USPS sort order indicator is orange not green

Hellos.

I'm working on updating my test site first.

The USPS shipping module seems to be working correctly, but is showing orange, not green.

What does that indicator mean?

Re: USPS sort order indicator is orange not green

orange means installed but not active ... you've set the status to "false"

Re: USPS sort order indicator is orange not green

Thank you, Dr. Byte.

But where do I set status?

Here are my settings:

United States Postal Service

You will need to have registered a Web Tools account 
with USPS at their website to use this module.

USPS expects you to use pounds as weight measure for your products.

Enable USPS Shipping
True

Enter the USPS Web Tools User ID
---user ID here----

Which server to use
production

Handling Fee
0

Tax Class
--none--

Tax Basis
Shipping

Shipping Zone
Shp: International

Sort Order
0

All Packages are Machinable
True

USPS Options
Display weight, Display transit time

Domestic Shipping Methods
--none--

Int'l Shipping Methods
Airmail Parcel, Surface Post

Is there someplace else that I set status?

Re: USPS sort order indicator is orange not green

This should do it:
Enable USPS Shipping = True

You might try writing down your settings, and then remove and re-install the module.

Is there a problem with your USPS functionality ?

Re: USPS sort order indicator is orange not green

Enable USPS Shipping is set to True.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled a few times.

It does seem to function correctly: it pulls up quotes and proceeds to checkout fine.

But the orange indicator has me wondering.
