.html template, with the following modifications:
- a column for triggers added in
<thead> tbodymoved to the item template for collapsible context
<div id="checkout-shipping-method-load">
<table class="table-checkout-shipping-method">
<thead>
<tr class="row">
<th class="col col-method" translate="'Select Method'"></th>
<th class="col col-price" translate="'Price'"></th>
<th class="col col-method" translate="'Method Title'"></th>
<th class="col col-carrier" translate="'Carrier Title'"></th>
<!-- Column for triggers -->
<th class="col"></th>
</tr>
</thead>
<!-- tbody was moved inside item template -->
<!-- ko foreach: { data: rates(), as: 'method'} -->
<!--ko template: { name: element.shippingMethodItemTemplate} --><!-- /ko -->
<!-- /ko -->
</table>
</div>Override shipping step configuration
In your custom module directory, create a new file: <your_module_dir>/view/frontend/layout/checkout_index_index.xml. In this file, add the following code. It overrides the shippingMethodListTemplate and shippingMethodItemTemplate properties of <Magento_Checkout_module_dir>/view/frontend/web/js/view/shipping.js:
