Apologies Koi Koi, I didn't get an email alert that you'd posted, and I've been busy with #REALWORLD type things...:)
Eire should indeed only be offered Royal Mail EU rates rather than UK...
OK,
Then lets work through the options -
Firstly, I forgot to mention, the amber/green indicator has nothing to do with anything to do with your problem. It can safely be ignored.
Have you...
koi koi,
That message translates to your ZC installation saying either 'I have no idea where your store is', or I have no idea where you, as a customer, are'.
Have you entered the required...
Hi Brinley,
Sorry about the delay in replying, the week has been devoured by locusts and #Realworld.
As noted in the 'update_notes' that I think I included with the release, the original Basic...
Well spotted there Brinley, it is indeed a misplaced bracket. There was also some legacy insurance code floating round in the module from previous RM tinkering which I've removed.
The attached zip...
Hi Welshop,
As the module name implies, the add-on was created to provide a Basic module for UK shipping using the 'Over the Counter' Royal Mail rates, so that people could hopefully get a quick...
With current options, one way to handle the problem is to review all your products and set some 'cutoff points ' in the shipping options. e.g. If you have a subset of very small products like flash...
And yes, the small/medium thing is a nightmare. Do you think I should add some extra text about dimensions to the descriptions? Unfortunately it still wont prevent anyone selecting the wrong one, and...
Thanks for that Rizla, I'll update the files for and submit when I'm reasonably happy that we've found 'all' the obvious bugs.
Seems my typing finger slipped when I was changing that one...
...
I have uploaded a first pass of the modules updated with the 2013 changes to the Plugins section. SHould be available in a few days.
Please note that it is NOT final as there are still some grey...
Hi Rizla, Yes I've donwloaded the shiny brochures from RM and I'm working through the changes (my annual penance...) :)
You're not missing a setting, just that you're not logged in to the store, so you're window shopping. Log in as a customer, add to cart and estimate shipping, or go to checkout, and the restrictions...
KenshiroU,
You are correct that the Checkout Shipping page (step 1) generates it's displayed text from the module constants that you listed, and indeed all the information diplayed is...
Glad that's sorted out, the zones can be very confusing. The Big Royal Mail add-on round about version 2.1 or so included an optional UK zones SQL script that added most UK counties and countries in...
If I understood you correctly, you're saying that when you scroll through the countries in the ZC admin section you get an entry for the Isle of Man and it has an ISO country code of IM/IMN?
I seem...
Yup it's using 'not in uK, but Rest of World' type rates. i.e Airmail and International Signed For.
Have you added any Zones to the Basic Zen Cart install? If not, the IOM is probably being caught...
Isle of Man is usually UK for Royal Mail, what Royal Mail Service is being used, what weight is being reported, and what price is being quoted?
Rgds,
Chuck
CS,
You are correct in your assumption that that is where the message is generated, but that is actually the inverse of your request. What you should be looking for, is where invalid shipping is...
Where are you trying to enter these codes, and why?
The current version of PF48B in version 2.2.3 already defines the Benelux countries as Zone 4 and France is in Zone 5.
That aside, any list...
Some changes in Royal Mail delivery practices from next week -
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/09/27/post_office_deliveries/
Glad you got it sorted out to work the way you wanted it. It's always a toss up whether to achieve something by way of code/calculation or in the display process. MVC and all that I suppose.
...
Meet me halfway, register as a customer on your site and log-in. :)
The Zen Cart core code considers insurance separate to shipping, so if you are not logged in to an account with a defined 'Ship...
And let me just add that if you want to change this, simply edit the text in the appropriate text in the languages files, found in the
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping
folder, for...
Meltdown, the arbitrarily decided default across the modules is to display insurance where it applies. i.e. the inverse of what you have described. Where there is no insurance e.g. straight first or...
Glad you're sorted out, and thanks for the heads-up on the missing commas. They arise in the merging of the price strings from the spreadsheet, and they probably haven't been noticed because few...
