DougieMac Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 (edited) Having been working with prestashop 1.4.6.2 for a few days now, I find it does most of what I need it to do. Though I have found two sections sadly lacking:- 1) stock control of component parts of products, (though I may and probably have missed something) 2) Support for using the Royal Mail. I see modules for other postal methods, yet we in the UK get shafted once again. (revenge for our colonial expansionist policies? ) It seems to be the same for all the ecommerce software I have tried. Either it is:- 1) Setup for the USA and is a p.i.t.a. to change to UK 2) It doesn't support Royal Mail 3) Both 1 & 2. Now I realise the Royal Mail pricing stucture is a tad on the awkward side(understatement), being charged on both weight and size, but surely it cant be that hard to get a module/hack/whatever together? I am by no means familiar with php coding (as yet), but even I have managed to scrape together some pseudo-code as a start. (see attached txt file.) It's by no means pretty nor complete and quite possibly totally wrong, but I hope its a start/help to some of you more fluent php coders. Its a shame that such an obvious requirement is missing from what I find to be, in general, an excellent piece of software, more so as its open-source.

simondale Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Hi DougieMac, Did you get around this issue? I'm just about to install v1.5 RC1 to see if that has options that will enable me to setup Royal Mail shipping methods. Fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickoff3pm Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I find it incredable that Prestashop does not support the UK shop owner. How much are they missing out ? But they could support worldwide postage if they simply included a table based module based on wieght or price. Bloody annoying as hell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
