USPS2 Not Providing Rates

v1.5.3 fixed the issue with the rates not showing.

One discrepancy is that First-Class doesn't get the Rate Indicator Restriction [XX] tagged on at the end

.e.g.
USPS (new under 1oz) First-Class Mail $1.03
USPS (new under 1oz) USPS Ground Advantage - [SP] Single Piece $7.90
USPS (new under 1oz) Priority Mail - [SP] Single Piece $14.20
USPS (new under 1oz) Priority Mail Express - [E4] Priority Mail Express Flat Rate Envelope - Post Office To Addressee $33.40
USPS (new under 1oz) Priority Mail Express - [E6] Priority Mail Express Legal Flat Rate Envelope $33.65
USPS (new under 1oz) Priority Mail Express - [E7] Priority Mail Express Legal Flat Rate Envelope Sunday / Holiday $33.65
USPS (new under 1oz) Priority Mail Express - [PA] Priority Mail Express Single Piece $43.70

Is that overlooked, or is there a reason? I figured it would be [SP] Single Piece like Ground and Priority Mail.

Doing more testing, but it looks promising.

FYI - testing it on a production site now.

Note that with the "USPS Ground Advantage", the Plugin name gets added to it.

So in the end, we get "USPS USPS Ground Advantage" (with USPS twice).

I tried changing it via Joomla Language Overrides, but it only changes it on the plugin admin side; it still shows up in the cart that way. I couldn't find it in the Configuration -> Language file either. Is there any place to change that?

Quick check of v1.5.4 seems good.

One thing that would be nice is to have a <span></span>around the Rate Indicator Restriction in the checkout's results.

Some of them get quite long and wrap awkwardly, especially for mobile.

Being able to control the presentation in the checkout would help.

I'm not sure if this can be done in checkout/show_block_shipping.php.
I see "<?php echo $shipping->shipping_name;?>" but not sure if there's a way to break shipping_name apart.

I see front-end template options for plugins like hikashopshipping_ups, but nothing for the USPS2 plugin.

So this is odd.

In v1.5.4, the double USPS in Ground Advantage is gone.

But on a different site with a fresh v1.5.4 install, I'm still seeing the double.

Never mind, figured out what you were doing. If I just had the shipping method = "USPS" it removes it.

A few additional bugs after orders started coming in, which we found when dealing with missing language text.

First is in the administration's Orders area, as just the constant name, not the shipping method value:

The orders coming in look good so far under v1.5.5.

There may be an issue with the "Thickness" value being submitted for LETTERS and FLATS.

A product has 1.25 x 0.563 x 0.25 (LxWxH) at 1oz and by itself returns fine.

But when 2x+ of that same product is submitted, I can see in the debug that the thickness used by USPS is set to the width (.563) rather than the height (.25 x 2 = .5), which is really the true thickness.

Not sure if that is USPS flipping it on its own or something the plug-in does upon submission.

But that doesn't seem right and will likely cause problems.

Is the plugin taking the shortest of width or height and submitting that as thickness?

I could swear during testing last week it the product height was used for thickness, and adding them together, i.e., 0.25 x3 = 0.75

Results for 1 product (.501 oz added for packaging via plugin) where it uses .25 for the thickness.
