Shipping Estimator

[toyseller]

Zen Cart v1.5.7c
Php Version PHP Version 7.3.33
Big Royal Mail

Please could I have some help getting my shipping estimator to work.

Firstly I could see messages in my log showing
PHP Deprecated: Methods with the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; rm1stpacket has a deprecated constructor in /home/tidytoys/public_html/includes/modules/shipping/rm1stpacket.php on line 12

So I have changed made the following coding changes

// class constructor
// function rmairsure() {
function _construct() {

I have 5 different choices for mailing. 3 are for uk customers and 2 are for outside the uk.
Big Royal Mail is nice and simple in the fact that I only need 2 files for each type of postage.

Now I have the Shipping Estimator showing ... but I only need the country to show up on the shipping estimator, the State/Province and Post Code options are not needed for estimating the costs. Even when completing all 3 choices Im not getting any estimates to show up.

Im getting this message in my log but dont know if its connected to the issue ...

--> PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant DATE_TIME_FORMAT - assumed 'DATE_TIME_FORMAT' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in /home/tidytoys/public_html/admin/includes/functions/general.php on line 189.

I will read and try and follow ...

But Please could you tell me how I remove the State and Post Code options from the menu ?

[toyseller]

This is really difficult for me.

Im not a coder and the files I use for Royal Mail calculation
arent the really complex ones that are used by other people.

I struggle and most of the things that are thrown at me to do I cant understand.

[toyseller]

Sorry .. but this means nothing to me ...

A number of constants which were unused by the core were removed from language files. If you use a plugin which relied on these defines, you should expect a PHP Notice in your /logs folder. To resolve this, define the needed constants in a plugin specific file or an override, as appropriate. Some of the defines removed are DATE_FORMAT_SHORT and DATE_TIME_FORMAT, which some plugins may have used even though core Zen Cart code does not.

For calculating uk 1st class postage ...

I just have 2 files

I'm, unfortunately, not familiar with the Royal Mail shipping module ... but I'll try to help. It looks like you're using a clone of the built-in 'responsive_classic' template; please advise.

[toyseller]

Yes, Im using the responsive_classic template but have just adjusted settings and messed about to get it how I want it to look

[toyseller]

With the shipping ... I just replicate these 2 files for each shipping type that I have.

Royal Mail can be complicated but Im just after a simple solution as Im working by the weight of the item and finding
a corresponding postal price for that weight band.

I have 1st, 2nd Class post and courier for uk customers

and two different Royal Mail products for overseas.

I only need to know the country the parcel is being sent to.

Hence, the State/Province and Zip/Post Code can be removed from the shipping estimator box.

The trouble is that I dont have any coding experience with modern languages and just muddle through.
I can find my way round zen cart to change lines that Im told to change but cant come up with my own solutions.

[toyseller]

I removed the changes I did to the code ...

"So I have changed made the following coding changes

// class constructor
// function rmairsure() {
function _construct() { "

And now the shipping is showing ...
except now the 1st and 2nd class isnt now showing in my admin panel
