USPS Shipping method display?

I can't find any record of what USPS method the customer chose on invoices, packing slips, in Super Orders. It just says "United States Postal Service."

My client is back calculating the amount added to the order and, I think, re-inputting the weight at USPS.com to determine if the purchaser chose Priority or Media mail (if a US domestic order). Are we both missing some obvious place where we'd see, say, "PRIORITY" "FIRST CLASS" or "MEDIA" shown?

Thanks in advance,

Rand

Re: USPS Shipping method display?

Sounds like you have a customized module ...

There are switches for weight and days but I don't recall anything other than custom coding for turning off the method ... :unsure:

Can you look on the server and view the usps.php file for the ID on that file?

Re: USPS Shipping method display?

The date stamp looks right for the Nov 2007 updated module ... I don't know if you had customizations to your site, however as I am not seeing a simple way to remove the method without customizing the code ...

Have you tried to compare the file:
/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

with a clean version of the file?

Re: USPS Shipping method display?

Beyond Compare reports a match on usps.php from server and from USPS_NOV192007.zip.

I attached a gif (which I've never done here before, hope it works) of at least one place where I imagine "Priority", "Media" or "First Class" would be displayed. It sounds like it's expected on your end, too, rather than a new request, right?

Again, TIA!

Re: USPS Shipping method display?

Test an Order via Check/Money Order ... do you see the method of USPS that is selected?

What version of Zen Cart?

Clean Install or an Upgrade?

Re: USPS Shipping method display?

Check/Money Order displays same as in attached GIF.

Additional notes: Super Packing Slip does not show anything next to Shipping Method. Invoice or Order Details offer no Shipping information.

Re: USPS Shipping method display?

Problem solved changing

$shipping_method

to something like

$order->info['shipping_method']

or

$oInfo->shipping_method

in super_orders.php, super_packingslip.php and super_invoice.php

Guidance found on page 78 of the Super Orders support thread
