By enabling this function the 'normal' zencart parcel splitting, weight settings/limits, tare, etc will be used to create the packages rather than the ozpost supplied code.

Hi Rod

The only way I have managed to split parcels to suit is to disable Ozpost for a certain categories (such as for oversized, overweight or high value products, eg art) and then arrange to manually provide a shipping quote.

I have often thought it useful to provide a checkbox flag on the Admin product input page that would disable/enable all shipping mods (except maybe the quote option) for products so flagged, but getting this to work with all shipping modules is a challenge for me.

Currently I use an IF statement in each shipping mod to disable that mod and force a special quote, however, with every new release of a shipping mod, the IF statement must be reinserted.

It would be super convenient if a basic version of such an IF statement was pre-written into Ozpost, whereby admins only had to insert their special category(s) or product(s) to disable the mod.

If such an IF statement already exists in Ozpost, can you please tell where it is, as I have yet to find it.

Nevertheless thanks for a great mod.

Cheers
