is a corrected versions and it should be renamed ukzr.php and the used to overwrite includes/modules/shipping/ukzr.php you will not need to remove and re-install it, the shipping, weights and number of boxes should now appear. Let me know how you get on, then it'll be put into the next package
thank you

Is this file still available for download as I cannot access it?

Cheers

I have just submitted version 2.3.6 and removed the above as 2.3.6 works better. It should be available from the download area shortly, meanwhile here is a temporary link:

http://########################.co.uk/versions/P...rce_v2.3.6.zip

This release improves UKZR and makes the optional shipping estimator templates up to date and more accurate. Also it corrects a few errors in the county update SQL BUT this is not to be used on a existing shop it will duplicate counties and countries and can remove addresses from existing customers (btw I can fix it if anyone does this, but it is time consuming).

Hi,

Just installed latest Parcelforce. Which part wil work for UK zones 1,2 and 3?

I also found that Norway is coming up as zone 12 when it should be zone 9. can any one please hep?

Dave Haslam

Found the UK zones. but still need help with the Norway zone. Thanks.

Dave

You'll need to know which service you are altering, then you need to go into zone definitions and add Norway to zone 9 "rest of europe" I believe. This appears to be a bug left over from the Royal Mail mucking around with Norway 2 years ago, at one point they had it as an Airsure destination, then removed it outside of "europe" and then re-put it back in, I am guessing that I didn't put it back in when they did the second time.

I'll get an updated parcelforce module done this weekend and see if I can automatically slot it into the correct places, for the time being you'll have to manually do it for each service you are offering.

Thank you
Philip.

Thanks Philip,

I think im just about there now. Just need to work out the wieghts to read kg rather than lb in the product listing

Thanks

That's edited in includes/languages/english/SOMETHING OR OTHER it is something like TEXT_SHIPPING_WEIGHT and is just editing a text file.

Thank you

I installed the optional counties sql file in the Parcelforce folder and i already had UK_Counties installed and as i said in the other thread i did delete the duplicate entries but major headache time.

I get this error when trying to sign up for an account.

Is your first name correct? Our system requires a minimum of 2 characters. Please try again.
Error Your State must contain a minimum of 2 characters.
Error Your Post/ZIP Code must contain a minimum of 4 characters.
Error You must select a country from the Countries pull down menu.

Everything is correct but the error keeps showing.

How do i fix this.

Must i delete every UK entry and start again ?

In configuration > My Store, you had better check that your store is in the correct country and state first of all.

In the customer details section of configuration you can also choose not to display the "state" as a pull down, but you are now firmly into using some sql or phpmyadmin to clear up your zones because it is probable that when deleting the duplicate counties, some may be linked to one country id while others may be linked to a second. It would almost certainly be better at this stage to remove all UK sub zone using database manipulation and then redo the SQL. I do not recommend deleting all the zones otherwise you are going to need to do a total re-installation as it will wipe out the other countires in the world.

I have gone into MyPHPAdmin and deleted all the UK zones.

The rest of the world including the UK is fine and i just deleted the UK county zones.

Now here's a problem when i tried running the SQL script again it said the statements were processed but nothing is actually there.

Now heres an interesting thing. I have two other templates installed and i can sign up to an account using them but when i switch to the one i want to use it comes up with that error message.

That suggests that maybe it's something else causing the problem. Maybe the updated fast and easy checkout which i installed late last night.

I'll check that thread out and try and undo some steps did today for this template only.
