mkrueger Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 I can't figure out why osCommerce is bringing up the USPS shipping for downloadable products. Isn't it supposed to skip this for downloadable products? The only shipping module I use is USPS. I know the downloadable product is working, as I can purchase it and download it (as long as I'm willing to pay my tare weight in shipping). The downloadable product has a weight of 0.00.

Guest Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 product must be set to zero weight and downloads needs to be enab led. Quote
mkrueger Posted April 7, 2007 Author Posted April 7, 2007 product must be set to zero weight and downloads needs to be enab led. As I said in my post, weight is set to 0 and download attribute is set. I get the download link after purchase, and can download it. Unfortunately, nobody is buying my products because USPS shipping is like $5 minimum :-( Any ideas on how to fix this? I'm assuming my osCommerce installation is not working as expected? Quote

Check perhaps your shipping settings? what is the tare weight? ideally it should be set at zero from my observations. i know that played around with my reporting on shipping. Quote
mkrueger Posted April 7, 2007 Author Posted April 7, 2007 (edited) Check perhaps your shipping settings? what is the tare weight? ideally it should be set at zero from my observations. i know that played around with my reporting on shipping. My tare weight is .75. If I set it to 0, then the USPS shipping option still comes up, with a product weight of .1 I should mention: I need to have a tare weight because most of my products are real physical products. I have only one downloadable product. Edited April 7, 2007 by mkrueger Quote
mkrueger Posted April 7, 2007 Author Posted April 7, 2007 A php developer friend of mine and I are looking through the code. We see something branching on whether a product is "physical" or "virtual". Do I need to somehow make my product "virtual" in order to avoid shipping? How do I do this? Quote
Sandwich Posted May 8, 2007 Posted May 8, 2007 I second this conundrum. Any ideas what the solution is? Quote
