hi

i would like to change the how the shipping weight is shown currently it is set as lb i would like it to be kg as it is easier to work out weights of the products that i am selling

 

the admin side seams to be set to kg but the shop side at the check out is shown in lb

 

also on the same subjet i would like to set it to 3 decimal places eg 1.123kg

 

nny help would be great full

I think this is what you need to look for.

 

goto includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/zones.php open this file up and you should see a line that says

 

define('MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_UNITS', 'lbs');

 

Change this to

 

define('MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_UNITS', 'Kgs');

 

This should change the units to Kgs when people view the checkout.

 

I am unsure how to chnage the number of decimal places however if I find out I will let you know.

 

Did this work?
