ZipShip - Support Thread

weif, thanks for the report; I've logged this (as well as the other issue you reported) in the plugin's GitHub repository.

The solution you posted might work for US-based zipcodes, but not all zipcodes are the same format. I'll need to consider the best approach for full resolution of the issue.

Thank you. Glad to be of assistance.

The solution you posted might work for US-based zipcodes, but not all zipcodes are the same format. I'll need to consider the best approach for full resolution of the issue.

I understand that different regions and countries have their postal codes configured and formatted differently. But I think this will work in my case, as the florist in question only delivers to about 8 US ZIP codes.

Overall, though, this is an awesome module and has relieved a lot of frustration for at least one flower shop.

I've just submitted v2.0.1 to the Zen Cart plugins for review. That version contains changes for:

• Changing the number of ZipShip "zones" doesn't clean up previous settings.
• US Zip Codes entered in 99999-9999 format don't result in a match.
• Remove unused configuration setting (Skip Zipcodes)
• Add an overall zone setting for the shipping method.

Please note that this version makes use of the store's Configuration->Minimum Values->Post Codes value in its processing, truncating an order's ship-to zipcode to that minimum length prior to look-up in the ZipShip configuration. Any zip/post code entered is also uppercased prior to lookup; potentially making this plugin more useful on stores where the postcode is an alphanumeric value rather than simply numeric.

The plugin release is currently available on the plugin's GitHub repository: https://github.com/lat9/zipship/releases/tag/v2.0.1

v2.0.1 is now available for download from the Zen Cart Plugins.

Let's take this discussion to ZipShip's support thread: https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread....Support-Thread

If you would include a screenshot of your ZipShip configuration screen over there, it will help me help you!

Ok, here are my ZipShip configs:

This is what I get at checkout when using it. The zipcode is correct:

It doesn't seem to be picking up the zip code entered in the shopping cart.

I figured out what the problem was. I had to go into Minimum Values and set the post code length to 5. It was 4. Now the mod is working just fine.

@wtashby, thanks for the information and the update! I'm happy that ZipShip is now working for you!

Has anyone get this to work for Canadian postal codes which are alpha numeric.

Has anyone get this to work for Canadian postal codes which are alpha numeric.

What version of ZipShip and what version of Zen Cart?

What's "not working"?

Would you also post the settings applied to ZipShip for review?
