USPS Shipping Module [Support Thread]

I just noticed that USPS ground advantage shipping quote was gone this morning. From the records, it looks like this shipping quote was gone since yesterday. USPS priority shipping quote is still good.

Is it API partially down?

I checked a client site and see the same thing. I've not received any notice from USPS about issues.

Sigh, USPS has rebranded "Ground Advantage" with a registered trademark instead of a plain-old trademark. Update forthcoming.

K11k solved my issue perfectly. I can get ground advantage quote now as before. Thanks @lat9!

Thanks for your fast action on the SURPRISE rename, @lat9!

ZC 2.0.1

I have this installed and it's "mostly" working...but the shipping rates being returned are far too high because it's miscalculating the weight of the items.

An item weighing .5 of a pound is usually returning rates based on 3.5 lbs.

I think I had this problem before, and the fix was fairly simple, but I cannot recall what the issue was?

Look at the site's "Tare" settings in Configuration :: Shipping/Packaging, that'll add weight to to ordered products.
