How do I make the weight the same on all listing when adding a product?

My weight is the same on my items all the same- .125 and I'd like to make this a standard in the weight area when I am adding a new product so I don't have to type it in all the time. How can I do this? Thanks!

In your ADMIN folder on the server, you have an INCLUDES FOLDER.

Inside that you have a MODULES FOLDER.

Inside that you have several folders... Open the folder called PRODUCTS.

Inside that there is a file: collect_info.php

FTP a COPY of that file to your local machine, then open it for editing using a PLAIN TEXT EDITOR:

Find the section (from the top) that contains:

                       'products_id' => '',

                       'products_image' => '',

                       'products_quantity_mixed' => '',
                       'product_is_always_free_shipping' => DEFAULT_PRODUCT_PRODUCTS_IS_ALWAYS_FREE_SHIPPING,
                       'products_qty_box_status' => PRODUCTS_QTY_BOX_STATUS,
                       'products_quantity_order_max' => '0',
                       'products_sort_order' => '0',
                       'products_discount_type' => '0',

                       'products_price_sorter' => '0',
                       'master_categories_id' => ''
                       );

SEE THE LINE THAT SAYS:

'products_weight' => '',

EDIT IT TO LOOK LIKE THIS:

'products_weight' => '0.125',

SAVE the file on your hard drive.

BEFORE you send it to the server (to REPLACE the original collect_info.php, you must RE-NAME this original file collect_info.BAK

Then you FTP your edited copy to the same location.

You now have a BAK-up of the original, in case you made a hash of the editing, you can revert to your backup copy, simply by changing it back to collect_info.php .

That was awesome! It worked Thank You SO MUCH!!:clap:

Glad it worked, but "awesome" is perhaps a little strong for such a simple procedure. Neil Armstrong setting foot on the moon is "awesome". :D
