nmetsovo Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I just downloaded USPS Methods 6.1 to use on our OSCommerce 2.2RC1 store. In the installation instructions, it says: NOTE: SELECTING ANY GIVEN SHIPPING METHOD DOES NOT ENSURE IT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO YOUR CUSTOMERS. USPS RETURNS A SET OF POSSIBLE SHIPPING METHODS DEPENDING ON POINT OF ORIGIN AND DESTINATION, AND THIS CONTRIBUTION MERELY FILTERS THEM SO THAT NON-SELECTED METHODS ARE NOT PRESENTED TO THE CUSTOMER AS CHOICES. I have Express Mail, pretty much all the Priority Mail, First Class, etc. options selected. What I'm finding in my testing is that the module is offering me (as a testing customer) Express Mail Priority Mail Large Flat Rate Box Priority Mail (just the regular) Parcel Post First Class Mail What I find odd is that it is only offering me the Priority Mail Large Flat Rate Box, and none of the other Flat Rate Boxes. If I remove the Priority Mail Large Flat Rate Box option on the configuration page, then I don't get any other Priority Mail Flat Rate option. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this? Any help / feedback will be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Nicholas, I think the returned available options from USPS rely on the item weight. If the item is heavy, then the LARGE Flat rate box may be the only method USPS offers for a heavy item. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmetsovo Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 It happens even if the shipping weight is 2.2 lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 It happens even if the shipping weight is 2.2 lbs. I am having the same problem. Has anyone solved this? Looked at Ken's solution, but line 299 of usps.php in USPS Methods 6.1 is 'CU' => 'Cuba', Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 The answer for I am having the same problem. Has anyone solved this? Looked at Ken's solution, but line 299 of usps.php in USPS Methods 6.1 is 'CU' => 'Cuba', Thanks. The answer for me was to capitalize FLAT in the line. 'Priority Mail Small Flat Rate Box' => 'SM FLAT Rate Box', Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Although I solved my previous problem of Domestic "Priority Mail Small Flat Rate Box" not showing, now I am experiencing the same problem with "Priority Mail International Small Flat Rate Box" not showing. Does anyone have this option working in their install? Does anyone have a fix? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 FOLLOWUP: Upon further research, I believe the correct way to solve this problem is by putting in very accurate dimensions for the package sizes. For example, for shipments up to 5 pounds, a small flat rate box is 8.625 x 5.375 x 1.625. Once these were added domestic and international flat rate box options showed accurately.
