OSC doesn't worry which you use, just make sure the shipping charges are for your selected unit of measure and you have edited all the language files to reflect your choice (if needed, as I haven't looked).

 

Language files are in

 

/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/....

Can't get my head around this for peanuts :'(

 

The product I sell weights 4 grams and 8 grams The price of the postage is e.g. -100g = 2.40 euro 101-250= 3.50 euro

 

So when I put my product in and have to put the weight, there stands a 0.00

 

so what weight do I put in? 0.04 or 004?

 

Can anyone make sense of this and help me?

 

Thank you in advance

4 grams is 0.004 kg.

If you are using grams, just put in 4 (unless you use an external rate calculator to determine shipping, in which case you put the weights in according to the units that it uses).

Put your weights in as 4 or 8.

 

Set your shipping charges to

 

100:2.4,250:3.40,99999:99999.90

 

Set max wt you will despatch in your admin as well along with package tare wt and large pakage %
