UPS Plugin - Weight not inherited by variant

There is an issue with the UPS shipping plug-in whereby the weight of the parent product is not being inherited by the product variants.

This means that I am facing having to set the weights for every variant in my client's store - not something I'm looking forward to doing.

I have verified this by setting and unsetting the weights in the variants. Unset the UPS shipping method is not presented. Set, it is presented.

I have the Hikashop UPS Shipping Plugin Version 1.0.0 April 2011 installed.

Is this a known issue? Is there a fix? Why doesn't a versioned UPS Shipping Plugin appear in the Downloads section?

Any input on this issue please?

That's a know issue with the current version of HikaShop and has already been fixed for next version of HikaShop which will be released soon. We already published a beta where that problem is fixed:
