HELP!! Shipping errors!

[Guest]

I needed to have 5 different flat rate shipping methods so I took the flat rate file and appended a number to every call. The problem is that the module doesn't even show up in the admin and if it does, shipping charges aren't calculated. Here are the two files for one of the 5 modules I added.

 

/includes/modules/shipping

class flat2 {

var $code, $title, $description, $icon, $enabled;

 

// class constructor

function flat() {

$this->code = 'flat';

$this->title = MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_TEXT_TITLE2;

$this->description = MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_TEXT_DESCRIPTION2;

$this->icon = '';

$this->enabled = MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_STATUS2;

}

 

// class methods

function quote($method = '') {

$this->quotes = array('id' => $this->code,

'methods' => array(array('id' => $this->code,

'title' => MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_TEXT_WAY2,

'cost' => SHIPPING_HANDLING + MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_COST2)));

 

if (tep_not_null($this->icon)) $this->quotes['icon'] = tep_image($this->icon, $this->title);

 

return $this->quotes;

}

 

function check() {

if (!isset($this->_check)) {

$check_query = tep_db_query("select configuration_value from " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " where configuration_key = 'MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_STATUS2'");

$this->_check = tep_db_num_rows($check_query);

}

return $this->_check;

}

 

function install() {

tep_db_query("insert into " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, date_added) values ('Enable Flat Shipping', 'MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_STATUS2', '1', 'Do you want to offer flat rate shipping?', '6', '5', now())");

tep_db_query("insert into " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION .

The Handling fee will also be added.', '6', '6', now())");

}

 

function remove() {

$keys = '';

$keys_array = $this->keys();

for ($i=0; $i<sizeof($keys_array); $i++) {

$keys .= "'" . $keys_array[$i] . "',";

}

$keys = substr($keys, 0, -1);

 

tep_db_query("delete from " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " where configuration_key in (" . $keys . ")");

}

 

function keys() {

return array('MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_STATUS2', 'MODULE_SHIPPING_FLAT_COST2');

}

}

?>

 

 

Next,

When doing this, you are better off replacing the word flat with flat2, flat3, flat4 and be sure to do so in a case sensative manner.

 

Compare flat.php and item.php and see where the word flat and item are interchanged.

 

This is the flow you want for doing this.

 

Then, once you have flat2.php working, make a flat3.php, flat4.php, etc.

I don't undestand why you need to compare it with item.php. Also, I got it to show up in the admin section and then I set the values. When I added items to the cart and went to checkout, I clicked on a shipping option and clicked continue. When I clicked continue it just reloaded the page.

 

I don't understand what I am doing wrong. Am I replacing the wrong things?

The idea was to look at the naming conventions and see how the words flat and item are used in these two files.
