Calculated Shipping?

    Until recently, I always had calculated shipping per item. That doesn’t seem to be available anymore? Perhaps with my last update? Is there someway to access that feature again that I’m not finding? If not, which extension is best suited? Per Product Shipping? USPS?

    Thanks in advance,
    Jess

    Howdy Jess!

    Can you let us know more information about how you had the shipping per item cost setup?

    Did each item in the order cost the same amount, no matter the item? Example: 10 items cost $4.50 per item to ship, or did different items cost different amounts to ship?

    You can use the “Flat Rate” shipping method here to setup the costs:

    https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/flat-rate-shipping/

    It would be setup following the Advanced Costs information here:

    https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/flat-rate-shipping/#section-2

    If you have different costs per product, you could setup shipping classes, the assign the different classes to each product that it applies to, then use the advanced costs under each shipping class in the “Flat Rate” method to set that up:

    Thanks, Zach. I thought I had always had it factored in at each product shipping weights and measurements that was then calculated in the shopping cart based on destination zip code. Perhaps I confused this—I sell on multiple sites but have recently building my own domain as a destination. I have it currently set up to a flat fee plus % with max and minimum. That should cover me for the time being. If I were to upgrade to something that calculate the shipping based on the order shipping weight and destination with USPS, is there a simple extension you’d recommend?

    Thanks again.

    If that is the case, you must have been using a plugin like USPS to do that.

    Yes, you can use this free option to display USPS rates:

    https://woocommerce.com/products/shipping

    Or we also have this option:

    We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
