Aliexpress module included.
The aliexpress module is included with this extension free of charge, for real-time fetching of aliexpress shipping data. You can plug into this extension with your own fetching module, which accesses your own provider for shipping methods. You may also adjust the various options of the module and enable fetching of shipping data from a database table.
Standard & Premium Shipping.
Cart products are iterated and shipping data is fetched. ModularShipping then intelligently rates the shipping methods, and chooses the 2 or more best methods per cart item (one possibly free and the rest paid). The first methods are combined to provide a Standard Shipping option and second methods are combined to provide a Premium one, a Platinum one etc. The options are diplayed to the customer with the combined prices and dates.
Backup Shipping Methods.
If online data is not required or is not available for a while, the module can make use of a database table as a source and/or backup of shipping data. Just fill in the table and it can be used as a source of a number of shipping methods for each product. If live data is to be used, the table can act as a backup for emergencies.
Debug mode.
Useful for the administrator to see how the different shipping methods are combined. This mode is only visible by any user logged into the admin backend. Customers will never see any debug data at checkout even if this mode is enabled and even if anyone is logged into the admin backend.

Special Requirements
In order for the module to function, each product which will require a shipping price quotation from an external source (e.g. aliexpress), must have its 'location' field in the products table populated, so that this extension can access the remote provider and download shipping information.
Any products that are not covered by the fetching modules, fall back to the 'unsupported module' for a shipping method and price.
