USPS Shipping Module [Support Thread]

[njcyx]

Here is an update. I did some tests and I even put my k11e files back to my testing site. EMS intl quote still doesn't showup. Not sure what happens here. My k11e files are working fine in my live site (showing the proper EMS intl quote)

Hi @dbltoe, thanks for your suggestions. I tested the quote by a 0.64lb package, so it should not trigger the max limit. I also checked the page Shipping/Packaging between my test site and live site. They are the same.

One more update. I just completely "destroyed" and rebuilt my testing site then updated usps to the latest k11h. Yes, I can get the EMS intl quote properly.

Not sure what happens here though...

I'm pretty sure (still investigating) that I foobar'd the auto-update when removing the regional-mail settings.

Hi @lat9, thanks for your reply.

One more update. I checked the admin settings after I updated my working k11e to k11h (which EMS intl quote is working fine), EMS intl option is unchecked. But its value is strange. Min is "Priority Mail Express InternationalRM". Max is "0". I set both back to the default (min is 0, max is 66) and I checked EMS intl option. EMS intl quote is missing/disappeared.

Then I unchecked the EMS intl option, set both Min and Max back to the strange values above, the quote shows up.

There's a ALTER TABLE in the check() method that's going to cause problems for Advanced Shipper users. Would suggest removing it and just adding a note in the install instructions for users of 1.5.4 or below to run this step manually.

... or add a note to the instructions to let the Advanced Shipper users know that they need to remove the SQL statement prior to install.

I'm guessing that the previous post has to do with this (https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread....hipping-issues) posting.

Correct, although I don't know for a fact that he uses Advanced Shipper, just that he has some other weirdness going on with that field.

The advanced shipper installations I have seen recently use "text" as their datatype.

I think just removing this code (which won't be required for newer installations) would be the better move. People shouldn't be installing new plugins on Zen Cart 1.5.4 and expecting good things.

Hi @lat9, not sure if any updates for this EMS intl issue as I mentioned before... Though not many customers use it, but it is better to have it working.

Yes, that was my attempt (keyword) to get those name-change updates to apply without having to (a) record your current settings, (b) remove the module, (c) re-install the module and (d) re-apply those previous settings.

The next update (with the associated name changes) will require that a site perform the steps identified above instead of attempting to automatically provide those naming updates.

That's great. Thank you so much for the update as always.
