Title: NZ Post (New Zealand Post) Virtuemart Shipping Plugin VM3 ready
Post by: GJC Web Design on April 25, 2014, 16:30:19 PM
A Virtuemart shipping plugin for New Zealand Post (NZ Post)

- It is fully compatible with all Joomla and VM versions incl J3.3.3 & the upcoming VM3 and backward compatible to Joomla 2.5 / VM2.6 series.

- NZ Post recently released a new api (v2) for their shipping system. It is a lot more reliable than the old one so we completely re-wrote our plugin for it.

Small update.  v3.0.4

NZ Post have split the International Air to less than and greater than 2kg

So two methods with the appropriate weights need to be configured (or just use Cheapest Always)
