    Hello,

    I have downloaded your weightbased shipping plugin to test it with Woocommerce Bookings extension and found that the Bookings extension do not use the value of item quantity
    which means i will not get the shipping cost “weight * quantity” correct.

    With Bookings plugin i have a postmeta that gives me the correct quantity per booked item so i was wondering if it for me is possible to edit your plugin so it use the booking postmeta
    for correct quantity, and if so which files do i have to change?

    I did a test in the file WC_Weight_Based_Shipping.php in line 317 and changed from this:
    $buckets[$class]->addWeight((float)$product->get_weight() * $item['quantity']);

    to this:
    $buckets[$class]->addWeight((float)$product->get_weight() * 3);

    but that did not make any changes to the cart.

    Hi,

    I’m pretty sure it’s due to caching. WooCommerce caches cart calculation for an hour. You have to change something in the cart to refresh shipping price, e.g. add another item.

    Hello,

    I can see changes instantly if i change this line, just add value 10:
    $weight = $cart->cart_contents_weight;

    Nothing happens if i do changes here:
    $buckets[$class]->addWeight((float)$product->get_weight() * 3);

    Cleaned cache and tested with different products

    Maybe product weight is zero then?

    No, it works ok without any changes. plugin calculate shipping correctly if i adds ie. 5 items to the cart. Problems with Booking plugin is that you can not set different quantity for each item, it set quantity to 1 and i have to add quantity ie 3 as a separate postmeta. So i was hoping that by changing the quantity value in your plugin should change the weight as to the quantity i have added as separate postmeta. But as mention even by hardcoding the buckets line no changes appear.

    Are you sure your bookings have weight set? Is is possible at all?

    Anyway, there must be something simple. I’d suggest to run the code with a debugger to see what actually going on there.

    Btw, why do you need shipping for bookings? Just curious.

    Yes the bookings is created as any other product so just add the weight in the shipping tab. Did a print of your array and the weight was there an ok.

    There isn’t any function that prevent this from beeing executed?
    $buckets[$class]->addWeight((float)$product->get_weight() * 3);

    I am using the Booking extension to rent hiking, sports and fishing equipment. If you have a look here you will see how it works, https://www.pulpitrockadventure.com

    Works great now, only problem left is to get the weight based shipping to work, important because the weight can differ between 1kg to 30kg and then shipping will differ a lot.

    Ok, i found a solution. This line caused the problem:
    $weight = $cart->cart_contents_weight;

    This because it gives the weight based on standard quantity which always is 1 with Bookings. I built a function that calculate cart weight based on the custom quantity and replaced that line, then also updated the “weight * quantity” line to also use the custom quantity.

    Ok

    I Actually need some help with this, I’m building a sweet store and each item is measured in 100g, so say if I add 20 100g items to the cart it should calculate to 2KG, however the shipping still says 0-1KG base shipping. Probably doing something wrong here, but would really appreciate some help
