Shipment missing in default.php - Help please

[eJuiceVaporz]

Hi,

I am very new to web development and was abandoned by my web developer after i gave him the money to create my website which he gave me non operational.
I have checked the default.php file in components/com_virtuemart/views/cart/tmpl which i have been reading online and every site i find in google search referees to changing a line or two but i have no info of shipment in there what so ever.

My problem is that i cant get the shipping price to add in cart on checkout no matter which kind of shipment i choose from the menu.

How would i fix this issue ?
If i need to add lines to my default.php file then where in the file would i have to add it  and what would i have to add ?

I use Joomla 2.5.14 & VirtueMart 2.0.24

I have added all the codes in my default.php file below if it can help anyone to help me better.

You should not need to edit the default.php code. It sounds like you are incorrectly configuring the shipping plugins - or maybe you are using template overrides coded for an earlier version of virtuemart which need updating.
