BE AWARE: if you see other 'fixes' for things like 'Number of Packages' being wrong that those ups.php files will undo the changes unless you manually modify the files posted in links of that nature. So be VERY careful when downloading and install 'fixes'. It would be great if they just incorporated changes like these into the software as an option in the UPS module so you don't have to hack the core files and worry about updates blowing them up.

I can't believe that we're the only company that wants to list UPS options in order and have the cheapest method selected by default. Please advise on how I can do this so it will not be overwritten by updates as it's time that I need to do this yet again.

In that case, the solution will be to directly recreate a copy of the UPS shipping plugin but with a different name, so that it won't be overwritten after every Hikashop Update.

I know that with things that are template related, you can create an override in the template that does not change the core Joomla or template. It is simply overwrites those functionalities at run time. Is there anything similar for plugins?

But because it's an hidden option, you have to activate it manually in the hikashop_config table, by creating a new entry for it (and use "1" for the value).
