modify USPS module display text on checkout pages?

I'm sure there is a way to do this, but I'm trying to launch an updated site in less than 3 days and frankly need to focus my attention elsewhere. What I'm trying to do is have the text on the checkout_payment page for the Shipping option selected say "Shipping:" no matter what option is selected. As it is now, if they select In-Store Pickup it says "Walk In" and if they pick USPS Priority Mail it says "United States Parcel Service (Parcel Post (4-7 days)):" which is really messing up the look I'm trying to achieve. I only want to modify this page, and leave the checkout_shipping page as is (where it would display the full text, delivery time, etc.). Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can achieve this?

Thanks in advance!

To change how this reads on the checkout_payment page only ... you can customize the code in:
/includes/modules/order_total/ot_shipping.php

with the code in RED:

    function process() {
      global $order, $currencies;

// bof: show different shipping title on checkout_payment
if ($_GET['main_page'] == 'checkout_payment') {
        $this->output[] = array('title' => 'Shipping' . ':',
                                'text' => $currencies->format($order->info['shipping_cost'], true, $order->info['currency'], $order->info['currency_value']),
                                'value' => $order->info['shipping_cost']);
} else {
        $this->output[] = array('title' => $order->info['shipping_method'] . ':',
                                'text' => $currencies->format($order->info['shipping_cost'], true, $order->info['currency'], $order->info['currency_value']),
                                'value' => $order->info['shipping_cost']);
}
// eof: show different shipping title on checkout_payment
    }

Thank you--this worked great!

I found one more thing in the USPS module I have a question on: Is there a way to get rid of the ( ) around "Parcel Post" or "Priority Mail", etc? I only found the section with the ( ) around the transit time in modules/shipping/usps.php.

Thanks again!

'value' => $order->info['shipping_cost']);
}

}

Look in the module:
/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

and change the context of the two lines for:

            if ($time != '') $transittime[$service] = ' (' . $time . ')';

Thanks, but that's not quite what I was looking for. I had already found that piece to adjust the ( ) around the transit days. I want to get rid of the ( ) around the whole shipping method:

Instead of "USPS (Parcel Post [4-7 days])"

I want "USPS Parcel Post [4-7 days]"

In the line of code you referenced, that's where I changed the ( ) to [ ], but it does not get rid of the ( ) around the bigger element.

Any thoughts?

Thanks again for your help.

Look in the file:
/includes/modules/checkout_shipping/header_php.php

              $_SESSION['shipping'] = array('id' => $_SESSION['shipping'],
                                'title' => (($free_shipping == true) ?  $quote[0]['methods'][0]['title'] : $quote[0]['module'] . ' (' . $quote[0]['methods'][0]['title'] . ')'),
                                'cost' => $quote[0]['methods'][0]['cost']);

Also, for the Shipping Estimator you will want to look at:
/includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_modules_shipping_estimator.php

and using your templates and overrides customize the code for:

         <td class="bold"><?php echo $quotes[$i]['module']; ?> (<?php echo $quotes[$i]['methods'][$j]['title']; ?>)</td>
         <td class="cartTotalDisplay bold"><?php echo $currencies->format(zen_add_tax($quotes[$i]['methods'][$j]['cost'], $quotes[$i]['tax'])); ?></td>
       </tr>
<?php
              }else{
?>
        <td><?php echo $quotes[$i]['module']; ?> (<?php echo $quotes[$i]['methods'][$j]['title']; ?>)</td>
        <td class="cartTotalDisplay"><?php echo $currencies->format(zen_add_tax($quotes[$i]['methods'][$j]['cost'], $quotes[$i]['tax'])); ?></td>

Thank you once again for your help! I just have one last question I'm hoping you can help me with:

I'm trying to make a conditional statement that will do one of two things...

(a) If order weight is 0, make the shipping charge $5.00 and ignore the USPS rate quotes. Ideally, it would still display as USPS Priority Mail [2-3 days] as the existing USPS module does, but not pull the rates from the USPS site.

(b) If what I've outlined in (a) can't be done, then is there a way to add a handling charge to First-Class Mail only? So, if you have a 0 weight order, offer First Class Mail at rate quote + $3.00 as well as Priority Mail at rate quote, with no handling charge?

Thank you!!!

You should be able to customize the code with:

    // disable only when entire cart is free shipping
    if (zen_get_shipping_enabled($this->code)) {
      $this->enabled = ((MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);
    }

// bof: turn off if weight is 0
if (!IS_ADMIN_FLAG) {
  if ($_SESSION['cart']->weight == 0) {
    $this->enabled = false;
  }
}
// eof: turn off if weight is 0

    if ($this->enabled) {

NOTE: ensure that in the Configuration ... Shipping/Packaging ... that the setting on:

Order Free Shipping 0 Weight Status
If there is no weight to the order, does the order have Free Shipping?
0= no
1= yes

Note: When using Free Shipping, Enable the Free Shipping Module this will only show when shipping is free.

is set to 0 for No ...

Worked great! I used the same code on the flat-rate shipping module with a few tweaks and got it to switch between the two modules depending on weight. Thank you! You're a lifesaver

You are most welcome ... thanks for the update that this is working for you ...
