Order was given free shipping to a country that shouldn't be allowed it

  • Hi, on a site I’ve recently launched:
    seventysixdesign.co.nz
    I’ve just had an order to a random country (switzerland) be given free shipping, when free shipping is set to ‘specific countries’ and ‘New Zealand’ only.

    One possible factor is that I use the WooThemes NZ Post Plugin to calculate shipping to other countries. This requires weight and dimensions to be set on the product, which unfortunately wasn’t done on this product. That said, if this is the case, it usually just fails, and says ‘no shipping option set’ and doesn’t let you proceed to pay.

    I haven’t been able to get it to reproduce the problem, with or without weight/dimensions being set. It always either correctly fails, or calculates the shipping correctly.

    I also had it set to default to showing the shipping to New Zealand (which is free), but this always updates to the correct amount for me, once you enter your shipping details.

    The fact that I can’t make it do it for me is good I guess, but it’s a worry that it could happen again at random.

    Does anyone have any idea what could be going on?

    Thanks!
    Dean.

    Was the shipping method ID in the order actually ‘free_shipping’ or was it some other rate from NZ post or other? Were the shipping and billing addresses the same?

    What about user agent? (see custom fields section).

    Hi Mike, thanks for replying.
    The order definitely says free shipping, rather than ‘Via New Zealand Post’ as it does on other orders.
    Shipping + Billing addresses are essentially the same.
    And I’m not sure how to find the user agent. I went into the custom fields in the order, and it only had info from paypal: Name, type and fees.

    Thanks!
    Dean.

    I’d get your install updated to 2.5.3 and then attempt to reproduce with test orders. I’ve tried myself and couldn’t get around the restrictions.

    Okay, will do.
    Thanks for your help.
    I’ll reply back here if I get anywhere with it.
