♥kymation Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 The previous MVS release was based on USPS Rate V4 Intl Rate V2. I suggest that you start with the MVS release and make the current USPS changes to that. Anything else would be a lot more work.

wkdwich Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) Of course.. I knew I was supposed to know that :) I'd be curious to see yours when you get done with it, your version might be closer to mine than this other one.. [Jim - we were posting at the same time - yes that is exactly what I was going to do.. 1st do the last Jan 2013 update which I never did because everything was working, then will do a compare with this version once Matt or someone a little better @ coding than I am get's the latest changes in place.] Edited July 26, 2013 by wkdwich Quote Debbie DFranklin County, VA "Moonshine Capitol of the World"osCmax Mobile Template oscmaxtemplates.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozEworks Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Attached is our latest version of 5.2.1. We have changed the module to deal with domestic transit times. Where it was saying Priority 1 Day we have stripped the 1 Day from the service name and put in the transit option. It will only show if Display Transit is set. We noted USPS is returning $0 for some Priority Mail Express International addresses. In particular for Canada where a space preceded the City name a $0 was returned. We have not made any modifications for this. Anyone modifying this or other modules might want to check the rate and hide the option if $0 is returned. usps.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkdwich Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 So herein lies the confusion... the MVS version looks also like it has been adapted to osC v2.3 and above and contains this "usps utility" which I have never seen until 2 days ago. My version does not have that. so now I am so thoroughly confused as to what version of this module I should be using.. grrrrr Quote Debbie DFranklin County, VA "Moonshine Capitol of the World"osCmax Mobile Template oscmaxtemplates.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥kymation Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 usps utility? What's that? All I have is a modified version of USPS Rate V4 Intl Rate V2. osCommerce has not made any changes to the shipping modules for 2.3, so any of them should work with 2.2. I haven't tried this, but I see no reason why it shouldn't work. Regards Jim Quote See my profile for a list of my addons and ways to get support.

ozEworks Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Just to clarify, the ozEworks version posted here is based on USPS Methods http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/487 V5.2.1. It has the latest country list. As of this post, tt has been fully tested to ensure all parameters work: Display Weights, Display Transit, Display Insurance. It has been fully tested to make sure Signature Confirmation and Insurance work correctly. It has been fully tested to ensure Retail/Internet toggle works. All domestic and international services have been tested. It should work with Stamps.com. In that respect it makes 5.2.2. redundant. None of our clients ever needed dimensional shipping so there has never been a business reason to use V6. We use this version on 2.2 to 2.3. We could post it as V5.3 in the Add Ons once we know for sure it is stable (Monday?) usps.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkdwich Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Kym, Thanks so much for the clarification.. Am I correct in thinking osC v2.2x and osC v2.3x - the file structures are different?? I know in the latest osCmax the file structure is absolutely changed.. It looks to me like I could move up to: USPS Methods 5.2.1 - Bug Fix version, then add in USPS Methods 5.2.1 - int'l envelope options bringing me current.. The for this latest update catalog/modules/shipping/usps.php to the file you posted above: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/topic/383307-usps-rate-v4-intl-rate-v2-official-support-thread/page__st__500#entry1676580 Am I thinking straight now???

WIljen Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I have had your contribution working great on an oscommerce 2.3.3 site for some time now but recently had to restore the site from a backup due to a corrupted drive and now I cannot get it to work. I have checked all the files - all are the current 1.7. uninstalled and re-installed the module etc and cannot get it to show up when I go to checkout. I get the local pickup and per item but it never does the USPS options. Where else should I check, seems odd that copying a working version would suddenly have this issue. Thanks.

wkdwich Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Kym, because inquiring minds need to know.. why did you alter 5.2.1 and not work with the 6.x.x versions?? The 6.x.x versions have USPS_methods_utility.php and the modules/usps.php is oh so different than the 5.2.1 versions.. I am discussing this with a osCmax developer and we're trying to understand.. if you or anyone else knows I'd appreciate getting some light shed!
