FAQ's

Why is my UPS shipping option not displaying on the checkout page?

Ensure that your shipping option is configured correctly in the admin area. For example, UPS does require that the configured state field be two capital letters, as opposed to the full state name or two lowercase letters.

When I try to print a postage label, why does it display the word "sample" across the barcode?

All you need to do is set the shipping option to "Live" mode, and that fixes it. "Sample" only displays when the option is set to "Test" mode.
