[Old] Royal Mail Modules

[philip_clarke]

The amber lights are nothing to do with the Postage rates, the modules are fully functional as it, so you probably have forgotten to tick "enable this module" which you can do by selecting the module and clicking edit when it's amber.

basically no, it's been under discussion for a long time, I was the original author, someone's taken it over, but so far there is no way of limiting size attributes.

Thanks for your help on the amber light. any news on the above quote, that would be fantastic!

The final decision was that if you have two boxes each 2 centimetres deep and 4 cm square and you lay them side by side, it would be a large letter. If you put one on top of the other then it would be a "packet". There is no way for the shop to know how you would pack an item

My updates to the royal mail modules will no longer be submitted to the zencart site, any new modules will still be open source but will be licensed to the individual and will not be available from the download area.

Yes, that makes sense. I think by changing minimum and maximum order values I can make it work for my site. Great module thanks so much.

Hi Phillip,

I'm hoping you might be able to help me as you have in the past. I tried posting on a general forum but received no response.

For some unknown reason my Zencart installation has stopped allowing any shipping at all. Everytime anyone places an order from anywhere in the world they see this message on page 3 of the order process:

"Sorry, we are not shipping to your region at this time.
Please contact us for alternate arrangements."

I only have 2 types of shipping options:

Big Royal Mail: Royal Mail 1st Class "Packet" ver. 2.3.4
Big Royal Mail: Royal Mail Airmail "Small Packet" ver. 2.3.4

They have both stopped completely. I am not aware of any changes to the admin settings of the site.

Any help or advice would be awesome! I'm running Zen Cart 1.3.8a

Update:
Have installed into a completely fresh install and the same problems occur.

I have left the zencart project because I a) don't agree with them deleting my (defamatory and vulgar) posts, b) the project being financed by jsweb.co.uk who charges £75 to unzip and install the shipping module (and infers that the module is paid for).

There is my email address in the zip files.

Hi

Installed this module previously, but have decided to go with flat rate shipping. Turns out now we have problems with VAT calculation due to a mess up with zones and countries (I think)

Is there a SQL patch to return ZenCart to default countries and zones, i.e. how they were before this module was installed?

Thanks

Restore Database from backup :)

If not then someone will no doubt feel sorry for you eventually in here and provide an .sql for you

i am not that person though sorry.

Total: £14.99

as apposed to
