Is it possible for a user to get a discounted shipping, or free shipping, by entering a coupon code?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions–

Free shipping for Drupal 6, Ubercart 2 can be done through "Conditional Actions". No need for this particular module.
What we did was, under "Flat Rate", add sth like "Free Shipping for Special Products" or whatever you want to name it.
Click "Conditions"
Condition: Check an order's Products
Choose the SKU for whatever product or products you want to discount, and test. If you want ALL free shipping, choose ALL products (or just don't add shipping).

Thanks skyline5k,
Your explanation helped me set up a free shipping option. The question though is if the option for Free Shipping can be made available if a coupon is entered. I noticed under the "Conditional Actions" there is a section for a php snippet. I was thinking maybe on a shipping quote request we could put some php to check if a coupon has been entered. Any idea how to do something like this?

That I'm not too sure about. That hasn't come up in any of the ubercart sites I've built or maintained. I'll look into it though, as I'm sure one of my clients will eventually ask this. I'll see if I can't play around with it sometime soon with my test site.
edit: actually it has been brought up, but we ended up scrapping the idea because of fears that the free shipping could be used on extremely large orders, thereby losing a lot of money just to offer a coupon.

That's a good point. I think the way you'd have to implement it is with total number of products less than three or so. You'd definitely want to take that into consideration when placing the advertisement with the coupon features and restrictions though.
