Guest Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Hi everyone! This is my first post on here :P hope you all had a good day! First of all, I know nothing about .php script and nothing to MySQL lol but I love the challenge. Second, The update file for Price correction April 2010 seems not a full version of this wonderfull Addon. It doesnt contain files to put under /languages/english/modules/shipping/ and Icon files. I had to write my own scripts and find different icons (saved as .jpg) for each services and upload onto my php5 server. After testing it on my site, I found something odd in Checkout and Admin Panel. 1. Postage seems wrong. 2. Service Title, weight, insurance and handling charge are not displaying correctly, plus its not displaying my icons. 3. In admin Panal, Addon is successfully installed but again, Those Titles aint displaying correctly. Please anyone would be able to help me with those problems and also provide me a FULL Addon File thats including everything I needed?

Guest Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 hi...i have sorted my problems by finding finding one of the latest package which stated as FULL Package :D seems everything is working fine now.

labbs Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 hi...i have sorted my problems by finding finding one of the latest package which stated as FULL Package :D AFAIK the latest FULL package at UK Royal Mail & Overseas Shipping Methods 21st Aug Prices is UK Royal Mail & Overseas Shipping Methods v2.2.1 uploaded by jwilkins on 7 Jan 2010. Once you have this installed and working you'll need to update the prices by editing the values for each module. One way to start is using the included spreadsheet (090406_UK_Postal_Rates), work your way through the Royal Mail site http://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/product1?catId=500185&mediaId=400023 updating the prices in the spreadsheet as required, and then finally using cut and paste while editing a method in the Admin control panel to insert the new price and compensation strings.

MrBeard Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Hi Fantastic addon. I found the update and installed it only to discover that I was missing all the language files and had to find the original. Well sorted that. uploaded then updated. it seems to all work except for one issue I have; I have all of them active except citylink to test. When I have items in my cart of 1.5K it only shows standard parcels and parcelforce despite the fact that first class works upto 3K or 10K depending on code or admin screen. where as if I have a cart of 0.03k I get all the items I expect. I tried to search through the topic for help but could not find a ready answer. What have I missed? I'm sure it must be to do with weight limits but I can't figure it out.

MrBeard Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Ooopps! I just noticed the "maximum Value". Hadn't connected that to the value of the product. Modified those and it all works. Many Thanks Brilliant Addon MrBeard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nils2010 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Hi there, Right, please hang it there with me on this, I am a total beginner with PHP, it scare the hell out of me. I have installed the files: rmairsure.php parcelforce48.php rmfirstrec.php to the /includes/modules/shipping/ folder. Once this has been done, in my Modules/Shipping window I get a series of fatal error messages relating to the languages etc - but it will still let me install the mobule on the right hand side. I then copy the same files into the includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/ folder and it then only displays 1 error message: and removes the install option. Also - which shipping button needs to be copied to the images folder - and from where? Can you help me please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon@SmallWars Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Hi All, I`ve got a couple of issues with this mod that I cannot fathom. When I installed the mod my prices as displayed at checkout started to look like this £1.34. I`m not sure what the A with the squiggle on top is called, but I`m sure its not supposed to be there. For Special Delivery Next Day for a parcel weighing 30grams my price is £5.05 but on Royal Mail website its £5.45 how do I adjust it to show the correct price? Same problem for ParcelForce 48 except other way round, my price £16.79, ParcelForce £10.79 Many Thanks for your help folks.

I`m not sure what the A with the squiggle on top is called, but I`m sure its not supposed to be there. The weird squiggly A is something I normally associate with UTF-8 settings.

Same problem for ParcelForce 48 except other way round, my price £16.79, ParcelForce £10.79 Once you have installed the latest version (e.g. v2.2.2), you will then need to update the prices. You should find a recent Excel spreadsheet on the contributions download page at http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,4473, which you can then use to cut & paste new prices into the configuration.

OK, the prices I can sort, but any ideas on the UTF-8 settings? When I get to Checkout all my prices show that squiggly A. Going to View/ Character Encoding says the page is being viewed in ISO-8859-15. This module wouldn`t have changed any of those settings along the way would it?

Going to View/ Character Encoding says the page is being viewed in ISO-8859-15. This module wouldn`t have changed any of those settings along the way would it? No the module would not have changed any of the character settings. The shipment modules return the shipping cost as a number, and because they are designed for UK use the number is in pounds. Also none of the shipping modules actually have the currency symbol hard coded, or in their language files. For a UK store you should have the default currency as GBP, and you'll notice in Admin->Localization->Currencies that you can edit the details for a currency including the symbol displayed for it. The problem could be that your MySQL database has the characterset as UTF-8, and as a result some munging occurs and you get weird output, such as the Squiggly-A £. You could try resolving this by editing the settings for GBP, and as the currency symbol enter the HTML entity £. Hope that helps...
