  2. 7. If you're shipping internationally, you'll need to fix a bug caused by changes in the USPS International Rates API. For details, do a search on "+USPS +International +API"--there are plenty of postings on the topic.
  3. If you're using the osCommerce File Manager, don't. It is buggy, and will make you crazy. Get a text editor with search and line numbering, edit according to the instructions, and upload the files via an FTP client program.
  4. 1. v2.7d is recent--but not so recent that nobody has had a chance to find bugs--and it's a full package, so it should be a good version choice. 2. The instructions are in the included file USPSMethods_2.7d.txt. First make back up copies of any files that it asks you to modify. It is also a good idea to read the Contribution Support thread before installing, to get an idea where other people have banged their heads. Cheers.

    PayPal

    Yes, chargebacks happen with credit cards through a gateway too. But RW speaks the truth that Paypal's Seller Protection Policy is weak. Almost useless, in fact. For credit card purchases, we depend on the MaxMind fraud detection (free) service. You'll get nothing like that with Paypal. http://www.maxmind.com/app/ccv_overview http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,2115 OK, off the soapbox now... :P

    BANKTRANSFER - MODULE

    Danish Bank Transfer http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1683
  8. Agreed, offering only one payment method is not the best. We offer Paypal, credit card via gateway, Check/Money Order, and Bank Transfer. We find the vast majority of customers prefer to pay by credit card, but we limit this option to countries with relatively low fraud rates. We offer Paypal only to N. American customers. For countries with higher fraud rates, we offer only Bank Transfer and Check/Money Order.
  9. I'd say outside the scope too. But so many people keep asking this question that simplyeasier finally put together a newbie guide. http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=151162

  11. Regarding installing contributions, you'll find some sort of instruction file within the contribution itself. The instruction quality can vary, but most are straightforward. To prevent a shipping module from showing up for certain countries, you need to create a Tax Zone (in admin under Locations/Taxes) containing only the desired country/countries. (In my case, I have a yellow folder titled 'USA' that contains only one country, the United States, and another folder called 'World' containing many countries.) Then go back to your Table Rate module and pick 'USA' as the Shipping Zone. Likewise, select 'World' for Zone Rates.
  12. Short answer--you'll need to get a merchant account for credit card processing, or the money won't go anywhere.
  13. Don't know which version of Paypal IPN you are using, but the version I installed way back instructed to add "Pending PayPal Notification" in Orders Status. Select the new status in the module's "Set Pending Notification Status" dropdown, and all should be good... The bogus orders show up with "Pending PayPal Notification", clear as day.
  14. Since you have another Free Ground Shipping module present (but not "Installed"), perhaps that one would better meet your requirements? You might also find other free shipping modules in the Contributions section. Cheers.
  15. Part of the problem is that it looks like the "Free UPS Ground Shipping" module you are using does not have a standard Shipping Zone setting (look at the UPS and USPS modules to see what I mean). That sucks. You might want to find the support thread for the free shipping module, and see if anybody else has a solution. Also, by my method you would not create a Tax Zone folder called Hawaii (presumably containing only a single zone for Hawaii), but a folder called something like "Mainland 48", containing a zone for each of the 48 states to which you want to offer free shipping. But that point is moot if your shipping module doesn't offer a standard Shipping Zone dropdown... :(
  16. You want "Tax Zones", not "Tax Rates". Once again... Locations/Taxes >>> Tax Zones >>> Insert You want to create a little yellow folder that contains a zone for each of the 48 contiguous states. If there is no folder, you're not in the right place.
  17. I understand what you are looking for. In the settings for each of your installed shipping modules, you should see a Shipping Zone dropdown list box...that list box is populated with the names of folders that you created under "Tax Zones". You'll find the same thing for payment modules (the Payment Zone dropdown). In other words, those folders don't necessarily have anything to do with taxes--it is just the way that osCommerce works. :wacko:
  18. We seem to have some disconnect here. :huh: You want to be ADDING a new Tax Zone in Tax Zones, not removing zones from Zones. DO NOT remove any zones, you still need them. Locations/Taxes >>> Tax Zones >>> Insert
  19. I'm not familiar with those shipping modules (no free shipping for me), but they should allow you to select a Shipping Zone. I mean that you should create a new Tax Zone in Locations/Taxes >>> Tax Zones. That will give you a new yellow folder into which you can insert your 48 "subzones".
  20. So you have some sort of Free Shipping module installed? In that case, create a Tax Zone containing only the zones for the 48 states that you want to ship to. That Tax Zone should then appear in the Shipping Zone dropdown for the shipping module. Select it, and only customers in those 48 zones will be able to use the shipping module. You could also create another Tax Zone containing Hawaii, Alaska, Guam, Manitoba, Federated States of Micronesia... and assign it to a shipping module that isn't free.
  21. Hi: You are correct, the mouseover should show javascript:popupWindow('http://www.turbowax.com/catalog/popup_cvs_help.php') FYR, here's all of my line 93... 'field' => tep_draw_input_field('cc_cvmvalue', '', 'size="4" maxlength="4"') . ' ' . MODULE_PAYMENT_LINKPOINTMS1_CVS_NOT_PRESENT . tep_draw_checkbox_field('cc_cvmvalue', '0') .

  22. Hi: Thanks Clifton, for this. http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,3010 "Supports the Newly released Linkpoint API Update you all got emails from linkpoint about recently." I would be grateful if someone could please post Linkpoint's email on this update. I can't find an email, or anything relevant on Linkpoint's site. Best regards.
  23. Hi: CSI = Linkpoint. Clifton has just posted his contribution for the latest version of the Linkpoint API for OSCommerce. http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,3010/
  24. Same thing happened to me, due to that confusing line of the instructions. All was fine after putting back $ip = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["REMOTE_ADDR"]; Contribution -> good, instructions -> weak.

    Curl

    Hi: "cURL is a command line tool for transferring files with URL syntax, supporting FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, GOPHER, TELNET, DICT, FILE and LDAP. cURL supports HTTPS certificates, HTTP POST, HTTP PUT, FTP uploading, kerberos, HTTP form based upload, proxies, cookies, user+password authentication, file transfer resume, http proxy tunneling and a busload of other useful tricks." http://curl.haxx.se/ Under Server Info in osCommerce admin, you should see something like this: curl CURL support enabled CURL Information libcurl/7.12.0 OpenSSL/0.9.6b zlib/1.1.4
