♥kymation Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 The PHP strtotime() function will convert most time/date strings to a timestamp. You can then add the desired amount of time (in seconds) and convert the result back to a string using date(). If strtotime doesn't work you'll probably need a messy regex to parse the date, so try that first. Regards Jim Quote See my profile for a list of my addons and ways to get support.

greasemonkey Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Thanks Jim - I got it working.... Now to look at the handling fee function - flat or percentage (neither) work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasemonkey Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I now have the handling fee fix. I also noticed and corrected the way rates are where being received - the original author had set to receive the rate including taxes (due) - when they are typically added by the store owner using a Tax Class. Rates are now received without taxes (base) - and (as mentioned above) are added by the store owner by setting a tax in the module. One more issue found and fixed... The service exclusions was not working on USA or INT quotes. I'll keep testing and then upload a new module Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinball Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Great work! Much appreciated!! Like many I've found that CP has broken sellonline, and it appears to be something related to port 30000 - I was chatting with tech support today and they said a number of clients were all saying much the same thing, so sellonline should be fixed soon - I hope. That said I have to confess that I am not a fan of the packaging addition as it doesn't sound anywhere near as good as the one found on sellonline, but until CP fixes that interface I shall see what happens with your latest REST version. I am running osCmax 2.5.4, but the changes are usually minor to get contributions for osCommerce to work properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasemonkey Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 @@Pinball I'm using this without the dimensional support (I have almost a 3000 sku's....

Just install the module as normal and make the changes to admin/modules.php (which I need to figure out why these are needed).

They announced they would be down for the weekend but have been down since (it's tuesday now) Our online shipping has been totally busted. I just saw you posted this new version. Is this a coincidence? Do you have it functioning right now? Thanks, Rob EDIT: Sorry I just read the rest of the posts I got anxious and wrote in right away. So do you think that sellonline will be coming back? Or since hte blackout have they moved onto only the REST module?

I`ve switched to this new REST module and its working very well. Upgrade is very simple.... as long as you have API user name and Password (they are different than sellonline). Yep Still not online. I activated fedex calculator in the mean time even though we ship with canada post, just so that we can get the orders pushed through online. I eventually got this reply from them admitting there might be an issue with sellonline: "We are working hard to get to the bottom of the issue. We are aware of a technical constraint when using TCP protocol - do you fall into that category? If so, we're investigating a viable workaround to save customers a few hours of recoding. Http protocol seems to be working fine." Not sure if that applies. I had to update my server to php5.4 as well as update my oscommerce site to the newest version to comply with the new php. All of that was due anyways (though I am probably switching to magento within the year),. but it would have been nice to have some warning and not just downtime with no fix.

Pinball Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Sellonline is back up now. I know that CP still considers sellonline as a moderate priority as I did get a few tech support notices after calling to complain on Monday. I still prefer sellonline as it does the box calculations better than the UPS packages.php module. I am thinking that it might be a way to do the best packaging setup for other programs - in other words, use CPs packing methods, and then take the boxes it selects and run them through REDEX, UPS, etc. to get the closest rates for our customers. Not sure how to implement this, but CP does send back the box(es) needed to ship the items, and I see no reason a sectioncan be added to other shipping modules to use that as the weight and size of the box for getting a quote. This will only work for Canadians who are registered with sellonline.canadapost.ca, however we are all Cunuks here anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather impossible as far as I can tell to use box sizing when ppl purchase any combination of those sku's) I have about 2500 items in my store and have dimensions for all of them, it just takes time to generate that data. So does your contribution only work by using weight? I thought CP lost a class action lawsuit over that very issue - Volumetric Weight. and they have to change by Oct 30, 2015. Are you finding the quotes accurate though when you just use the weight of the items? If your items are all small that is fine, but mine range from items about 1 cubic cc to things 30 x 20 x 15cm in size, and sellonline handles that very well and figures out the correct box from my posted list. I may have to install the SOAP or REST process for generating labels unless I can fix the existing contribution that used HTML scripts...I have found a workaround that is very nice for that - at least when I enter it manually after logging in and arriving at the select page.

greasemonkey Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 @@Pinball I see. What I have done is set the weight for each item at the (approx) dimensional weight. Example a large but light time (example: block of styrofoam) might have a weight of 10kg. So... It's working well as long as the weights are set correctly. Make sense? That said I plan to update my rest labels mod to work with this... when I get time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinball Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Yes, I understand the logic, however I am not about to recalculate all my weights just yet. Mind you the FedEx Web Services contribution only works from weight and I have to wonder if that (volumetric weight of each item) is the way to go...what I thought would be fun was to use the box as defined by sellonline as the same box for Fedex, however this is getting off topic now...

Druid6900 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I've been having a small problem since installing this module in Osc 2.3.4 BS Gold. It all works in calculating the rates and such and displays them properly, so, that's not a problem. However, since shipping costs are so high now-a-days, I never noticed this until someone needed something shipped by the fastest option and emailed me. It seems that, no matter what option radio dial you check, only the lowest cost one is passed to the purchase summary. It worked fine in MS2.2. Has anyone had this problem or know what the cause is?

Druid6900 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Anyone have trouble getting some of the rates from Canada Post? I know that over the last little while, CP has dropped some things, like Small Packet US Surface and added other things, like Tracked Packet that aren't in the Define file, but I'm not getting prices for Small Packet Air USA or International which some of my items clearly fall under. I have no idea what's going on because I used to get a price for it and it's killing my small item sales.

Druid6900 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) Yes, usually I don't either, but, I got some small stuff in and, because expedited works out to 3 times the small packet price, they aren't being bought. There is a canadapost.php file in include\languages\English\modules\shipping directory that defines service and display names, but, I don't know what it defines them for, so, I didn't want to play with it adding or subtracting services in case that's not what it's for. There is a list in the developers area on CP that shows a list of the (fairly) current service tags and the ones that are the same look identical. I'm not a coder though, I can just follow instructions... I don't know how the flat rate thing can be restricted and I would have to pick some price were I got more half the time and less the other half.
