Usability Seems Horrible

Hi Ken!
We Appologize for the inconvenience you had.
1) I will take into consideration that in next update of the plugin it show’s the error or show’s it to user/admin that google api key has some error or something. Thanks for letting me know.

2) The plugin does not show up in the shipping method instead it has it’s own side menu named as “WC Distance Calculator” from there you can see all the settings.

3) For the Documentation link as you specified i understand it does take you to the sales page because it has documentation and sales in one page of the website and the sales button is at last. Please let me know what am i missing and i’ll add it in the documentaion as it would be really helpfull for other users.

And in last our plugin has distance based like from 1KM to 10KM price is 1$ and from 10KM to 20KM price is 2$

You can change the numbers from admin side but this is a PRO feature.

Thank you.

Thanks for the great response. Just understand that I am managing a project with some 82 tasks and some 200+ subtasks, and Delivery Distance Calculation is less than 0.5% of my project. I actually could not have less interest in it, I just want it to work.

The other plugin adds to my Shipping Methods, and seems to just integrate more cleanly. It uses the shipping address, and does not require entering a THIRD address, the delivery address…which is some how different from the default Shipping address somehow?

And, reactivating Distance Rate Shipping, it just started working again, cleaning integrating with the default Shipping address, connecting to the API, and calculating shipping that adds cleanly to my order.

At this point, I am choosing to negotiate with the authors of the other plugin to add the multi-distance range functionality rather than deal with yours.

I could put some colorful adjectives in front of “horrible”, but will leave it at that.

I would be happy to test some new version, once you have some basic functionality like verifying the API key, and maybe cleaner integration. But I am going to be even less patient, for suffering with this version.

I actually hope that helps you focus on usability, rather than the current focus, which seems to be…how many features can we cram onto the screen?

You could consider, too, once the plugin works, and by that I mean paste the API key and it just works…changing your demo mode to allow maybe 5 Pro calculations, although I guess that would lead to more theft and nulling of your code, but you are already in GPL land. I think it would be a lot less annoying for people evaluating the plugin.

Hi! I’ll surely take that into consideration

1) API Key responses
2) Will Give option/checkbox on checkout page to add the wooocommerce billing address as one address

And It’s totally upto you to choose other plugin rather then this plugin ,
And for the word “horrible” if that is your honest review i won’t mind that.

And for demo for sure i’ll take that into consideration too.
Again thank you for all the suggestions i appreciate that and i will update the plugin with these features/error handling.
Let me know if you need more assistance/help.

Best Regards

I’m closing this as it seems to be resolved
