Post How do I get rid of shipping Method selection? 
Hi,

I'm going in circles trying to get rid of the long list of possible shipping methods on "Step One" of the checkout process.
I've tried editing the Shipping Settings under the Store Manager so that all are set to "No'.
I've edited the following files in /products/html/forms/
Offline-orderform.html
2checkout-orderform.html
LinkpointConnect-orderform.html
and removed the whole section that says

<tr>

<TD class="ac_checkout_left_col">Shipping Method:</TD>
<TD class="ac_checkout_right_col">


<!--PASTE SHIPPING METHODS FROM SHIPPING MANAGER BELOW - REPLACE ENTIRE SHIPPING SELECT ELEMENT-->

<select name=Ecom_ShipTo_Method>
<option value="$vform_Ecom_ShipTo_Method"><!--agorascript-pre
if ("$vform_Ecom_ShipTo_Method" eq "") {
return " Select Shipping Method ";
} else {
return "$vform_Ecom_ShipTo_Method";
}
--></option>
<option value="Electronic Delivery">Electronic Delivery</option>
<option value="Local Delivery">Local Delivery</option>
... ... ...
</select>


<!--PASTE SHIPPING METHODS FROM SHIPPING MANAGER ABOVE THIS - REPLACE ENTIRE SHIPPING SELECT ELEMENT-->
</td>
</TR>

And I've verified that it's not there. But I still get the whole list of shipping options, when I don't want any to be displayed! How can I get rid of this?

And while I'm asking: I only ship to the continental US. Where do I edit the list of states/provinces so that change "sticks"?

My store URL is http://www.chillydogsweaters.com/products/agora.cgi

Thanks!

If you edit the *-orderform.html files and upload them to the server, they do not revert back on their own. Make sure that the upload is actually going through... I had one client whose host blocked the ftp from uploading files...
Also, make sure that you are actually uploading to the correct place...
How are you uploading your files?

Oh, one more thing, you may be pulling a cached page, also, so do a refresh when you get to the order form if you still see the shipping options.

HTH!

Ah, I see - since this store only accepts PayPal, I need to edit PayPal-orderform.html. I wasn't quite understanding the logic there, and it's not documented anywhere (unless I've missed it - in which case I'd appreciate a pointer to the documentation)

Since you asked, I'm making this edit via FileZilla, a secure FTP app, so I open the file, edit it, and then when I save the file it automatically goes back to the same place. I can see that the file was FTP'd by the new time on the file, and I can easily view the file to be sure that the contents are what I expect them to be. And yes, I was refreshing the page to be sure I wasn't seeing a cached page.

That helped tremendously - thanks!

It is NEVER suggested to directly edit a file on the server.
It is always best to download the file, in ASCII mode, to your local computer.
Make the edits, be sure to create a backup of the file *before* editing...
Then, reupload to the server in ASCII mode.

HTH!
