My second question is, on the checkout page, it keeps saying "Error: No Shipping options are available. Please contact us for assistance!".
I have no idea why it keeps saying this - I activated ship by weight and also paypal is available as a payment method.
Please help, thanks
usually this mean you have a misconfiguration of weight rate.
AbanteCart shipping selection based on inner filtration. Filtration based on limitations such as allowed location, weight min/max limits and rates-by-weight and parcel dimensions.
All these restrictions you can change on the shipping method extension page.
Also be sure your parcel not zero-weight.
We suggest to enable setting config_cart_weight(settings->checkout or just type in search key in admin) to see total weight on the cart page (see heading title)
