The latter should be (according to Aus Post's latest Feb '11 pdf file)

I seem to be having trouble locating this pdf. Do you have a link?

All prices should now be correct.
Please verify.

Yes, perfect. Checked 4 price brackets and all good

Thanks for reporting this problem. I do my best to ensure that everything is up to date, but with the sheer number of variations and possibilies involved it is always of added benefit for end users to do their own verifications and reporting any discrepencies they find.

In MOST cases, the discrepencies usually turn out to be 'user error', eg, getting quotes for grams instead of Kgs, but in this case you found a genuine error (the surcharge was being added twice), so on behalf of all ozpost users, a big thanks for taking the time to check and report.

Muchly appreciated.
Cheers

No problem Rod.

If the weight falls within the limit of a given satchel then the larger satchels should not be shown to the customer. Obviously the logic in the coding (either ozpost.net server side or local resolving code of the server response) can't handle the conditions as yet.

An updated version with a fix for this will be available within the next couple of days ... (assuming no unexpected distractions).

This update (V2.2.2) is now avialable from the ozpost.net website. It has been uploaded into the zen downloads area, but as usuall this will take a few days before the admins make it available.

If you are currently using V2.2.1 this is a very worthwhile (and easy) update. Only ONE file to replace and that's it. (no need to uninstall/reinstall).

If upgrading from older versions PLEASE read the upgrade.txt file - it can save you lots of time and effort.

Cheers
Rod

ps. As usual, feedback and bug reports are welocme/encouraged.

Perfect, Rod - quick fix too, thanks (no unexpected interruptions I take it ...)

I just need to solve this problem which is probably the last stumbling block in putting your little marvel into a live shop.

Any ideas?

Thanks / Frank

It may have seemed quick to you, but some of us have been living with this for about a month (since the 2.2.1 release)

Yeah. I've already posted them

I have a question about the wording in ... er... the two tpl_modules_shipping_estimator.php files:

echo STORE_NAME. " accepts all responsibility for any loss of, damage to, late delivery or non-delivery of goods ordered from this web site.<p>To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to release our carriers from any liability relating to loss of, damage to, late delivery or non-delivery of any goods you order from this web site and to assign all rights to claim compensation or insurance against our carriers to us and expressly and irrevocably do so by clicking the following box.

I'm no lawyer, so I don't know if this is standard and/or required wording to relieve the carriers we use of responsibility, but it does seem to say that we the merchants are responsible for loss, late delivery or damage etc.

Not sure I want to be responsible for any carrier's late delivery. Damage and loss is OK, because it doesn't happen that often.

Where did the wording come from, Rod?

< chomp >

Firstly, if you found this text in both tpl_modules_shipping_estimator.php files then it is because at some stage or other you overwrote the original zencart file rather than using the override version.

Secondly, this text hasn't been a part of this file for several versions now, so its time you updated :-)

Where did the wording come from, Rod?

The text came from the drc.edeliver.com.au website.. The displaying of this text is/was a requirement of using the drc servers (not that anyone would really know or care), and since ozpost no longer obtains data from this server there is no need for the ozpost client to display it.

The later versions of ozpost display a message that reads "please enter countrty or postcode" instead, and this is user defined via the language file.

Ah. All this time I have only been upgrading the two files and the icons folder according to the UPGRADE.txt file. I guess I should have done a full upgrade yonks back!

OK, so I have upgraded fully now.

While I'm at it, here is what is displaying:



Hardly earth-shatteringly important, but Argentina is displaying as a "Suburb" with the same postcode as Marrickville, or have I stuffed up again?

And I have always wondered about the "Boxes:" ...should something appear after the colon? Or only in what circumstance?
