Set Up Flat Rate – Rounding cost on save

Hello @mitsos46,

Hi, I’m trying to set up the flat rate cost on shipping methods and it keeps rounding all numbers and rejects any other character (like [qty]). From 3,30 or 3,30 + ( 2 * [qty] ) to 3,00 for example.

This issue has already been reported to our developers: #42892. We’re sorry for any inconvenience that it may have caused.

At the time being, we don’t have an estimate on when a fix will be released. To stay updated, I suggest subscribing to the report from the sidebar.

As a temporary workaround, you can revert back to version 8.3.1. Plugins like WP-Rollback can make this process easier.

Let us know if you have any other questions!

Thank you!

I there any way to change the cost values manually? From the database for example.

Hey @mitsos46,

Yes, you can manually change the cost values directly from the database. However, please note that this is not typically recommended as it can lead to unexpected issues if not done correctly.

Here are the steps to do this:

1. Access your WordPress database via phpMyAdmin (or a similar tool provided by your hosting company).
2. Navigate to the wp_postmeta table.
3. Search for the meta_key _cost (this is the key for the shipping cost).
4. Once you’ve found the correct row, you can edit the meta_value to change the cost.

Please remember to backup your database before making any changes.

If you’re uncomfortable with this, I recommend waiting for the fix or using the suggested workaround.

Let us know if you have any further questions!

Thank you so much!!!
