No shipping data is loaded from previously configured FedEx, USPS, or UPS carriers

In Sitefinity CMS 6.0, all of the online shipping services have been moved to Ecommerce » Shipping methods. If you don’t see new providers automatically created for you, then that means there was an issue with your upgrade. Run the script below to recover your carriers:
