Free Shipping Option Issue

[Euonym]

Ajeh,

The original two cloned flat shipping modules:
flatground
flatair
I later used these to create:
flatgrounduk
flatairuk
flatgroundrow
flatairrow
flatairrow6

All show up in the shipping admin panel and are numbered 1-8 in the order they appear above with the freeoption being 7. The first two have not changed names.

Module Directory: /home/content/93/6680893/html/includes/modules/shipping/

All eight shipping modules show up in the admin and in the shipping portion of checkout. It's just that the edit I did on the first two, specifying 'to US' is not appearing in the checkout page. They appear in the admin page..

About the only thing I haven't tried is to remove them, delete from server, upload again and re-install.

Thanks for your help.

That is the part where you lose me ...

What do you mean by "to US" ... that they should only show to the US or that you are missing text?

[Euonym]

Shipping "To US" is shipping the the United States, as opposed to shipping "to UK" or shipping "to ROW" (rest of world).

I guess another thing I could try is to rename the files but it would be easier to uninstall, delete, upload again and install.

Did you build a Zone Definition for the US to add to the shipping module?

If so, what do you have setup on the Details for the Zone?

[Euonym]

No zones. Just the clones.

[Ajeh]

If you want to have shipping modules work for the US and the UK and keep them separate, you should build Zone Definitions for them ...

[Euonym]

The way I read it, zones are going to be problematic. Theoretically, a nice 5x3 table should work, but I don't see that working either in the current system.

[Ajeh]

You have all of these shipping modules:
flatground
flatair

flatgrounduk
flatairuk

flatgroundrow
flatairrow
flatairrow6

Are the first 2 for the US and the next 2 for the UK and the last 3 for the Rest of the World?

If so, then make a Zone Definition for the US and a Zone Definition for the UK and a Zone Definition for the Rest of the World ... then add the Zone Definitions to the shipping modules ...

Now the US can only see the first 2 and the UK can only see the next 2 and the Rest of the World sees the last 3 ...

Zones sounds like a good tool.

How does that work with the freeoptions? In my case, it appears when six or more items are ordered?

How does it work with multiple currencies?

Is there some documentation somewhere? These boards I guess?

How does this solve the issue of my not seeing the recent edit?

[Ajeh]

I would search the Tutorials/FAQs and Wiki and the forums on:
Zones

Zones are designed to "filter" what addresses are able to use various Payment, Shipping and Order Total modules ...

As to why things are not showing in the Catalog that you see in the Admin ... good question ...

If you don't know about Zones, then it sounds like you do not have any Zone filters set yet ...

Do all the shipping modules have the green dot or the yellow dot?

NOTE: if they have the red dot, they are not installed ...

Also check that each one has the Enable set to true ...

I am not quite sure where the reference to currencies fits in here on shipping ... but you might make a separate post on questions about currencies ...

What version Zen Cart are you running?

Clean Install or an Upgrade? If an Upgrade, what did you Upgrade from?

Can you check that both of the configure.php files, on the server, are using the same database:
/includes/configure.php
/admin/includes/configure.php
