IMHO, it's a steep learning curve. (-:
I believe you're right that there's table data, and php code. I did a
Developer Tools lookup and found both when I searched for "First-
Class Mail Letter" in php and css files in the admin side. AFAICT,
there's no css code involved.
When the DT search showed the table data insertion code and the
php code, my first thought was:
- Oh Boy!
- Edit the table data
- Change the php code
- Done!
... but I'm not that dumb. Without input from USPS, I don't know if
changing table data will munge up the module's lookup on the USPS
servers. I don't know if there's one text constant for
"First-Class Mail Letter"
that's used for both display on screen and used for lookup on the
USPS servers, or if there's two constants:
USPS_LOOKUP_TEXT_FIRST_CLASS = "First-Class Mail Letter"
lookup value and a
ZENCART_SHIPPING_OPTION_FIRST_CLASS = "First-Class Mail Letter"
display value.
I could experiment with a little used shipping option and reverse
engineer things, but that's not a smart way to work. Especially
since there's no USPS programming on board the thread yet, and
Paying it Forward, I'd rather put the effort first into getting that
USPS connection established for the ZC community, by getting a
USPS code writer to be a liaison to this thread and this list. In
the long run, EVERYBODY would benefit from the effort.
Meanwhile, I'm frustrated because first off, I'm not a programmer,
secondly there's nobody jumping in from USPS yet, and thirdly, I'm
soooo frustrated by it all.
Were I king, well, I'd... nah, I won't go into it. (-;
