    Feature request - Prevent multiple Shipping Methods being shown at Checkout

    Hi

    Could you please consider adding an option to each Shipping Method to stop further shipping methods being processed in the checkout if this shipping method is applicable to the order, so we can arrange our shipping methods in order to ensure the customer is only shown the cheapest shipping method.

    To give a real world example if using Royal Mail 1st class shipping you need at least 3 different 1st class shipping methods set up for Large Letter, Small Packet and Medium Packet with weights and shipping codes used to define which product can ship with which method.

    With standard Bluepark Shipping Method logic an order may qualify for more than one of those shipping methods giving them a choice of 1st Class Large Letter at say £1.50 or 1st Class Small Packet at £3.50. Obviously the customer is never going to want to choose the more expensive shipping method so we only want to display the first cheaper option. We get round this currently using some custom written Javascript on the checkout page to hide the other shipping methods in the above scenario but it's not ideal and needs payment to a web developer if we wanted to change the logic of the code. If Bluepark Shipping Methods had a tickbox option in each to stop processing further Shipping Methods if this one applies it would be a lot easier to manage and allow us to tailor the shipping more than we currently do.

    Thanks
