feerhei Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Building Jewerly site where things are less than a pound. If they buy 1 necklace... says it is one pound. Well that is fine, my problem is that say they buy a necklace, a charm, and a bracelet, says it is 3 pounds. but in real life it is still less than a pound. If there anyway to get it to adjust right? so it stays 1 pound? Please help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satish Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 There is no unit used in actual sense thru out oscommerce for weight. function show_weight() { $this->calculate(); return $this->weight; } is in shipping_cart class make it function show_weight() { $this->calculate(); return ($this->weight)/factor; } Quote Ask/Skype for Free osCommerce value addon/SEO suggestion tips for your site.

Tarheel Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 I've been having the same problem. Most of my products are 0.5 lbs, but the USPS calculation bumps them up to 3.5 lbs. Satish, thank you for your post. Can you clarify how we can get OSC to send the lower, actual weights to the USPS site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarheel Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Oh, I figured it out. In the Configuration>Shipping section of the Administrative panel, you'll see "average package tare weight," or something like that. 3 lbs seems to be the default weight. Change that value to a smaller package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