Hi Enfield, the prices used in the modules are all the 'small parcel' and similar prices, which, as far as I'm aware, are the same as the printed matter prices for airmail and surface? (With the...
Thanks schoolboy, trust you're well and enjoying the summer? :)
Candice,
If you are referring to my comments about the file permissions and setting them, don't worry about that too much. ...
Hi Candice, we all felt that way when we first started setting up our sites, so hopefully we can set some shipping working on your site.
The modules all add Insurance etc automatically where it is...
Hi Rizla,
Well spotted, It's just a copy of the shipping_rmuk.jpg icon, renamed to shipping_rmsurface.jpg in the images/icons/ folder.
It's defined in /includes/modules/shipping/rmsurface.php...
Errors found in the pricing in 2 of the updated modules - Airmail and Airsure.
Airsure was 1 price, Airmail several from 0.5kg upwards.
Amended copies in the attached zip file.
Thanks to Kim for...
No idea I'm afraid, it was just a suggestion as to what might be possible for multiple Couriers. There's also this module in the downloads section
...
Don't feel bad, it's not thick at all. I'd say just about every person who has ever installed Zen Cart has made that mistake. Just means you'll never make it again.
I've done it at least three...
SP, Firstly I'd caution that the 1st Class rates are the Packet rates, NOT the letter rates. i.e. They START at 750grams.
If you will mainly be shipping letter size and weight items, you should edit...
I seem to remember that the Big Royal Mail modules used to have a Courier module, but I've never used it, and have no idea how well it works.
If you want a range of Couriers, I suspect your best bet...
All of the stuff you're describing is pretty much the standard operation of the modules.
Firstly, go to Admin-Configuration-Shipping/Packaging, and set the Shipping Estimator Display Setting to...
It is very difficult to offer any advice, as you give no details of the order for which you are expecting to be offered first and standard parcel shipping, particularly, the weight and cost.
By...
You're much more likely to get a response if you post in the support thread for the module, here
http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.php?186377-Royal-Mail-Basic-UK-Shipping-Modules
It is very...
Apologies Meltdown, I didn't get an email alert about your query. If I could answer your query in 2 parts,
Firstly, the modules as supplied are configured for the options offered by Royal Mail and...
Not at all, I'm glad it was that simple. Unfortunately the exclusions, exceptions, waivers, per country changes and so on are an absolute minefield with RM and Parcelforce.
I've simply picked the...
Err, near as I can see, it works perfectly, logged in or not? I've just selected an item and added to cart, and checked the shiiping estimator changing between UK, Belgium and United States. Then I...
Whoops, ignore the last attachment, it's got a 'dangling' parenthesis/bracket. Use this one instead. Sorry about that
toyseller, I'm clutching at straws at this stage, but it's not impossible that you have a common config that is importantly different to my test setups, and is triggering the problem.
I've attached...
toyseller, if the others are displaying correctly, it means that there is nothing strange about you template setup, so other than a mis-copy of the files to the server, of file corruption, the only...
Just a quick Heads-up that there is a release candidate of the 2012 pricing available in the Plugins/Downloads section. Please report any funnies/errors you spot while using it.
Changes include...
Hi Meltdown, the 'constant' error is a quirk of the PHP version running on the server. I tried various fixes, but haven't yet found anything that 'fits all'. Easiest is simply not to copy the...
Indeed, that's the general idea, I was just getting it to the stage where it will actually install, and not kill the shop :)
It's been uploaded to the addons/plugins section here, and will...
I'm debugging at the moment, should have a testable release candidate over the weekend.
toyseller, the shipping routines only do calculations - i.e. the main Zen Cart code calls the installed shipping modules and in effect says - 'This address, this weight; give me a price if you can.'...
Well spotted schoolboy, I've never had a free shipping product ever, so tis unlikely I'd have found that. I'll incorporate in the update.
Probably because it's not the 30th April yet? :)
Yes, I'm aware of that one toyseller, they're splitting the 'Rest of World' into 2 zones. That one is addressable as the new rates are available,...
