Re: International Shipping Problem

I was hoping to see the lines with the versions but this is showing me you will have a problem having this file:
/home/STORE_NAME/public_html/includes/modules/shipping/uspsOLD.php

That needs to either be removed or renamed:
usps.php_OLD

or it will conflict with usps.php ...

Could you check for:
usps.php

and see what version id lines come up in the Developers Tool Kit? :unsure:

Re: International Shipping Problem

the mixup only occurs between USPS Internatinal shipping - when there is a choice, ie (first class, priority or express), it's always EXPRESS mail thats selected

domesitic works fine, choice between "table rate" and usps express works fine

Re: International Shipping Problem

Hello I have installed tha latest USPS module for my store. I am running the latest version v1.5. The problem I am having is how do show first class shipping. I have it checked off in the USPS shipping moduled but it does not showup. and next what is the procedure for me to show international shipping. I sell magazines the problem is the billborad magazines I sell. They are bigger than a life magazine so my best bet is to go with First Class International but I cannnot get it set up. If someone could show me a procedure to follow I sure can impliment it.

Also I want to ship some magazines in Flat Rate Envelopes how can I make that show.

Please can someone help me

Re: International Shipping Problem

What is the Ship From?

What is the Ship To?

What is the weight of the order?

What are your settings in the Configuration ... Shipping/Packaging ...

Check in the Tools ... Developers Tool Kit ... on a search in the bottom input box for:
usps.php

and see what the version id is that comes up ...

Be sure you did a REMOVE, INSTALL and re-configure ...

Re: International Shipping Problem

What is the weight of the order? ... I have it set at 1

What are your settings in the Configuration ... Shipping/Packaging ..

Package Tare Small to Medium - added percentage:weight 0:0
Larger packages - added packaging percentage:weight 10:0

Check in the Tools ... Developers Tool Kit ... on a search in the bottom input box for:
usps.php

Two lines appear

Line #6 : * @version $Id: usps.php 4867 2006-10-31 09:59:01Z drbyte $

Line #9 : * @version $Id: usps.php 18997 2011-07-01 22:05:00Z ajeh $

Be sure you did a REMOVE, INSTALL and re-configure ...

For international I have the Flat Rate Envelope showing. The Billboard magazines cannot fit in the falt rate envelope so I would like to have the First class package but its not showing.

Re: International Shipping Problem

WOW now I see why so many people on here listen to your advice. It worked>>YEAAAAHHHHHH

Re: International Shipping Problem

Thanks for everything I saw in a post you had about the ounces that 1oz = 0.0625. So I will just multiply that for the ounces i need.

Thanks again
