I have never got it working. in previous edition v154 and beyond, we did flat rate. I would like to get this working. I read the other versions post but it does not work for v157c with K11. If someone got it to work in previous versions of USPS maybe they can let you know. The code I read before used a master category number for Media (mine is Master_id = 5) for loop but that did not work on my K11.Quote:

First Class does not show up as an option even on the lightest shipments, and I'm losing orders based on only priority mail and express mail showing up. I've gone back and checked the USPS module, and really didn't change anything except the handling fee. I don't offer flat rate for anything, so the only options my customers have are First Class Package Service, Priority Mail, Express Mail, First Class International Package, Priority Mail International, and Express Mail International. Here are my settings in the USPS module:

Never mind. It only had the first class - retail option selected; once I checked the first class - comm option, they started showing up again.
so......I have an item that is bulky...like 30" x 24" x 24"......around 30 pounds......BUT zencart chooses a large flat rate USPS box.......my item would never fit in a USPS LFR box!
how do I fix this problem?
The USPS shipping module works on weights alone, so that 30-pound item will (from a weight standpoing) 'fit' in the large flat-rate box, which is limited to 70 pounds.Quote:

MEDfr from 3.01-7 pounds
Then juggle database weights of products to make them fit to the boxes desired. Not perfect but works for us.
i saw something in this forum about the Unsecure HTTP Endpoint Retirement, and there being a patch for that. I can't find it now, but when I got the USPS notice, I just searched the files for all the places where http://production.shippingapis dot com was mentioned, and changed them to https. Is anything needed besides that? I have the 2017 version of the file, if that makes any difference.

I've just submitted USPS version 2021-05-05 K11a for the Zen Cart moderators' review and will post back here when it's available for download.
This release contains changes associated with the following GitHub issues:
#15: Correcting minimum International dimensions so that International Small F/R Box can be quoted.
#16: Add notification to enable site-specific customizations for configured shipping methods.
Now available for download: https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1292Quote:
