Canada Post Module

[Briank58]

Then the module needs to be re-written to account for free shipping like the other shipping modules are that come with Zen Cart ...

Got your coder hat on?

With all respect Ajeh. I appreciate your assistance. But ...
I shouldn't need my coder hat on!

The Canada Post module is flawed.

You yourself state that it should "account for free shipping like the other shipping modules are that come with Zen Cart".

In other words ... "the module doesn't work like it should!

in the /includes/modules/shipping/canadapost.php file, around line 142, you have this:

 $this->_addItem ($products_array[$i][quantity], $products_array[$i][final_price], $products_array[$i][weight], $products_array[$i][length], $products_array[$i][width], $products_array[$i][height], 'online_product', $products_array[$i][ready_to_ship], $products_array[$i][dim_type], $products_array[$i][weight_type]);

Insert a new line directly above that one, saying this:

if (zen_get_product_is_always_free_shipping($products_array[$i]['id'] == false)

Then do a test to see if you're getting the right quotes back.
In theory this should skip sending any details to Canada Post for any products receiving free shipping.
Thus, while *you* will have to pay for the shipping on those "free" items, at least the customer will not be charged for them.
