USPS Shipping Module by MarcoB - RateV4, IntlRateV2 - Support Thread

[scottj]

Hi Marco,
First I want to THANK YOU for making this module. It's made life so much easier over the "stock" version.

I'm using your ver1.21 dated Aug 29th and trying to use volume filtering. I ran the sql script, activated volume filtering in the module and added the following weight to my test item: 39.40000129920 (Yes, this is a large sucker... dimensions 16x28x29... length + girth = 117")

I only offer 4 USPS services (Priority & Express to non-ContUS) and (Priority & Express International to all non-US countries). No flat rate boxes. I'm still getting quotes for my test item when there's no way USPS will ship it! What am I missing?

THANK YOU again.
Kind Regards,
Scott

Also, I manually added max volumes to the 4 methods in the module file arrays and I still get quotes. Hmmm....

Hi Scott,

You are welcome!

Since you have enabled volume based filtering you can do some tweaking in the module to have it filter the shipping services appropriately.

There are 2 large arrays in the module close to the beginning.

Edit the volume values at line 121, 139, 220, 226.

If the volume values are set to 0 the module will not filter those services based on volume. I didn't set values for those services since the dimensions can vary.

Maybe I should set sane maximum values to all those services.

Hope now that it does what you need it to do.

I tried this module on 3 websites. One is a new installed zencart website. Only the international shipping works. There's no domestic quote at all. Something wrong?

Hi colyield,
You need to give more info about how you configured the module and which version you are using.

My best guess is that you haven't enabled the domestic services or you have the filtering option enabled in a way that everything is filtered.

Getting the following DEBUG error in my cache folder, "[10-Oct-2011 21:13:48] PHP Warning: usort() [<a href='function.usort'>function.usort</a>]: Invalid comparison function in /includes/modules/shipping/usps.php on line 481"

You might need to uninstall/install to get all the required configuration keys. There is a sort function in the latest version and without the config setting you will get that error.

Remember to keep all your settings!
