AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

You will have to go into the merchant control panel and configure the shipping gateway for FedEx Web Services. It seems like you might not have done that step yet? It also requires you to create new shipping methods. The existing shipping methods that you have are associated with the old service.

I reviewed the code and I think it is a valid point... we are encoding in ASCII (why would we do that?) when we send the values back to PayPal. That can definitely cause issues - not just with international orders but probably that is the primary source. It will take time to fully proof a patch, but...

Somehow I got unsubscribed from this thread. The information provided from Brian looks very promising. I am looking into this.

Ah... that's kind of an interesting quirk. It's too minor to patch backwards, but I'll fix it so in our future versions we don't have this problem.

Out of curiosity what was the cause of the discrepancy that you resolved in your custom solution? One thing that our certified patch has different than the currently released one is the ability on the configuration form to choose to always return list rates rather than to return discounted rates for...

This was the bulletin we issued on 5/6: http://help.ablecommerce.com/upgrades/ac7_aspnet/tech_bulletins/fedex_ws_patch.htm The link contains installation instructions and the link to the latest version of the files. If you have never configured FedEx Web Services for AbleCommerce, then go click thro...

All versions need to be updated. The existing FedEx API is going to be shut off. The uncertified patch should be used... there is no other alternative at this stage. Our certification requirements were completed earlier this month but I have yet to get further feedback from FedEx and/or the live key...

It is expected. The WS is abbreviation for Web Services. The patch was done as a new integration so that it could run side by side with the old one during the transition stage. You can apply it and then you will have both FedEx integrations installed. Once you configure the WS version you can deacti...

The Saturday bug is confirmed and valid. I am aware of it and corrected it in our source. It is going to be mandatory that we release some kind of FedEx update well prior to 5/30 so the fix should be available to you soon.

I thought we had published an interim patch for FedEx for past versions. I'm having trouble locating that and it seems this is only available for AC7.0.7 unless I am missing it. We are currently in the process of having our integration certified by FedEx. I think our hope was we could release a fina...

If you want URLs that do not end in aspx you had to enable something in the web.config... and this can be done from the admin screen by clicking the buton. This is an IIS7+ feature only. On all supported IIS versions you can pick a static url that ends in aspx without enabling anything.

Changing your URL is bad for more than just facebook, it is something that should be avoided entirely. Starting with v706 we offered tools to help manage urls and redirections so that you may pick URLs that make sense for your products and maintain them indefinitely.

When anonymous users check out a temporary account is created for them for the purposes of the session. Judy, if you wanted to make the account more permanent you could do it pretty easily. On the receipt page you could check the current user. If the username begins with zz_anonymous then it was don...

I also don't like the warnings on this wiki page. They are specific to use within scriptlets for front end display, not so much in regards to emails. You definitely should feel free to use nvelocity script for the email processing. It is extremely well suited for this task. We also have the ability ...

I have tried with and without the brackets = {variable} Any insights....Thanks in advance. I checked into this and discovered that wiki page is reporting old information. I didn't catch it when I made the examples. The $User parameter is no longer defined. It is always $customer. I've updated the w...

The patch you installed works - it was tested to ensure we were able to return rates correctly in line with the existing integration. The certification process will allow us to facilitate registration so that merchants don't have to act as their own developer - requesting their own keys. If you have...

We are currently in the process of certification with FedEx. The current patch is available to ease concerns of people receiving notifications from FedEx. We *do* have a working integration with web services, and it can be used now if you sign up for your own developer key, but we must go through th...

Did you ever apply the USPS patch released in 2011? The 2012 patch builds on top of that. If you are installing the CSV file, you may still need to do this: http://help.ablecommerce.com/upgrades/ac7_aspnet/tech_bulletins/usps_changes_2011.htm In 2011, we modified the compiled DLL so that we could di...

There is a brand new post on our blog that you will find interesting: http://blog.ablecommerce.com

The page does feel a little incomplete to me too. I added a new table to the page with a few sample properties. Actually, we publish a CHM file. This is a downloadable reference document that details all of the properties of these objects. It would be a helpful reference for a developer working with...

The original FedEx integration uses an API that they are discontinuing. There is a patch available as a workaround that will allow functionality to be maintained using their new API although it is not "official". We are currently going through the FedEx certified solution provider process to be offi...

Hi guys. I am still having trouble. I put the CSV file into our wwwroot/App_Data folder. I recycled IIS, and I still don't see the First Class Mail Parcel option. It still says package for me. I am in Admin > Configure > Shipping > Methods. Anyone have any idea why or how I can get the USPS name to...

I've worked up a control that has FB, Twitter, Google +1, and Pinterest buttons. We talked it over and will be making this available via a blog post in the next few days.

Adrian I wonder if I could get an update on this. Are you still using the original (unpatched) version of our integration and is it still operating correctly?

When you move your store from one server to another, there are some files you cannot directly copy across. One of these is ~/App_Data/encryption.config. That is the file giving you the problem. I hope you still have access to the old store and/or an encryption key backup. You will need one of these ...
