Canada Post module

[Australian Caching]

DISREGARD THIS, GOT IT WORKING, forgot to add post code, not needed for quotes in Australia, just found out it is needed for quotes to USA and Canada, so it was working all along.

My bad, how embarrassment.

I have the latest version of the cart (installed last week)
I have the latest version of the CP add on, installed this week.

I have 2 websites, www.australiancaching.com/store, old version of CP works fine.

My other store, www.nacaching.com/store is on the same server, like a subdomain, I don't even get rate quotes for CP, so I know it is not a problem with the port, as the other is working.

My CPC_ etc is set for the other store, and when I phoned CP, they confirmed that regardless of the store, it will work (my settings in CPC are linked to the Australian caching site, they say it makes no difference, either will work)

All settings in new store seem fine, just nothing showing up.

I would have just set up a new customer number with CP, but get the error "phone number in ust with another account" and wouldn't let me go further (I am not getting a new phone to add an account to CP)

Any guess as to why it won't work?

Hi there,
I am little confused with installing the CP shipping module...
I have upgraded to ZenCart 1.3.9d (from v1.3.9c) yesterday. I just installed v1.3.9c not long ago and I was just learning how to get around so none of files were customized so I printed out changelog files and simply copied to my site.

Now, I am trying to install CP Shipping module and I got confused. I downloaded the file named canada_post_shipping_module_1-3-8c (I think this is the latest one available?!) and came with instrustion doc says "v1.3.7. and I uploaded new files listed but I noticed some of the listed files need to be overwritten.

I just copied the same files yesterday (namely
admin/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php
includes/classes/shopping_cart.php )
in order to upgrade to v.1.3.9 so I am not sure if I can upload the same name and overwrite these files...

Also, other files:
admin/includes/modules/copy_to_confirm.php
admin/includes/modules/update_product.php
admin/includes/modules/product/preview_info.php (if I copy this file, file size will be from 9,501(1.3.9d) to 9,319 (1.3.8c??).

Can I just override to my 1.3.9d files???
Any help for newbie will be greatly appreciated.

Hello Shinmai,

You can overwrite these files. But by doing so. You will not have the benefit of the new updates from 1.3.9d.

Used WinMerge to merge your files. Check here: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/i...hp?article=138

Thanks for the reply and links! Since I am newbie and don't comprehentd PHP files well, it might be beyond my capability to merge the files correctly but I will give it a try

Thanks again.

Well, I tried to look through files and compare but I am just giving up since ...collect_info.php and ...shopping_cart.php in 1.3.9d has less codes than CP mod files and I don't want to blindly erase some codes because I don't know how PHP code works...

I just hope that CP mod will be updated to 1.3.9d very soon - sigh -
For now I will just overwrite CP mod hope I won't running into problems.

Hello Shinmai,

You can test this Canada Post merge update for 1.3.9d. Let me know if it works for you.

Please backup your site first before installing this mod.

Here you go: Beta Canada Post 1.3.9d

Wow! just Wow!
Thank you so much for posting the updated files. I had to pinch myself when I saw your post!

As a newbie, I am trying to learn basics everyday (PHP, MySQL, CSS and how ZenCart work) but it is so overwhelming and easily lost in every new customization step. This really helps me to move forward.

Thanks again for your help!
