Selecting a default payment method in oscommerce is usually done by inserting:

$payment = (!$payment) ? 'cc' : $payment;

just before

for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($selection); $i<$n; $i++) {

in the checkout_payment.php. Where cc stands for the payment method. However when using ship2pay this trick doesnt work (at least not for me). This is how it can be done with the ship2pay contrib:

Log in to your mysql db using phpmyadmin or any other method of reaching your database. Go to the ship2pay table and change the 'payments_allowed' columns of all shipping methods. Make sure that your preffered payment method is the middle one of the allowed payment methods. If you have an equal number of payment methods it is just a matter of testing which one is selected at this moment and changing your preffered payment method to that position.

E.g.
You have 3 payment methods which are inserted in your 'payments_allowed ' as following:

cod.php;cop.php;paypal.php;

Default selected is the cop.php (cash payments). If you want to have paypal as the default payment method change the 'payments_allowed' to the following:

cod.php;paypal.php;cop.php;

That's it. Simple and straightforward.

If the ship2pay version 2 is not working for you, my version from 7 Feb 2005 will do the job

the download is: ship2pay_1.5.zip

I prepare most usefull file readme.txt & install.txt. Last version 2.01 have fix more details problem (wrong path, etc), not only the main error).
---------------------------------
Przygotowalem pelniejsze opisy plikow readme.txt oraz install.txt. W ostatniej versja 2.01 usunalem takze pare innych drobnych bledow typu bledna sciezka (languages/language), czy nazwa pliku jedykowego ship2pay.php/poland.php. Wiec jest tam wiecej zmian niz tylko te, które wymieni&#322;em poprzednio.

In file was error (w tym pliku by&#322; blad uniemozliwiajacy poprawna prace modulu):
/catalog/includes/classes/payment.php

was / bylo :
$my_ship2pay = new ship2pay;
$arrship=explode('_',$shipping['id']);
$ship2pay_mods = $my_ship2pay->get_pay_modules($arrship[0]);

should be / powinno byc :
$my_ship2pay = new ship2pay;
$ship2pay_mods = $my_ship2pay->get_pay_modules($shipping['id']);

And small cleare of instal.txt.

Great contribution, but found an issue with its implementation. Once the Ship2Pay v1.5 is installed, and you go to Admin to insert a new Ship2Pay association, the association gets created BUT NOT activated. This is because the default code for insertion sets the Status to "0" instead of "1".

Secondly, the code was programmed to allow you to "enable" or "disable" an association, but no buttons were provided to do this. So you had to go into the database to manually set the status to "0" or "1".

I have provided a simple change which makes the contribution more user friendly:
- at insert time, sets the Status to "1" so that the association becomes active
- provided buttons for english and german to be able to "enable" and "disable" associations. This prevents you from having to delete associations to disable them, in case you wish to use them again in the future.

Changes required:
- 4 new buttons to be copied
- Small bit of code change in 1 file

Included:
- all files
- ship2pay_1.5.zip
- size: 30,2 KB (31.018 bytes)
- size on disk: 32,0 KB (32.768 bytes)
- installation instructions in: Nederlands / English / Deutsch.
- to be used on osCommerce 2.2-MS2

There should be no problems, but anyway always BACK-UP first.

Changed the installation for MS2.
...no further questions in the forum ;-)

- German language support added
- small bugfix in SQL file

* corrected a small bug in admin section

Fixed some small bug that occurred with advanced shipping modules...

Upgrade instructions can be found in the install.txt

Altough I answered in the forum on a problem that was found in the installation, I forgot to change it in the install.txt

This release only has an updated install.txt

It includes all files of the contribution.

Problem in the sql statement .....

now updated

Added a status field so that you can disable the links.

Also made the admin a bit easier to use... now you get a list of all selectable shipping and payment methods.

For upgrading replace the files and copy the new files. + Change the database as detailed in ship2pay.sql

Found an error in installation script...

Only changed the install.txt

SUMMARY:
------------------------------------------
I needed a way to limit the number of payment options depending on the chosen shipping method.
For example When my client chooses pickup at store he should be able to select cash on pickup or moneyorder and when he chose flat rate shipping he should be able to select cash on delivery or moneyorder.

After installation, go to the admin > modules and click on ship 2 pay
insert your links between shipping and payment.
If you don't specify any link, the code will work as before.
I know that the admin could be easier, but i think this is fairly good as it is my first contribution.
