kickbacksports Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I would like to be able to have a message come up on the checkout shipping screen if an international customers purchases weigh more than 2kg, telling them to contact our store to arrange a personal shipping quote for their items. I have had a look at the code but as I'm fairly new to this I don't want to chance messing something up! Would anyone know how I could do this?

robburne Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Hi, I don't seem to be able to update any data in the shipping modules. If I change the handling fee or rate and submit the old data displays when the page refreshes. Any ideas? Thanks, Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robburne Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Hi, That thread did not fix the problem but it did remind me of another fix I had to run in order to be able to change the payment modules here: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=244188 Anyway all fixed now. I appreciate that this is not a bug/error with this module but with OSCommerce itself. Finally if I want to backup the data input for these modules where is the data astored, iws it in the SQL database or in files? Many thanks, Rob.

max_osb Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Also for those interested I have now posted my Surface mail option - I hope it works out there - it seems to on my system. Hi csjwoodward, I've just uploaded the necessary files to the appropriate locations, but when I go into my osCommerce control panel, Modules->Shipping, Surface Rate isn't listed and there is the following fatal error message: Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class surface_rate in /homepages/10/d85670999/htdocs/devshopmc/catalog/includes/modules/shipping/surface_rate.php on line 114 Any idea why? Thanks, M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, M I think you've put the same file in both of the folders in your release package instead of one of the files (the one in /languages/...etc) being the one that declares the text...or have I mucked up the download from your package??

However, I've got past that problem now and the Surface Mail option appears fine on the shop with correct weight etc calculated BUT if it is selected as the shipping method, and then <Continue> is pressed to go on to the payment method, the page merely refreshes as if in a loop so that one never reaches payment!!

csjwoodward Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Any joy on the bug yet csj?? >_< I think I've cracked it - just before I went ill I made a few changes (cosmetic or so I thought) to the scripts - but one of the changes put underscores into some of the names - after much too-ing and fro-ing I've established this is the cause of the problem. For some reason the scripts don't like the underscores. I just need to test a bit more thoroughly, then I will re-release it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason the scripts don't like the underscores. I just need to test a bit more thoroughly, then I will re-release it. I've just re-released the new version. Which has been tested on both my development system, and my live working system. If you have installed the previous version I released earlier this week please follow the installatiion instructions carefully - the previous versions must be removed to allow this one to work (if both script versions exist it can cause conflicts in the website). Sorry for any problems this may have caused to anyone out there. I really should have learnt by know that even a seemingly cosmetic change to a script needs to be tested thoroughly.

robburne Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Hi, I went to the post office today and posted a small packet to Austria: International Airmail small Packet 0.129 kg = £1.33 I can't see how this tallies up with the payment of this module. It would seem that it qualifies for the 2nd weight tarrif (Zone 1) : .2:1.69 I know the module is International signed for but I doubt it is only another 36p for a signature? Am I using out doubted prices or overlooking something? Similaraly a Small packet the USA (International Airmail Small Packet) 0.102 kg = £1.66 This would appear to fit the following tarrif for Zone 2 .2:2.48 Thanks in advance, Rob.

arduncan Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Hi - I've installed the module from 30 Jan, but cannot see anything at checkout. The other module previously installed was flat rate, which I've removed, so now have no shipping method, just goes straight to payment. What else do I need? I would also like the choice of a courier. thanks for your help Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCP15K Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Hi, I've installed the Contri and its brilliant! But i'm confused with a small problem... e.g. I have small packet price as £1.68 for 100g or under. But what is the parcel is big? I would have to charge the parcel price of £3.85 for 1KG right? How would OSC know its a big parcel? Is there any way of giving the item a 'Tag' so that OSC will automatically select the Standard Parcel price? Thanks in advance.

ianric Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Hi It's Tues afternoon and I'm falling asleep so it maybe me. I have installed it, dead easy, but it doesn't show anything for the UK. If I change my test customers country to Albania I get Airmail international signed for and no price because of the over weight (all my prods are in grams). If I change him back to UK the option goes. I've changed GB to UK but still get no shipping options. Can anyone help? thanks ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian OK I give up!! I put all my weights as 173 grams so modified the table but that didn't work. I then changed all weights to kg ie 0.173. Now when I checkout I get all 4 options :lol: but the 1st class std says Delivery Weight : 334.173 Kg's (Ships normally within 1 to 3 days) £1.70. There's only 1 product in the basket and it weighs 173 grams. Will leave it 'til tomorrow when I'm fresh. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shafique.awan Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Hi, There, First of all Thanks to everyone contributing to this effort. I am currently in the process of testing OS Commerce and setting up for a friend. I have also installed the surface mail but would like it to be as an option available to the clinet to choose. May be the client wants his goods early and would like to use Airmail for instance. However I observe that the module takes over and if the address qualifies as an international address then the only option available is the Surface mail. Even though "Airmail International Signed For" is installed it is no longer available as a choice. In UK addresses all choices are shown. How can I get the system to show both the surface mail as well as the "Airmail International Signed For" Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
