Sorry, I'm totally new to AbanteCart. I've got a problem with extensions, could not figure it out how to make working:
1. Royal mail
2. Flat rate
3. Weight based shipping

I actually need Royal mail, but would be happy if any of it will work. I'm using anbante 1.2.5 at the moment.

Hi.
Set your products to Require Shipping ON, fill weight, weight class and dimentions if required and configure each delivery method in the Extensions > Shipping http://docs.abantecart.com/pages/ship_and_pay/enable_shipping.html

All these was done. I accidentally found the problem. The person who originally started the shop and filled all the data messed up with "location". Somehow there is proper location, when I choose it the shipping method doesn't appear, it appears only if I choose "all the locations". Didn't thing to check there in the beginning...

Basara, could I ask you a question? Does AbanteCart check customer location by IP?

Because the only problem was that under proper country name the wrong country (in location) was added. And as a result the shipping method was not appearing on the checkout. t took me ages to find out because it was never mentioned anywhere (not in Doc's, not in forum discussions)...

Hello.

Shipping method grab country from the customer's address. No matter what is customer IP if he want to delivery product to the Country/region selected in address.
If you want to limit some delivery method (shipping extension) to specific Location. Check your current location config or create new one in the Admin > System > Localization > Locations http://docs.abantecart.com/pages/localization/locations_and_taxes/edit_location.html
