| USPS Name Change |

The USPS Name change has struck again! The USPSv5 module is based on name matching, so this of course breaks the module for any service that has its name changed. In this latest edition, the "Parcel Post" is changing to "Standard Post". To fix your installation of USPSv5, do the following: In uspsv5.php, find the first line and replace with the second: In uspsv5.cfg.php, do the same thing: define ('USPS_SHIP20_TEXT', 'Parcel Post<sup>&reg;</sup>); // disable after 2013-01-27 define ('USPS_SHIP20_TEXT', 'Standard Post<sup>&reg;</sup>'); // enable after 2013-01-27

| On Hold - VM2.0 Shipping modules |
| 2012.10.21 21:31:45 | |
|
I know I've been promising a lot of people the VirtueMart 2.0 compatible shipping modules in the next few weeks, but I am going to have to put that on hold for a while. I'm really unsure of how long. Some life situations have come up that prevent me from having any extra time to work on the modules. Namely, I'm getting married in January and the plans are taking a lot of time. Also, my grandfather is terminally ill, and I've been spending more time with him. So, I'm sorry to dissapoint, and I really do want to complete the modules, but I cannot at this time. Keep watching this blog for updates, probably after January.
Please pray for me and my family, as we need all the prayer and support we can get! Tags: Joomla | USPSv5 | FedExv2 | UPSv2 | Shipping Module | VM2.0 | VirtueMart 2.0 Hits: 610 | Read more... |

| vm119 Combined Shipping Module |

My combined shipping module includes UPSv2, FedExv2, and USPSv5. It is based on VirtueMart 1.1.9 code. I've had approximately 15 installations with no reports of issues with this module, so I am publicly releasing it. Visit my "Free Software" page to download today.

I just wanted to clear up any confusion and/or questions about my shipping modules and VirtueMart 2.0. My UPSv2, USPSv5, and FedExv2 (and all other current modules available for download on my website) do NOT work with VirtueMart 2.0.
I do have plans to create a unified module for VM2 at some point in the (hopefully near) future. I've only just had time to download, install, and begin learning the ins and outs of VM2.0, so the shipping modules are still a good ways out.
Thank you, and check back here for updates. Reggie Tags: Shipping Module | USPSv5 | USPS | Free Software | VirtueMart | Update | VirtueMart 2.0 Hits: 883 | Read more... |

| USPSv5 Service Name Change |

USPS has changed the "First-Class Mail Package" to "First-Class Mail Parcel". I have updated the vm118 and BASIC versions of the USPSv5 module to reflect this change. To update your module, download the appropriate zip, unpack uspsv5.php and copy to /administrator/components/com_virtuemart/classes/shipping/. Save your config a few times to make sure the new name takes effect Tags: Update | VirtueMart | Free Software | USPS | USPSv5 | Shipping Module Hits: 673 | Read more... |

At a client's request, I have taken the first small step towards a unified UPSv2 + USPSv5 + FedExv2 module. I've merged them altogether and updated the core files to vm119! However, I've only tested the bundling option. I have no idea if the other features even work. I still plan on merging the feature set so that all modules benefit from all of the neat functions that previously only worked for one of them....but it's going to be a while. I've also been reading up on cutting and packing algorithms, with the end goal of a box-stuffing algorithm in mind.

This is a very small update of the VM117 version in order to be in line with the recent VM118 release. There were only 2 files involved, with some minor updates. You should be able to use the VM117 version with VM118 with little or no consequence. The previous version of this module (vm117-USPSv5.2011.02.10) is still on a donation basis release schedule, so I cannot yet publicly release this newest version. If you would like a copy of vm118-USPSv5.2011.03.25, please send a donation and I will email it to you. This donation will go towards releasing both versions publicly. NOTE! Anyone who donated previously for the vm117-USPSv5.2011.02.10 version can email me for a free copy. Please reference the paypal transaction number, or use the email that you used for the payment.

| NOTICE USPSv5.2010.04.05 |

The USPS v3 API is being discontinued in April. I have therefore discontinued support for vm114-uspsv5.2010.04.05, in favor of my new USPSv5 modules which support the v4 API. These have not been publicly released, but are available on a donation basis. There are two versions: USPSv5.2011-02-09-BASIC which simply drops in, and has no features; and USPSv5.2011-02-10 which is built on VirtueMart 1.1.7 code and features bundled/unbundled product support, dimension declaration, and GXG service support. If you would like a copy of either, please send a donation via PayPal to

, and indicate which version of the module you'd like a copy of. I will publicly release these modules once enough donations are recieved to compensate me for development time. Tags: USPSv5 | USPS | VirtueMart | Shipping Module Hits: 505 | Read more... |

This version of my USPSv5 module includes: - Bundled/Unbundled products - Package Dimension declaration - GXG support - built for VirtueMart 1.1.7
Like with my USPSv5.2011-02-09-BASIC module, this module will be donation supported, and once I have obtained enough donations to cover the 6+ hours of time I spent on it, I will publicly release it. If you would like a copy, please send a paypal donation labeled "USPSv5.2011-02-10", and I'll email a copy to you. Tags: USPSv5 | USPS | VirtueMart | Shipping Module Hits: 475 | Read more... |

This version of my USPSv5 module adheres to the "drop in" concept for shipping modules, meaning you simply copy files to the appropriate location, configure the module, and it is ready to go. No bells, whistles, or any other features of any kind. This module supports the latest API versions - v4 for domestic shipments and v2 for international shipments. THIS IS IMPORTANT! The old v3 API is being deprecated, and will cease to function sometime this spring. There is one gotcha, dealing with package sizes. Any package declared as "Large" has to have its dimensions declared. This is fine and well with products that ship by themselves, but add in multiple products or different dimensions and there is no easy way to determine package size. So the BASIC module will be restricted to use the "Regular" package declaration. I have not publicly release the module, but I am selling copies for donations. Once enough donations are gathered to cover my development time, I'll publicly release it. Tags: USPSv5 | USPS | VirtueMart | Shipping Module Hits: 402 | Read more... |

| USPSv5.2010.04.05 - Service Names |
| 2010.07.08 00:46:16 | |
|
USPS changed their service names again, which again has broken some services in the module. Re-download USPSv5 and re-install (files only). You'll need to run through the config again, as the internal service name and numbers have changed. Your selected services may be out of order.
