Shipping Estimate, can someone help me?

Post by alkasber » Sat Oct 11, 2008 11:42 am

Hello,

How Shipping Estimate works on Ablecommerce? I mean, from where it gets its estimates? I'm asking this because it only accepts USA/CANADA postal codes and need it to work with my country postal codes also (Brazil)

Where can I start looking to adapt it to work in another country?

Thanks

Shipping Estimate works for all countries, you just need to provide the required info on the shipping Estimate. If you want to have State/Province available as dropdown then navigate to Configure->Shipping->Counteries page and add the provinces info to the Brazil.

Mazhar,

The ZIP field only supports 7 digits and Brazil Zip codes has 8, where can I change the field to support 8 digits?

Thanks

Edit the BasketShippingEstimate file and locate the following lines of the code

Code: Select all

<asp:TextBox ID="PostalCode"  Width="150px" runat="server" Text="" Columns="5" MaxLength="7" EnableViewState="false"></asp:TextBox>                                
and make it look like

Code: Select all

<asp:TextBox ID="PostalCode"  Width="150px" runat="server" Text="" Columns="5" MaxLength="8" EnableViewState="false"></asp:TextBox>
