[Old] Royal Mail Modules

[philip_clarke]

I did advise above (or below depending on which way you're reading the threads), which variables to change. No other module you've mentioned is like the Royal Mail modules e.g. flat rate wouldn't need a weight.

As I recall I didn't bill for the last time as it lasted way over the alloted time or initial specification, but I'm sure you can find someone in the appropriate forums.

Hi Philip thanks for doing the SQL update for me a few weeks back.

I’m now trying to sort out world shipping zones for my courier using UKZR I have added the extra zone and every thing seems fine and now i am entering the Prices but I need it add a 2.95% fuel surcharge. Do you know how can i make the handling fee work as a percentage?

Thanks

[philip_clarke]

short answer: handling fee doesn't do a percentage so you'd need to change the rates, also ukzr.php does not work unless it is downloaded from here

http://########################.co.uk/versions/ukzr.txt

and renamed to includes/modules/shipping/ukzr.php. They'll be an updated version in the ParcelForce download area in the next coupe of days when the submission is approved,

Version 2.3.5 is now available from here until it is in the add-ins section:

http://########################.co.uk/versions/b...ail_v2.3.5.zip

Bug fixes to the Standard Parcels Modules (no need to re-install just place the files on the server)
Optional Shipping Estimator now updated to 1.3.8 code and re-arranged in the optional folder to make installation easier.

I have just updated the optional shipping estimator, but it is no longer working for me. It will only show me quotes for the UK even if I select another country?
If I replace with the previous version of the estimator it works fine, any ideas?

Also with either version of your estimator, if i no shipping is available I get this message:

TITLE_NO_SHIPPING_AVAILABLE TEXT_NO_SHIPPING_AVAILABLE

Is this correct as when looking at your files it seems I should be getting a more user friendy message?

[philip_clarke]

The constant should be defined in includes/languages/languages/english/shopping_cart.php at the bottom of the php, I've checked the zip file and it should be in there but I'll confirm if I've cocked up the instructions as to where to put it. Regarding the english thing I must investigate this further, and will get back as soon as I've set up a clean test site as it was working when I sent it outbut the test site I've been using has had a lot of modifications over the last couple of months.

There may be an issue in that originally there were 3 files, and if you previoulsy has it installed, then file number 3 from the old version may be causing a problem which is just what I can think of, off the top of my head. Back soon
Philip.

I have confirmed that the problem with the shipping_estimator where it does not display non-gb countries is caused by having an old shipping_estimator.php installed from an previous version of the Big RoyalMail modules. You need to replace includes/modules/shipping_estimator.php with the one from whichever version of zencart you are currently using e.g. 1.3.8 when I install the old optional estimator and then upgrade it to the new, the same error, so I should have made it clearer in my instructions about the need to revert, sorry.

With regards to the error message not being displayed, I am just working my way through that now.

Philip.

Yes that fixed the quote problem, the TITLE_NO_SHIPPING_AVAILABLE, TEXT_NO_SHIPPING_AVAILABLE

problem still remains tho.

Thanks Philip

Okay I made a mistake up there stating that shopping_cart.php should be in includes/languages/languages/english/shopping_cart.php it should be in includes/languages/english/shopping_cart.php like it is in the zipped up 2.3.5 version of the module, attached is what is displayed when it is in the correct place.
