USPS Module not showing

I have a new install of 1.5.0 When I went to Admin/ Modules/shipping there is no USPS Module. I have looked at this.. http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?284-how-do-i-set-up-the-usps-shipping-module

I did change my zip code from the 9 digit back to a 5 digit but that did not change anything. I still do not have a USPS module. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: USPS Module not showing

The UPS and USPS modules were removed from 1.5.0, in favor of plugins. You can download them from the Plugins area.

Re: USPS Module not showing

I downloaded the plugin for the USPS module, these are the instructions from the 'Read Me' file.

USPS RateV3 January 22, 2012

To install this code

1 go to your Zen Cart Admin to the Modules ... Shipping ...

2 Click on USPS and edit then save all your settings to NotePad as they will be lost

3 Click REMOVE to uninstall the current version of USPS

4 Load the new files with your FTP program they go in the same directories so you can copy the directory
/includes

to your server and overwrite the old files

5 Go to your Zen Cart Admin and to the Modules ... Shipping ...

6 Click on USPS shipping modules and click INSTALL

7 Configure your USPS shipping module

NOTE: this shipping module cannot work until USPS has updated their server with the new rates.
This should be done on January 22, 2012

I don't even have the USPS module in my Zen Cart (v 1.5.0), so how am I able to follow these instructions? Thanks for any help!

Re: USPS Module not showing

Since you do not have USPS yet, just install the files to:
/includes/modules/shipping
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping

and you will see this in the Modules ... Shipping ... when you reload the page ... now click on USPS and click on INSTALL and configure it ...

Re: USPS Module not showing

Thank you for a quick response!

Just to be clear, I'm using Filezilla, I drag and drop the entire 'includes' folder for the shipping module, correct?

Re: USPS Module not showing

You should overwrite the new 'includes' folder over the existing includes directory on your server ...

Then, if you peek in the directory, on the server, for:
/includes/modules/shipping
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping

you will see the files for:
usps.php

Re: USPS Module not showing

Sorry, can you tell I'm a newbie? :)

I looked everywhere, I don't see that. I'm trying to get that folder into my server through Filezilla. I just want to make I'm putting things where they need to go. What do I drag and drop into Filezilla?

Re: USPS Module not showing

I do not use Filezilla ... but usually in an FTP program you would see on the left:
\includes

and on the right:
/includes

then drag the directory on the left:
\includes

to the right so it overwrites the /includes on the right ...

That should copy the files where they belong ...
