wheeloftime Posted August 18, 2005 Author Share Posted August 18, 2005 Update available to Estimated Shipping v1.5 with UPS-USPS support On request the UPS/USPS shipping option will not be shown when there is an empty zipcode field. UPS/USPS would return a kind of cryptic error message on that anyway. The error for an invalid zipcode will be returned as normal. For those countries where a valid, or any, zipcode is not neccessary UPS/USPS will show the quotes as normal (at least UPS does, I can't test for USPS). regards, Howard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tegralens Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 How do I add this Contribution on the Shopping cart only so when people are in the shopping cart page shopping_cart.php they can see the Estimated Shipping. I tried what someone posted a couple of pages back but did not work. Like in the install text it says on step 3 it says Add the following to the file catalog/includes/classes/boxes.php (just before the last ?>): but do I still need to do that is I want it on the shopping_cart.php ?

On page 2 of this thread you will find how to add it correctly to the shopping cart page. It is merely a matter of not including the estimated shipping before the ending </form> tag from the shopping cart page itself. Read step 6B from the install instructions for which files to rename to properly use it on a normal page instead of as an infobox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zertis Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Make sure you have your shop's zipcode defined in your admin->configuration->shipping/packaging->Postal Code (only the 46526) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, I have the exact same error, and I did initialy forget my zip code as well.

Have you filled in Country of Origin as United States ? I have not really a clue for you as the only way I could test this was to find a valid 5 number US zipcode on the internet and make the testshop of US origin. After that it worked and I don't know of any other possible configurations options which might influence this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The default includes/modules/estimated_shipping.php is for use as an infobox. By renaming this file first to includes/modules/estimated_shipping_infobox.php you have a reminder, by the name, where it is supposed to be used for in case you want to use estimated shipping with an infobox at a later time. After that you rename the file includes/modules/estimated_shipping_index.php to includes/modules/estimated_shipping.php and that should take care for the little difference in displaying the estimated shipping box as an infobox in the left/right column or somewhere inside the index.php, shopping_cart.php etc. Then you should also have a file estimated_shipping_functions.php inside the directory includes/functions/, a file estimated_shipping_class.php inside the directory includes/classes and a file estimated_shipping.php inside each of your language directories (like includes/languages/english/estimated_shipping.php). And not to forget the line define('FILENAME_ESTIMATED_SHIPPING', 'estimated_shipping.php'); inside the file includes/filenames.php.If that is all set you should see it unless there is something wrong with the placement of include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_ESTIMATED_SHIPPING). Or, didn't think of that earlier, you use maybe a templating system which could make things different ? If you can't give a link to your shop then copy/paste the code for your shopping_cart.php here please. regards, Howard Edited August 26, 2005 by wheeloftime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When checking in Firefox all seemed fine but later I realized that was because you can set your minimum font size in Firefox and so even with set to 1px it would show as 10px in Firefox :D With Internet Explorer that isn't an option and it will show the defined size which is that 6px :blush: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wheeloftime Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 This is when i add a item to the cart with no zipcode DHL/Airborne (1 x 6lbs) The following errors have occured: 1. Postal Code invalid. 2. Required element/node is missing. 3. Required element/node is missing. This is when a zip code is entered. The following errors have occured: 1. Sender Zip code not found. 2. Required element/node is missing. 3. Required element/node is missing. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> To surpress the error when no zipcode is entered you can change if (($quotes[$i]['module'] == 'United Parcel Service' || $quotes[$i]['module'] == 'United States Postal Service') && (!tep_not_null($estzipcode))) { to if (($quotes[$i]['module'] == 'United Parcel Service' || $quotes[$i]['module'] == 'United States Postal Service' || substr($quotes[$i]['module'],0,8) == 'Airborne') && (!tep_not_null($estzipcode))) { As the module returns 'Airborne Express' with the addition of the package information ie. Airborne Express (1 x 0.5lbs : 1lbs) you can only check for the first certain characters as that string will differ for each package. I think checking for 'Airborne' is enough (if DHL specific and not colliding with other shippers). The error for 'Sender Zip code not found' is probably related to your setting with Admin->Configuration->Shipping/Packaging. You must have a valid postal code for your own shop defined there. The ID errors I have no clue for, they most likely will be related to all the personal information you have to fill in with this module to be able to use it with DHL at all. Maybe you can find more information inside one of the DHL shipping threads (if there are). I can get as far as this in my test shop (made it US based with a US zipcode): The following errors have occured:1. Required element/node is missing. (The required node <ID> is missing, empty, or contains a value that is not the correct data type.) And as explained above that must be due to the fact I have no DHL ID, no password and no account with them to fill in. I hope this will get you a bit further and you can get it working !

wheeloftime Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 Hello again, when I change that to let's say 50% the only thing that changes is the size of the country. What I wanted is the size of the whole estimated shipping costs to be smaller. Any ideas <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You are right, those two values inside the modules/estimated_shipping.php have no influence when you want the whole box smaller. The best I could find so quickly is to change the part where you include the module (default in catalog/index.php) <?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_ESTIMATED_SHIPPING); ?> to <table width="50%"> <?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_ESTIMATED_SHIPPING); ?> </table> You'll have to play around with it a bit more as it only gets smaller to a certain amount after which there is no change whether I set 10%, 20% or something in that order.
