Re: shipping estimator does not work unless logged in

Depends on the Shipping Module ...

Then, depends on the Address that you add ...

Have you an URL to your site?

What shipping modules are you using?

Are you using zones?

Re: shipping estimator does not work unless logged in

When not logged in ...

Providing you have a Zone for the WebSite address you should see that in the Shipping Estimator without setting anything ...

Unless you login or define an address, you will not see things like UPS, USPS or things that interface with a real time calculation based on weight and location as there is no info to pass to these servers ...

I did set the Country and Zone in the Configuration, but only Country will show up after click on Estimate Shipping. Did I miss anything?

Thanks

Re: shipping estimator does not work unless logged in

First i will like to say that this is a great forum and it is very complete with explanations. Its amazing I dont have to post any problems on the forum because basically every topic that I had problems myself in setting up my store is discussed here. Thnx!

Is it possible for the customer to fill in address or postal code/zip code numbers in a field when the shipping estimator pops up and then shipping is calculated. If it is, this may help solve the problem of the customer not being able to estimate shipping when he/she is not logged in.

That is how the Shipping Estimator is designed to work for guests ...
