Fast and Easy Checkout

What USPS plugin is that? The one I have only does a shipping label.

Sorry, I should not say it is a plug-in, rather it is the USPS shipping module that comes standard with Zen-Cart

Do you have a valid ID for the USPS Web Tools?

Is this a live store or the test data?

What are you running on, Windows, WAMP 2 , Linux ?

Where do you enter an address in what USPS form?

Are both your columns on during checkout, if so, any chance it's squeezing the center page and making it not show?

JTHeed,

Thank you for your reply and answer in the post (link provided above). It solved the problem, not due to the syntax / bracket, but due to the fact that that file did not sit in "mytemplate" folder but under the default.

Moved it across and hey presto! I have the first page of checkout showing. I did try with or without bracket and it made no difference, but thank you for the help.

Regards

Michael

Okay now having the same issue as soxophoneplayer. I cannot change the carriage selection. It is defaulting to flat rate best way on the first page and click any of the other options (per item, or store pick up) does not update the cart and does not carry through to the next page.

Just a small point. I have noticed that the shipping options are not listed one other the other in a list but are stacked with the first showing abox out side the second whose box is out side of the 3rd option (stacked rather than a list, if that makes sense)

Wondering if this is the reason for the error.

Also just a point on the order of things on this page. Would it not make sense to have the choice of carriage first which updates the cart totals below it once clicked so the customer does not get confused wondering how or why the carriage cost appeared.

thanks in advance for any help.

Fast and Easy Checkout Configuration -> Checkout Confirmation Alternate Text

What is the purpose of this alternate text?
Alternate to what?

When "Confirm the Order" is pressed, the base template is displayed with this alternate text prior to being diverted to Paypal or in the case of check, prior to the order complete page...... but why? What's the point? Why not just go directly to the destination.

Is there a way to disable this?

The only option I see is to change the text it displays.

Do you have it set to one page checkout?

Split page True or False.

I have mine set both to True.

Shipping will always DEFAULT to the Cheapest Method. I am able to change the shipping company and as soon as I do, it refreshes the screen with the new shipping charges.
Are you saying that your does not refresh the screen after choosing a different shipper?

where can i download this module.

soxophoneplayer:

Issue 2- changing shipping options on checkout from the default offered lowest cost. When set up as a one page checkout (FEC false, One Page true) then I can select a shipping choice and when I continue to the next page, that choice is reflected in the pricing.

But if I select a one page check out (FEC true, One Page False - or both true) then when I select the preferred shipping, which causes the one-page to reload, the selection is not completed, but reverts to the originally presented cheapest option.

I am having this issue as well. Also, when I set FEC false, One Page true, all the FedEx shipping rates disappear.

Version 1.8.1 can be found here:

Version 2.0 can be found here:
http://www.numinix.com/zen-cart-modules/template-modifications/fast-and-easy-ajax-checkout-for-zen-cart

This is a post from the Numinix forum, and I am having this issue as well. Just wondering if anyone else had this problem, and if so, how you fixed it?

I noticed that when an item that is marked as "always free shipping" the one page checkout (and likely when one page is disabled) shows all of the shipping methods still. I also noticed that no radio button for shipping method is checked. The total calculates correctly, but the other options can be selected still. If you select another method, it reflects the change in the OT as far as pricing goes, but it still says "free shipping" to the left of the updated charge in OT.

I thought this was just an error with my website, but I just test a free shipping product on the FEC demo shop, and the same is true there, the only exception being the other available method is store pickup which also has $0.00 price.

It looks like in the js on the checkout/header_php.php and in the tpl_checkout_stacked.php files it looks for whether the cart has only "always free shipping" items, but doesn't appear disable/not show the other methods like it should (imho).

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

hey all... i am having problems installing FEC...
i really know very little about sql databases, so i am not sure what this means or how to go about fixing it.
if i run the install.sql file i get the following error:

1062 Duplicate entry 'Permanent Account Holders Only' for key 2
in:
[INSERT INTO zen_query_builder ( query_id , query_category , query_name , query_description , query_string ) VALUES ( '', 'email,newsletters', 'Permanent Account Holders Only', 'Send email only to permanent account holders ', 'select customers_email_address, customers_firstname, customers_lastname from TABLE_CUSTOMERS where COWOA_account != 1 order by customers_lastname, customers_firstname, customers_email_address');]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

any suggestions on how to fix this so that i can move past this and finish the install?

thanks!!

Nothing to fix.. As the message states, you are attempting to enter in a value in the database that already exists.. (Perhaps you tried to install this previously??) Not a big deal at all.. You should be able to finish the install..

ok, thank you for clarification... i didnt know if that ment "we ran into issues, and didnt do anything you asked" or, "fyi you already had these but we put the others in for ya".

thanks for the clarification. i will proceed at this point, see how it goes.

diva, maybe you can help again...

i have proceeded with the install... uploaded all the folders/files including changing the template folder name to match my template.

i have run the install.sql file, with the above issue as before...

it doesnt seem to be installed however. there is no change in the login procedure... and i dont see anything regarding FEC in my admin.

any suggestions?

Can this addon facilitate checkout without an account (similar to Integrated COWOA) ?

Thanks.

any suggestions?Sounds like an incomplete install.. Suggest reversing your previous install and try the install again..

Thanks.Did you read through the description for this module??:shocking: (See link JUST posted a post or two back on this page)

diva, im sorry.. i feel like an idiot here... bc i cant seem to install this mod correctly!
when you say uninstall and re-install, do i need to delete each file that was uploaded, or just re-upload over top, and then just run the uninstall sql and then reinstall the sql?

also, what am i supposed to do with the 'order total class edit' file and the 'previous mysql edits', if anything?

thanks for your help.
