I'm currently upgrading to Zen Cart version 1.3.8a.
Does anyone know if this module works with that version of Zen Cart, or am I in virgin territory? :unsure:
Mod installed on my development 1.3.8a, and appears to be functioning at a basic level. The mod is truly awesome. This one really is a work of art.
I'm starting with 'simple' UK shipping first, then I'll move on to international shipping (including 'Printed Paper'). To familiarise myself with the mod I have enabled the two options I would most frequently need:
This is a big and very flexible mod so it's probably best to take it one step at a time. Here's my first problem.
- Royal Mail 2nd Class "Large Letter", and
- Royal Mail 2nd Class "Packet"
I sell a range of items that vary (per item) from a large letter (e.g. a Ladybird book or small paperback), to a packet (e.g. a jigsaw or hardback book). It's safe enough, I think, to assume that if the customer is buying more than one item the resulting post will be a packet. This is not necessarily true, as two Ladybirds are still a large letter. :blink: Parcels are rare so I'll ignore those options for now.
I see no way to prevent customers from choosing inappropriate options. If I add an item to my cart which I know will be a packet I still see large letter in my shipping options. Obviously, the customer will choose the cheapest even if he/she knows darn well his/her purchase just ain't ever gonna fit through that itty-bitty slot! :no:
How do I prevent these inappropriate options from being displayed?
If you want to have a play the site is at http://138a.swiftbooks.co.uk
Note: Although I've copied all of my live data into the 138a subdomain I haven't installed the book mod yet. Only the 'out of the box' products work so far (the jigsaws and a few other odds and ends). For all the book type products you'll be redirected to the site map.
This could be a show-stopper that makes me rethink my shipping and handling policy - part of which is not forcing purchasers of small items to subsidise the shipping for purchasers of large ones.
I have the same problem. The customer can purchase 10 items which will altogether qualify for a large letter. And then just a single one which I know is a packet.
Any help would be very appreciated.
I've not got anywhere with this yet, but have started recording the product dimensions (length x width x thickness) as I know these, or something similar, will have to be part of the solution.Quote:

We have installed this module to our new site which appears brilliant.
My god we used to use actinic with our other site www.freeyourmobile.biz this Zencart is a lot more flexible.
When in the cart the shipping option shows up as MODULE_SHIPPING_SPECIALDELIVERY_TEXT_TITLE
How would we change the description to just Special Delivery for example.
I have tried editing the PHP file but this just disabled the option.
Thanks in advance
Which PHP file have you tried editing?Quote:

I suggest using the Developers Tool Kit to find another string from this mod that is working, then add the missing one.
Ok, yeah. What do I do to get this to work?
I've either missed out something rather large, but any module I turn on just doesn't work. The tare is 0:0, I've changed the minimum/maximum values and nothing shows up.
I turn on that Invalid Shipping option and I just get "The shipping rate cannot be determined at this time".
What have I missed out here?
Thanks, this will be just what we need once it works.

Cancel that, it was where it was being hosted. I had it on a localhost, so problems were being caused.
