Shipping cost calculation – multiples of 2

    Hi,

    At the moment we have the formula below that adds x and then multiplies by quantity, but we have worked out that the delivery cost is the same for 2, and then multiples there of, so 2 would be the same as 1, 3 then would be x + x and then 4 the same cost, does that make sense.

    So just wondered with the calculation below how we could change it to allow this to happen.

    0 + ( 80 * [qty] )

    Hi there,

    If I understand correctly, you want:
    quantity 1-2: $x
    3-4: $2x
    5-6: $3x

    If that’s correct, it doesn’t look like that would be possible with the built-in functionality for setting prices on the Flat Rate method. You can read about setting advanced costs here:
    https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/flat-rate-shipping/#advanced-costs

    You can use that [qty] placeholder to multiply a cost by the quantity… However, it wouldn’t work for setting those ranges (1-2, 3-4, etc) like you are trying to do. For that, you would need something like Table Rate Shipping, to set up a table of rates:
