USPS options not showing up.

Shana:

Never mind I found this thread http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35531&page=2 and now it works!!

could you please provide more info about what from that thread helped you fix the problem?

I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this but I'm having trouble with the new update as well. I downloaded it and followed all the directions and it's still not working properly, I don't know what else to do. Is there something I'm missing? USPS used to work for me for a year now and all of a sudden it stopped working, now I know it's an updated that I needed. I'm still running 1.3.7 btw. Thanks for any help!

My partner was not understanding that there was an option to be on a 'test' server or a 'production' server and actually still does not understand.. but I asked for the account information and usps contact information and called them and they said that we were still on the test server.. so I asked them to move us over. The did.. and now everything is working like a dandy.

Thanks for all the help.

I compared what this person did to what I had on my store. They detailed step by step what they did and how they filled in the form on the USPS module. The part I missed was under shipping zone to select none. Once I did that it all worked.

Here is the part that helped me- the details under #3.

I am using,
ZenCart version: 1.3.0
MySQL version: 4.1.12
PHP version: 4.3.11
Apache version: 2.0.54 (Unix)

I followed the instructions on this forum.
I did the following:

1. I got the User ID from https://secure.shippingapis.com/registration/

I installed the USPS module from ZenCart Admin page, and tested in Test mode, but the module did not work. I searched this forum and found this thread. One of the suggestion was to use the production server instead of the test server.

2. I called them at 1-800-344-7779 and activated our account to access their production server.

3. I logged on to our ZenCart admin page and configured the USPS shipping module as follows:
   Enable USPS Shipping: True
   Enter the USPS User ID: (our ID)
   Enter the USPS Password: (our ID)
   Which Server to use: Production
   Handling Fee: 0
   Tax Class: --none--
   Tax Basis: Shipping
   Shipping Zone: --none--
   Sort Order: 0
   Packages 35lbs or more....: False
   USPS Options: all checked
   Domestic Shipping Methods: all checked
   Int'l Shipping Methods: all checked

4. I set up my Zip code in the [Configuration]->[Shipping/Handling] to be 5 digit Zip Code.

Thanks for the update that the Zone setting was blocking your shipping method from working correctly ... :smile:
