Shopper Group assigned to country using GeoIP

Hi,

i am using
- Joomla 2.5
- VirtueMart 2.0
- Metamod 3.13b
- GeoLocator 1.5.0

I need a help with a little problem. I need to set shopper group by country of visitor (not logged in).

If someone comes from Ireland, his Shopper Group will be different than the shopper group of someone who come from Australia (without the need of logging in)

I allready have something like:
if ($fromCountryId == "CZ") $shoppergroup = 3;

I really have no clue how to continue. Thank you for your time.
Daniel

Re: Shopper Group assigned to country using GeoIP

Hi,

you can do this with Chameleon, not with MetaMod -- by the time MetaMod runs its PHP, VirtueMart has already calculated everything with the existing shopper group. Chameleon runs before VM starts up, so it can change the shopper group.

With Chameleon you can set up a rule with "CZ" as the country, then select the shopper group from a dropdown in the "Succeed action".

Then create a new rule for each country that you want to assign a new shopper group for.

Cheers,
Stephen
