USPS Shipping Module Error

[Christian_Wagner]

You might look over this thread:
http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.p...ia-Mail-Option

and see if it gives you some idea of how to do this ...

If you really start to cry and pull your hair out, I might casually try to do a quick review on how to adapt that to the current USPS 3-27-2013 shipping module when I get some time ...

Could I just possibly PM you?

Try this ...

Customize the USPS shipping module:
/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

and add the code in Red around line 305 or so:

      if (isset($uspsQuote['Package']['Postage']) && zen_not_null($uspsQuote['Package']['Postage'])) {
        $PackageSize = 1;
      } else {
        $PackageSize = ($this->usps_countries == 'US') ? sizeof($uspsQuote['Package']) : sizeof($uspsQuote['Package']['Service']);
      }

// bof: test for media mail eligible
            $cart_count = $_SESSION['cart']->count_contents();
            $chk_products = 0;
            $media_valid = true;
      $chk_products += $_SESSION['cart']->in_cart_check('master_categories_id','4');
      $chk_products += $_SESSION['cart']->in_cart_check('master_categories_id','5');
      $chk_products += $_SESSION['cart']->in_cart_check('master_categories_id','6');
      $chk_products += $_SESSION['cart']->in_cart_check('master_categories_id','7');
      if ($cart_count == $chk_products) {
        $media_valid = true;
      } else {
        $media_valid = false;
      }
// eof: test for media mail eligible

      for ($i=0; $i<$PackageSize; $i++)

and then add the code in Red 418 or so:

        $title .= $this->transittime[$type];

// bof: test for media mail eligible
        if ((($method == '' && in_array($type, $types)) || $method == $type) && $usps_shipping_weight <= $maxweight && $usps_shipping_weight > $minweight) {
//echo 'USPS $type: ' . $type . '<br>';
          if ($type == 'Media MailRM' && !$media_valid) {
            // skip media
          } else {
          $methods[] = array('id' => $type,
                             'title' => $title,
                             'cost' => $cost,
                            );
          }
// eof: test for media mail eligible

        }
      }

      if (sizeof($methods) == 0) return false;

see if that shows Media only when Products are in categories 4, 5, 6 and 7 ...
