gizm0man Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 Hi Every one, I am new to oscommerce & i am trying to set up a shop with royal mail recorded delivery/special / air sure & parcel force. what i want to do is i want 4 methods. 1 . for uk customers recorded delivery( up to 2 kg only) 2. uk customers special delivery (up to 2kg only) 2. air sure for international customers Europe & the rest of the world( up to 2 kg only) 3. parcel force for UK & europe (If the items are above 2 kg in weight). but no shipping to rest of the world if the items are more than 2 kg. Becuase it is cheaper to use parcel force if the item is more than 2 kg I have found 2 modules so far for recorded/special delivery Is there any way of doing this please any help would be appreciated. Thanks Quote
seank123 Posted September 6, 2004 Posted September 6, 2004 you have to edit the 2 modules - I'm in the middle of doing it now for my store so I'll post the results ASAP for you. Quote

seank123 Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 Sorry for the delay - took me a while to work out but here they are: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,2435 Could be better but I've spent way to long on it already and I need to get on with the rest of the site as we're eager to go live ASAP!

But the same as all the table methods i have used i cannot set the weights and prices properly. For example. I send a disk out weight 100gms or .10KG for 1.99 which i would asume i would have to set the variable to 100:1.99 but no matter which way i set it up it wont calculate the charges. Any advise? Quote

Any advise? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 100 gms is 0.1 for a product not 100 it will see it as 100kg. Also in config in admin there is a tare weight of 3kg that will be added to the shipping charges, set that to 0. Giovanna Quote

osiris77 Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Royal Mail Registered Sorry, this shipping option is not available for this order Royal Mail Special Delivery Sorry, this shipping option is not available for this order Royal Mail Standard Parcel Sorry, this shipping option is not available for this order Does anyone else get this?

tanwen Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 Does anyone else get this? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, at least I did until yesterday. I fixed two of them (Special Delivery, and Standard) by putting GB in the Zone 1 country on the admin display for these modules. I found that by looking in the php code, and reading up on the comments. However, try as I might, I cannot get the Registered one to work and it still displays that message. Anyone else had problems with the Registered module ? Quote

Guest Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Thanks for that tip, now the Registered module anyone. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ummmm but Parcel Force uses 12 zones, including some like Channel Islands (zone 4) for which there are no two digit codes so how do we set them up. Can't just leave them as GB because shipping to the Channel islands costs three times what it costs for UK shipping. Quote
