The format of the weight to cost in the admin area is: weight:cost,weight:cost,weight:cost

For example if you want to setup the following:
Cart weight 10lbs or less cost $10
Cart weight 11-20lbs cost $15
Cart weight 21-40lbs cost $20
Cart weight more than 40lbs cost $30

You would use the following rates:

10:10.00,20:15.00,40:20.00,9999999:30.00

The last one is important because it sets an virtually infinite ceiling. If you didn't have that 9999999 rate, then anything over 40lbs would have no available rate and would not show.

You should also make sure you've set up correctly the Geo Zones of the shipping method and so on the customer's you're trying the purchase.

I uninstalled it then reinstalled a few times because it was not working that why it says it installed when it's not showing... something that still needs looking at? The first time will work and seem like there are no problems but the whole thing needs to be studied and scanned for errors. Saying that you don't get any error messages, it just don't work so you have some php communication code missing, like you have copied and pasted the script, but didn't configure for the software.

It also does not connect to the estimate shipping and tax???

I think parcel force is work doing more test... but royal mail defiantly not responding?

You can't calculate it for other country's or type off shipping. It only responds to a single calculation, but it does respond to the formula you put in for the weight and price.

It is also not calculating the price according to the weight on parcel force??, so it doesn't matter if you have 1 or 10 it gives you the same price. Please can this be looked at as there is not point in using this CMS if that don't work as that is the whole point, and a lot of time was spend working with this CMS.

Please can you suggest a shipping setup that works?????????????

Thanks for the reply, but .....

Yes still not working please check and see for yourself

Please install, then enable

1. International signed
2. 2nd class recorded
3.1st class recorded

None of them show up, neither in the estimate or when making a purchase? even after changing to the correct price and format... etc.. .1:2.9,

Which means 0.1 whatever the weight your working with equals to 2.90, whatever the currency.

Bobby, could you please try to explain clearly in details what your exact issues is with the shipping module?
What is the expected behaviour and output in some given test cases? Tell us your setup so it can be tested.

I have read trough all your postings here, but I'm struggling to understand the issue, and how to test it according to your requirements.

I have explained??? it cannot be any clearer??

please install Royal mail shipping extension, yourself and then try and enable

1. International signed
2. 2nd class recorded
3.1st class recorded

enable the options, they do not show up when making a purchase, even when you change to the correct weight, and price formula

Also i am not sure, any of the shipping modules are calculating the weight, when making a purchase, so you get the same result when you buy 1 or 25? the cost of shipping will be more if the weight is heavier, so this need a increase in price and it doesn't

OK, if you think it's clear I can not help you. Maybe others can...

Hello

Thank you for your detailed message.

I have started to use the weight based shipping, but this is going to take forever not knowing every weight and cost of shipping for the actual package.

I know the price for second class recorded for the items we sell, but when you try and setup it up like i am doing on the weight based shipping, nothing shows.

I will keep trying but i am also 100% sure it is not working please can you send me a screen shot of it working?

Thanks again for your help

Maybe you could and should take, and show us, the screen shots of your setup please?
I get a feeling you haven't filled the needed fields, and/or published each of the options.

Like those found on the listing on Marketplace - https://extensions.arastta.pro/shipping-methods/royal-mail

Hello everyone

The problem is NOT the knowledge of how the formula works, it is just not working full stop.. and i think you want your FREE Time to credit for something at the end of it, so not sure where, this whole doing it out of the kindness of my heart is coming from??... i am looking for the person who added the royal mail extension. Not advice on how to set it up.

You are very helpful but i think it is important that all aspects of this community software are working before it went pubic And if it is open source then detailed information need to be stated saying some thing might not work., but all in all you guys have done a awesome job.

I need someone to test it and not assume i do not know what i am doing... that is why i have said many time please install and test yourself to see if you get the same result... surly the community part of this is what the forum is about... You want people to use this software come across problems with it and help to resolve so it becomes the best software made, which was developed by the community, i am not understanding the "volunteer our time for FREE" keeps coming from?

This is part of what a forum is about i thought?

Thanks for your help..

To test and see if we get same result as you, we need to know your setup - it's that simple.
If you can't tell us this, I don't believe anyone will be able to solve it for you, without access to your system.

Not advice on how to set it up.

Then I surely don't understand this thread or your issue at all. Sorry!

Thanks for all your kind words ...
