Post shipping library made up for agoracart for UK Post Office? 
I have a website in the UK and I am wanting to add weights to my products and have it work out the postage according to the weight, the lady that has designed my site has asked me to ask the question here as she isn't aware of it. At the moment I am loosing money on some and making money on others and I want it to be fairer for all concerned them and me and this sliding scale of postage just doesn't work.

Thanks
Caroline

PS sorry if this is posted in the wrong section but I wasn't sure where to put it!

Caroline,
The shipping field of the database needs to be populated with the weight.
Then, in the manager -> Shipping Settings you will need to turn on custom shipping logic and answer "yes" to the question, "If using Custom Logic, is shipping measured by weight?"
Then they need to put their custom shipping logic which is based on weight in the custom shipping logic box.
For weight, the shipping logic will look something like:
Code:
@sc_shipping_logic = ( "|||1-4.99|5.00",
                       "|||5-7.99|7.5%",
                       "|||8-9.99|5.0%");


$shipping_price = &calculate_shipping($temp_total,
                 $total_quantity, $total_measured_quantity);

There is also documentation on custom shipping by weight at:

HTH!
