calculate shipping based on distance?

  • Is it possible to calculate the shipping cost based on the location the customer picked?
    This could easily be implemented with Google’s Distance API.

    Hello @mschweini ,

    Yes you can calculate shipping using custom code. When a user is select location/change long/lat using the map it triggers ajax update. so using woocommerce_checkout_update_order_review this action hook you can modify the shipping cost.
    a sample code may look like this 

    
add_action('woocommerce_checkout_update_order_review','sg_modify_shipping_cost',10,1);

function sg_modify_shipping_cost( $posted_data ){

// print all posted data to debugg.log. This contain long/lat
error_log(print_r($posted_data,true));

// code for modifying shipping cost. 

}
