ZipShip - Support Thread

I am using zipship (zone 1) for Store Pickup by inserting zipcode that are allowed to use Store Pickup.

I also set zone 2 to 00000 for all 5 digits zip codes (I believe that is what I read) and that does not work. I also noticed that if I change Shipping Zone from none to the zone code choice the zipship module does not work at all. Change it back and Store Pickup works.

When I using Flat Rate module it will work if Shipping Zone is set to none. If you change it to the choice available it will not work.

This indicates to me that Locations/Taxes is not set up correctly. It is still set as it was before upgrading to 1.5.5e

Found that for the shipping zone problem reason not working correctly is you must have details setup for any state you want to limit/allow.

Still have problem with zipship when wanting all 5 digits zipcodes entering 00000. That still does not work or was that feature removed in an update?

Instead of entering a real zipcode I entered 00000 and no results. Next, I entered a comma after the 5 "0" like 00000,02101. I got expected results on 02101 when testing, nothing on any other 5 digit zipcodes.

How does zipship know 00000 means every USA state and territory?
Would this not have to setup somehow in Admin>Locations.....?
admin>modules>zipship>edit For example it shows:
"Zone 2 Zip Codes
Comma separated list of five character zip codes that are part of Zone 2.
Set as 00000 to indicate all five character zip codes that are not specifically defined."


Then what is the 00000 used for and is it used?

Ah, that "commentary" was present in the original plugin so I don't know what the original author intended. Based on the code, I'm guessing that he had a list of zipcodes that were being used and it was easy to "remove" an unwanted code by setting the value to 0.

There is nothing in the code (other than that configuration comment) that special-cases the 00000 case.

I've just submitted ZipShip v3.0.0 to the Zen Cart moderators for review. Once approved, it can be downloaded here: https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=312.

This release contains changes associated with the following GitHub issues and has been validated on Zen Cart 1.5.4 through 1.5.6c:

#7: Enable different title/description for each ZipShip 'zone' defined.
#8: Restructuring to prevent various PHP notices and warnings from being generated. Remove unused "Tax Basis" setting.
#9: A zipcode that matched a zipcode list, but failed to match the associated criteria could provide free shipping for the order.
#10: "Resurrect" the default 00000 zipcode 'catch-all'.

Is there any upgrade instructions?
On installing this it didn't work - not getting any rates on checkout.
Put original files back and it works again

I'm upgrading to 1.5.6c - so that's whats installed on test server.

Thanks for the report, @royaldave. You can correct that processing by editing /includes/modules/shipping/zipship.php, finding:

Code:

---

    protected function getQuote($dest_zone)
    {

---

and adding the highlighted line:

Code:

---

    protected function getQuote($dest_zone)
    {
        global $shipping_weight, $shipping_num_boxes, $item_count;

---

I'll get this issue and the associated correction noted on the plugin's GitHub repository for a follow-on update. Note that this update affects configurations that were/are using the "Weight" calculation method.

I'll be submitting v3.0.1 of ZipShip to the plugin moderators for review shortly and will report back here when it's available for download.
