ozpost shipping module

[Mike_Dean]

The checkout process pages will get this data from the ozpost module.

In the places where you altered ozpost.php to remove the 3Kg from the shipping estimator I seem to recall we were modifying the $description variable, correct? If so, you'll need to add more code to modify the
$quote->description variable as well.
Don't let the funny looking name scare you .. it is just another variable that the ozpost module uses in places where icons aren't suitable.. IOW, whereas "$description" is the iconised/tabulated "prettied up" description, the $quote->description variable is the "raw text".

Thanks Rod..

if ( $quote->description == "3Kg Prepaid Satchel Express") { $quote->description = "Express Satchel" ; } straight after the other mod did the trick..

Much appreciated..

If you are interested in optimising this, both changes van be done at the same time as a result of just a single test.... eg:

if ( $quote->description == "3Kg Prepaid Satchel Express") { $quote->description = "Express Satchel" ;
$description = "Express Satchel" ;
}

Cheers
Rod.

ps. This will only improve performance by a few microseconds, so don't expect any observable difference. In isolation it isn't enough to worry about, but such optimisations repeated throughout any given code has a cumunilative effect that can be quite significant.

Click on the 'Remove' button, then the 'Install'.

This will update the database and populate the empty boxes with a couple of new options/features.

Probably not.

Whether intentional or not Ccouriers Please haven't made their quote server/pages easily scriptable.
