If you have an older version of Shipping Rate Provider Suite installed, you can delete the following directories from your web site:

  • BVModules\Shipping\Item Router
  • BVModules\Shipping\Item Rules
2.5 Order Router  and Package Router providers removed.

All of the features from Order Router and Package Router have been merged into Order Rules and Package Rules.

If you have an older version of Shipping Rate Provider Suite installed, you can delete the following directories from your web site:

  • BVModules\Shipping\Order Router
  • BVModules\Shipping\Package Router
2.5 InstallSuite.aspx removed.

After copying the Shipping Rate Provider Suite files to your web site, several lines must be added to App_Code\TaskLoader.Custom.vb. To make this easier, previous versions of Shipping Rate Provider Suite included a package called InstallSuite.aspx. This page has been moved to the BVC5 Plug-Ins menu so that it is easier to find.

If you have an older version of Shipping Rate Provider Suite installed, you can delete the following file from your web site:

  • BVModules\Shipping\InstallSuite.aspx
2.5 Shipping Methods created with earlier versions of Shipping Rate Provider Suite are not compatible with version 2.5.

There is no automatic upgrade process. The workaround is to take the following steps:

  1. Take a screen shot of the shipping method created with an earlier version of Shipping Rate Provider Suite.
  2. Delete the shipping method.
  3. Install version 2.5.
  4. Recreate the shipping method using the screen shot as a reference.
2.0 Order Router will not work with the Google Checkout implementation in BVC5 SP2. Use Package Router instead.
2.0 Hidden shipping methods (i.e. "Display Separately" not checked) will cause errors when used with the Google Checkout implementation in BVC5 SP2. The errors will be recorded in the event log, but rates will sometimes be returned (it depends on the timing). If you have the source code for BVSoftware.Bvc5.Core, remove line 135,
