Was this information Helpful?

I am using Drupal 6.13 with Ubercart 2. I have enables two shipping methods: the flat rate and the weight rate. When clicking on the "click to calculate shipping" button I got the correct flat rate shipping rate. But there is nothing for the "weight rate". If I disable the flat rate method, then nothing shows if clicking on the "click to calculate shipping" button. I got no error messages.

Could someone let me know what could be wrong? Thanks.

Is the corresponding Conditional Action enabled and set correctly (i.e. like flat-rate)?

I did set the conditional action for the Weight Rates as follows:
Condition: Order has a shipping quote from a particular method
Action: Fetch a shipping quote

It still gets me nothing. Just wondering if that's the correct way to set the conditionl actions?

Strange thing is that when I go to the Conditional actions admin of my store at "admin/store/ca", and check the conditional action of the flat rate by clicking on the "edit" link, I didn't see any conditions have been set for the flat rate. But the flat rate still works.

Do you have a default shipping address entered? I had the same problem at first and had to tinker with a few settings to get a rate to show up. Also, try enabling several different UPS rates and see what happens.

Thank you for the kind response. If you meant the "default pickup address", yes, I did set that. I don't have a USPS or UPS account to test the USPS or UPS rates. Could you kindly let me know what settings you made for the rate to show up? Thanks.

The shipping quote condition will only work after the order has been placed. Before that, the order doesn't have a shipping quote, and when the checkout screen is first reached, it doesn't even exist.

The weightquote module should work out of the box, just like the flatrates. With that shipping method enabled, click the reset link for the "Shipping quote via Weight rate per product" predicate. That should give you a weight-based shipping quote for every order. Then you can add conditions to limit it to a specific situation.

If that's not the case, then we might not be talking about the same things.
