[quote="EnhanceYourVision.com"]Hey, this sounds like a great feature! But I don't have the Shopping Cart box in my store? so instead I would like to add this feature to my shopping cart PAGE under the total price? So before they checkout they get a notice saying, "Hey, spend another $20 and you get free shipping!" 

Is this possible, and if so how?

Thank you![/quote]

Add the line to english.php and then wherever you want the line to display, add:

[quote]if ($cart->show_total() < MODULE_ORDER_TOTAL_SHIPPING_FREE_SHIPPING_OVER) { 
      $add_to_get_free_shipping = MODULE_ORDER_TOTAL_SHIPPING_FREE_SHIPPING_OVER - $cart->show_total(); 
      echo '<p>' . sprintf(BOX_SHOPPING_CART_FREE_SHIPPING, $currencies->format($add_to_get_free_shipping)); 
   }[/quote]

It worked for someone in product_info.php.  I don't see why it wouldn't work on any other page as well.  Let me know if it doesn't.
