Post Free parcel post shipping and paid priority shipping 
I currently have my shipping manager set up so that customers who spend over $29.95 receive free parcel post shipping. I would like to also include a way for them to be able to choose Priority Mail or Express Mail for an extra charge if they need to receive their shipment quicker. Is there a way to set up the shipping manager so that parcel post is free if over $29.95 but use the USPS calculator to calculate the Priority Mail and Express Mail costs? How would I have to change the custom logic settings?

What does your current shipping logic look like?

My current settings add a specified amount for priority mail and express mail shipping. However, I would like to change that to having USPS calculate the priority and express mail costs. Is that possible? Here are my current shipping logic settings

$ship_method = $form_data{'Ecom_ShipTo_Method'};
if ($ship_method eq "") { # try vform, perhaps there is a value there
$use_vform = "yes";
$ship_method = $vform{'Ecom_ShipTo_Method'};
}
if ($ship_method eq "") { # set a default value
$ship_method="Regular";
}
@sc_shipping_logic = ( "|1-10.00|||3.15",
"|10.01-15.00|||3.70",
"|15.01-20.00|||4.15",
"|20.01-25.00|||4.50",
"|25.01-29.94|||4.75",
"|29.95-|||0.00");
#
$shipping_price = &calculate_shipping($temp_total,
$total_quantity, $total_measured_quantity);
if ($ship_method eq "USPS Priority Mail (Priority)") {
$shipping_price = $shipping_price + 12.00;
}
if ($ship_method eq "USPS Express Mail (Express)") {
$shipping_price = $shipping_price + 30.00;
}
$ship_logic_done = 'yes';

I believe that version 5 would be able to handle your shipping requirement better since you can set up the custom shipping logic to run before the SBW. So, you could set up your free shipping condition and then what doesn't meet that condition then goes to the SBW for the shipping calculation.

HTH!

Could you please tell me how I upgrade to version 5? I currently have version 4.

You would need to install v5, set up the setting and get familiar with it *before* you start to try and set up and transfer files from v4. V5 is quite a bit different that v4.

HTH!

Thank you for all of your help so far, I appreciate it! I have one more question. Is it possible to set up the shipping logic in v. 4 to have different prices for Priority Mail and Express Mail according to the amount of the order. In other words, can I set up the Priority Mail and Express Mail like I have the regular shipping set up? If so, can you tell me how to do it?

That would be handled by custom shipping logic.
Take a look at the doumentation on shipping that is found in the 'protected/DOCS' directory.

HTH!
