[Old] Royal Mail Modules

Afternoon,

Try removing and installing rm1stlargelettersf for some reason the module does not seem to have installed some constants in the database. I'm just checking the release candidate, but can't see anything that would have caused this, was there any loss of database connnection when you installed during admin ?

You could also do a SQL query for me

SELECT configuration_key from zen_configuration where configuration_key like 'MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF%';

and tell me then results.

Thank you

Philip.

You should get a result like this if it's correctly installed,

+---------------------------------------------------------+
| configuration_key |
+---------------------------------------------------------+
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_HIDE_SHIPPING_ERRORS |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_MAX_ORDERVALUE |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_MIN_ORDERVALUE |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_SORT_ORDER |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_STATUS |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_TAX_CLASS |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_ZONES_COST0_1 |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_ZONES_COST1_1 |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_ZONES_COST2_1 |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_ZONES_COST3_1 |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_ZONES_COUNTRIES_1 |
| MODULE_SHIPPING_RM1STLARGELETTERSF_ZONES_HANDLING_1 |
+---------------------------------------------------------+

which is what I've done to get a total uninstall and then install.

Thanks so much for the advice - I uninstalled the file you mentioned and everything showed up correctly again but once I re-installed the file - it went all funny one me so I have left it uninstalled.

I am unsure what you mean with the SQL part, do I need to do this in admin or via the ftp site? Sorry to sound totally stupid but I am new to most of this at the moment I have my head stuck in a few different books each day so hopefully I will get it eventually lol

Thanks again for your advice

Kind Regards

Steve

Okay here is my copy of a zipped up rm1stlargelettersf.php which you should replace the copy that you have on your system with. That error on the top of the page tells you which file it is to replace, .../home/ez/public..... so unzip this, copy it over the top of your existing file and then try it again.

The SQL goes into phpMyAdmin or a mysql client, but we'll deal with this first, it may be that you have a corrupted or older file on your your system from when I've been releasing the beta versions, so we'll discount that possibility first.

Thanks so much for that - it seems to have worked - the only problem with it now is that part of it goes under the right hand category the rest stay inline with the page though - could it be a css issue?

thanks in advance and kind regards

could you show me a picture, and any idea which version of zencart you are running.

Yep I am running zen-cart 1.3.5 - here's a picture mate and thanks again :)

Kind regards

Simplest way to sort that out is to edit the file /includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/rm1stlargelettersf.php and just cut down the title a bit or put in a <br />, not seen that before as it wraps on my screen on my test server, but I'm not doing anything with the stylesheets.

Glad things are going better, I'm still unsure what exactly has occurred since the file I sent you should be in a beta, so maybe a little file corruption or something, we'll wait and see, I intend to submit the "full version" on Monday, with no mods from the beta, except some instructions and removing a lot of copyright and comments and putting them in a single file, since I'm sick of editing each file, it is however Diwali this weekend and my wife may well kill me if I spend any more time on the computer.

Sorry I didn't reply before - really hope you had a lovely Diwali and thanks again for your help - I think that I have it working now lol.

Kind regards

Hi,

I've been testing these modules out and they are great :D

However, I'm selling some free shipping items for the UK, which I will charge postage for if someone from overseas order them.

As an example, the weight is 0.4kg. Free shipping in the UK works fine.

When the buyer is overseas, the "Royal Mail International Signed For® "Small Packet" Extra insurance " comes back with weight of 0.015kg, which is the packing weight calculated from tare weight of 0.0kg.

So for free shipping, UK weight of 0 is fine.
US weight of 0kg not fine.

I've set free shipping to zone UKVAT because it look like the best thing to do.

Is there some setting somewhere I'm missing?

Many thanks
Alan
