Drop Down Shipping

[rltwatch]

In version 7 we had a drop down shipping list on the check out page.

Since converting to version 8 this is missing. I have tried inserting the variable for the drop down box but it does not seem to work.

Can any one help ?

Thank you,

I have just upgraded to version 8.01 and the advanced shipping class selection is now showing up in the design view of the site but when this is uploaded the checkout pages still do not show the drop down list or special delivery instructions.

There seems to be somethinng wrong with the coding.
If Total Value is selected on the shipping options and you have multiple choices then you cannot intigate a drop down list, it just does not show up on the checkout pages. I have spent the best part of 20 hours on this now and cannot see any way to do it. It worked fine on V7 so I do not understand why it does not now unless there a coding error in the script as it does not work on the sample site that is provide with the initial install either.

I'll have to try sorting it by weight until a solution is found.

Spent most of the day trying again . Somebody else must have tried to the "Shipping by Value" section ? This should produce a drop down list so the customer can select the shipping.

Here is are the shipping phase and Advanced shipping template, I have not altered them.

Roy,

Sorry for the delay, am checking this one for you. Thought I posted this message yesterday, but it did not show for some strange reason!!

Kind regards,

[Bruce]

Roy,

This appears to be an upgrader issue with it not upgrading 'ShippingTemplate.pl' with the correct version of the script file. The correct file should be revision no 118. I have attached the correct script for you, insert this in {site}\ShipControl directory, then refresh the site and it should work correctly.

Kind regards,

[rltwatch]

Great, thank you very much Bruce, it works fine now.
