Weight unit for shipping zones changed to kg

I'm using zones and have changed pounds to kilos everywhere including
includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/zones.php

Just spent ages trying to figure out why it didn't change in a customer order or invoice and then put another sale through on the test account before I realised it only works on new orders.

old Customer order and Admin/Invoice - Zone Rates (Shipping to GB (1 x 2.31lb(s))):
new Customer order and Admin/Invoice - Zone Rates (Shipping to GB (1 x 2.31kg(s))):

I don't suppose it is possible to change the unit for sales that have gone through. Just thought someone out there might be struggling with the same problem.

You'll need to edit the database files directly. Use phpMyadmin

If there are only a few records that need changing I suggest you do them one at a time. If there are lots of records, then creating a SQL command will be the way to go.

Hi RodG,
