I've done as Chuck said and it started to give me shipping rates... but when I go to check out the price for the shipping is way over what it should be.Quote:

Go into admin->configuration->shipping/packaging
You'll see a setting there for '3.0' - set that to zero. It's adding an extra 3.0 units to your weight.
Philip - will do. (BTW, did you mean 'shipping.php'? - that seems to be in includes/classes, I don't think your mod has changed that file, has it?)
Dan - to be more precise:
Change:
Package Tare Small to Medium - added percentage:weight 0:3
to:
Package Tare Small to Medium - added percentage:weight 0:0
... long time since I looked at that page :smile:
And the Pixxi strikes once more ! he always answers that one ! it's earlier on in the thread too.Quote:

Now all I have to do is work out why the Royal mail icons are clipping the center col... might edit so it dont have such a long string of text.

But before I go on... I'll post this question in the correct forum.
Thanks for you help again Guys!

Generally that is a problem with the style sheet layout or the main box being based around a percentage of your screen, you can either fix the css or put a <br /> in the text which is what I ended up doing in one section of my personal site. You could also just omit Royal Mail or something. Edit the files under /languages/ english for whichever ones are too big, and then remember when you upgrade, to fix them again, Oh and please upgrade to the next version if you are using the optional shipping.php, it's quite important.Quote:

c) See if you can get the text to break onto the next line (not sure how that would look).
(Edit: told you Philip would explain it better ... :smile: )
eh ? lol sorry lost me there :huh:Quote:

there's a file in big_royalmail_v2.xxx/ optional called shipping.php if you are using it please upgrade because I made a boo boo and left in some code that's pointing towards my own website !Quote:
