Rick, are you referencing the Domestic and International Minimum Length x Height x Width settings?

Cindy,

Yes, I am. Domestic already shows the actual dimensions of a SMFR box in the min settings.

Cindy,

Yes, I am. Domestic already shows the actual dimensions of a SMFR box in the min settings.

Those default international dimensions have been incorrect for a very, very long time. I've validated that changing the International Minimum Dimensions to match the Domestic Minimum Dimensions does, in fact, result in an International F/R Small Box to be quoted.

Thanks a bunch for the information and the correction! I'll get a GitHub issue created for tracking and get those default dimensions corrected.

You don't know how hard it was to force those brain cells to trigger from a session with Linda (ajeh) years ago and once changed in my setup, the settings tend to never be looked at again.

I think at that time, the USPS API actually had the 9.5x1.0x5.5 inch dimensions in the docs.

I am new to Zencart, and working with installing the USPS mode, I think I got it install right.
- /includes/modules/shipping/usps.php
- /includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/usps.php
- /includes/templates/template_default/images/icons/shipping_usps.gif

have it in test mode. I added a couple things to my cart, but when I go to my cart. Nothing is showing for USPS. It's like the Mod is not there or not working HELP

Any help would be appreciated.

Is that the current (2020-09-24 K11) version of USPS? Which version of Zen Cart is in use?

It would also help if you could post a screenshot of the current settings (obfuscating your USPS ID).

[Coastalpond]

Yes current version k11 and 1.5.7 of zencart
