USPS shipping method - radio buttons - only Express option works


saveapet

Recommended Posts

Hello...

 

When I get to the USPS shipping method... it doesn't matter which Radio Button I select... Express, First Class, Priority or Parcel.... it only will add the total next to the "Express" when I continue. In this example it is $14.05.

 

Even if I select any of the buttons it still says "Express" was selected on the next page.

 

Does anyone know how I can get these radio buttons to work correctly?

 

Thanks in advance!

I found a newer version of the usps.php file and uploaded it.

 

This fixed my problem.... sort of.

 

Now the problem is that only 3 of the usps shipping options show up. For some reason it is leaving out First Class?

 

How can I add this one back in?

I'm having the same problem with the Express option. Where did you find the updated USPS.php file?

 

As for First Class, I believe it has to do with the weight of the package. I think it has to weigh less than 1 pound, but I may be wrong on this.

I am having the same problem. The only USPS shipping options that were available to my customers in the shopping cart were priority, express & parcel. When

any option of the three is chosen and the customer continues the checkout procedure it only calculates the express service. I called my hosting provider tech support and was given the advice to upgrade the shipping module. So from the OSCommerce community forum I have successfully upgraded from version 1.47 to version 3.0.2. Within the shipping module I now have all of the services available, but in the shopping cart it still only gives me those three options and continues to only accept express USPS shipping. I have called the USPS to verify my settings on the production server are correct and, yes they are. I see other people have this same problem - has anyone found the solution?

I'm having the same problem. It only chooses the Express option. In addition, the weight is always calculated incorrectly. I've devoted all day today to try and find the answer, but after a few hours, I'm still coming up with nothing. It looks like no one has fixed the issue yet.

 

I'm trying to teach myself PHP so I can fix these things myself, but I'm not to that advanced level yet. If I ever find the solution, I'll post it back here.

Okay! After an all day ordeal, I managed to get the shipping module working, in no small part thanks to updating the shipping module to the latest build. I downloaded and installed USPS Methods 4.3.1 Fix. The procedure was a bit involved, but the instructions were first rate! I don't really know PHP except to know what looks like a comment, what is a variable, etc. I was able to just cut and paste the code from the readme files and everything worked fine.

 

I've also figured out why the shipping numbers were wrong, at least for me. I had set the TARE weight in the general configuration section. Go back and set that to zero and it will use only the weights you set in the products section for product attributes.

 

It's late and I've been on this all day, but I'd be happy to post a more compete response later if you are interested. Just post back here or send me a personal message and I'll come back and work on it some more.

 

Good luck.
