For orders over $200, we force domestic customers to use UPS as opposed to USPS. Here's how to set an arbitrary limit on the usps shipping module.
add these lines
define('MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_LIMIT_ERROR', 'For packages over $200 we require shipment via UPS'); define('MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_LIMIT', 200);
Change 200 to whatever you want the limit to be!
Find line 188
if (is_array($uspsQuote)) {
and replace with
if (is_array($uspsQuote) && $_SESSION['cart']->total < MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_LIMIT) {
Find line 281
elseif ($uspsQuote == -1) { $this->quotes = array('module' => $this->title, 'error' => MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_SERVER_ERROR . (MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_SERVER=='test' ? MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_TEST_MODE_NOTICE : '')); }
and replace with
elseif ($uspsQuote == -1) { $this->quotes = array('module' => $this->title, 'error' => MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_SERVER_ERROR . (MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_SERVER=='test' ? MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TEXT_TEST_MODE_NOTICE : '')); } elseif ($_SESSION['cart']->total > MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_LIMIT) { $this->quotes = array('module' => $this->title, 'error' => MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_LIMIT_ERROR); }
Make sure that you have other shipping options enabled! Don't disable USPS without any good alternatives.
Also, UPS can't ship to PO Boxes. If shipping expensive things to PO Boxes is important for your business, don't do this mod!
