How do I set 2 flat shipping rates to 2 different zone?

Could you go to your Zen Cart Admin and in the Configuration ... Shipping/Packaging ... turn on the Shipping Estimator for testing it ... set it to 1 for the button:

Shipping Estimator Display Settings for Shopping Cart

0= Off
1= Display as Button on Shopping Cart
2= Display as Listing on Shopping Cart Page

The attached window pops up and I can select Texas.

Is there a URL to your site where I can fool with this a bit?

Sure!

Thanks.

Are you running the site in frames or something?

What happens if you get rid of those?

Well, yes, the cart is pulled into an iframe incorporated into a page of the site.

I don't know what happens when I use it outside a frame. I have installed a bunch of different shopping carts, all pulled into an iframe and never had a problem.

1 Do any of your products have weight on them?

2 UPS won't quote for over 150lbs on the Maximum weight ... the normal amount of 50 is the default but 70 for UPS without extra charges ...

No, there is no weight on them, they're only software DVDs.

I'm pretty sure that I have screwed up things in the zc admin area but I'm too inexperienced with zc to even know what.

I'm sure that I have seen the line "can not ship to your area" somewhere but I can't remember where.

I'm willing to give you access to my zc admin via e-mail. I need to get this cart going or my employer will demand to move to another cart and I have to start from scratch.

Thanks again for all your help.

When you say that they are only DVD Software ... do you mean these are all Downloads?

If so, you need to install the FREE SHIPPING! freeshipper shipping module so that there can be a shipping method when there is nothing to really ship ...

Then, these Products need to have the Download filename added to an Attribute so that the download(s) are available ...

If your Products are all downloads, what was the need to make Zone Definitions for your shipping if there is no shipping on downloads? :unsure:

NO, they are NOT downloads. They are bodily shipped.

Go to the Modules ... Shipping ... what shipping modules do you have installed?

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

Please check the attached files.

You already have errors in your cloned Flat Rate shipping modules that you made ...

All of the replacements need to be done properly when cloing ...

To make Flat Rate flat to USA Flat Rate flatusa ... you need to replace all occurances, case sensative, as:
flat flatusa
FLAT FLATUSA

you appear to have replaced all instances of;
flat
FLAT

as only:
flatusa

and this is breaking the code ...

You need to be replacing:
flat with flatusa
FLAT with FLATUSA

The same holds true for your other Flat Clone ...

You also appear to have other Shipping modules installed ... are those actually being used or do you have them set to Enable false ...

If you are not actually using them, then click on them then click on REMOVE ...

After you fix the clones of Flat Rate flat shipping module, see if it starts working correctly ...

Okay, I have removed all shipping options except the two that I need.

I found 2 instances each in the small flatusa/flatworld files in the languages folder that I have corrected. Uploaded, checked, the same message that no shippin is possible in your region.

Sorry for being a nuisance, I'm at the end of my wits.

Could you perhaps PM me your Zen Cart Admin information so that I could take a peek and see what is going on here ... :unsure:

Sure, just tell me how.

Click on my username, Ajeh, and select send private message ... :smile:

Sent it!

Ajeh,

It looks like the shipping modules work fine now, thanks to your patient assistance.

There are two, hopefully minor things, though:

I had set MS as the shipping state with a 7% sales tax applied but the cart charges sales tax outside of MS too. I'm sure I screwed that one up.

Another thing is a message that "The merchant login ID or password is invalid or the account is inactive", which is probably because authorize.net is in test mode, right?

Cheers,

Ed

Check the Zone Details on the Tax Rate and make sure that you set

Country: United States
Zone: Mississippi
