Thank you so much! =)

Ideally I would love something at the bottom of the ‘Settings’ tab so I could do something like this: https://bolderelements.net/img/new-wcml-option.png

Is there a filter that runs when things are saved too? So I can make sure to save my extra fields at the appropriate time?

Thanks so much for your consideration!!

Sorry, I missed the response notification. Something like that is definitely very close! It puts my field outside the <form> tag though which isn’t preferable. Then I’d have to have my own separate form. It’s also under the ‘multi-currency’ tab which may be a bit confusing for some users as the two are not really related. If it’s my only option I can make it work, but I am interested to know if you have heard anything further ??

Hhhmmm, I cannot seem to replicate the issue on my own server. As a fresh install, it separates my cart based on class. Have you tried saving your settings to see if that fixes the problem? The default is Per Item, so it sounds like it’s not finding the setting that tells it you opted into shipping classes.

The settings are not directly linked to the products, only the Shipping settings. It’s purpose is to group your products together for shipping purposes, so there are really no additional product settings needed. The preferred way to do this is to use shipping classes, but this is a built in WooCommerce feature. The classes can be setup from your WooCommerce settings page, and then assigned to your products from the Products edit page or list of Products. You can learn more about shipping classes here:
https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/product-shipping-classes/

Once you have determined which items belong in which group, you can setup your packages to split based on Shipping Class. Then your cart should look like the screenshot in the banner for this plugin, showing one ‘Shipping’ line for each applicable group in the order summary.

I’m sorry to hear you are having trouble with this but I would be happy to look into it. Have you selected specific shipping methods for each of your packages or have you left the table of checkboxes blank? Sometimes it’s more reliable to give explicit permission for which methods to use in which packages.

I’m afraid I haven’t found an issue with this on my own site so it would be helpful to know about your setup in hopes of trying to recreate the problem.

Thank you

Hi Linda, I am sorry I did not see your message sooner. This is indeed something we are looking to add in the upcoming update. It was a slight oversight on our part to assume you wouldn’t have or want to control non-class items as well. The changes to the code to make this possible are pretty simple, but to make it even easier I uploaded version 1.0.3 which contains just this change. More features and control will be coming in version 1.1, but I hope this is able to help until then!

An update is under development right now, and the ability to set the package names in the settings page will definitely be available! Until then you can use a code snippet, however, to change the package titles. There is a tutorial on our support site that offers some sample code. The code checks which shipping class ID is found in the package, and changes it to match the Shipping Class title. If you want to change it to something else you can always add an ‘IF’ statement in there that changes the title for specific shipping class IDs found.

I hope that can help until the next version is released but if you have any questions about it, do let me know!

That’s odd but I’m glad you got it working! Must have been a glitch with the settings but at least it’s sorted out now. I hope it works well for you now but if you run into any trouble again, please don’t hesitate to open another ticket ??

One more thing to note: There is an issue with the ‘Enable’ checkbox in the settings. As soon as you activate the plugin, the feature will be enabled as there is currently no way to disable it without that setting functioning. Please ensure that you have configured this plugin as well to ensure that is not the problem. Having it enabled with no settings can also cause a problem, but is easily resolved by simply saving the settings page.

Sounds like a compatibility issue. Have you tried changing your theme temporarily to see if it resolves the problem? This plugin merely provides a settings page for a built in WooCommerce feature that would otherwise need a code snippet to activate. My initial thought is that maybe your theme’s WooCommerce templates are not setup to support this feature, but I can’t be certain without knowing more about your site or maybe taking a look at the page when the problem is present.

I’m afraid I do not know why it would do that without more information. Have you turned on the method’s debug mode so that it prints out the information it is receiving such as weight and dimensions? You can verify this information against your products’ weights and dimensions. Have you also tried temporarily disabling this plugin to see if the results change in the same scenario?

I can’t imagine how this plugin could alter its results so I do not have any ideas for you at the moment. The overall functionality is provided by WooCommerce, this plugin simply adds a user interface to make it easier to setup without coding knowledge. It’s only purpose is to group your products together so you can use different shipping methods for different groups. Are all items still listed beneath each shipping section in the cart summary?

Hi Daniel, I am happy to hear you have been happily using this plugin! Unfortunately this message is a known issue that I thought was resolved in the last update but apparently it was adjusted just afterward. The good news is that it is just a message about syntax and not an indication that anything is wrong or broken. It’s a new message to PHP that simply tells the developer it didn’t like the way they wrote something in the code.

In order to really handle this function properly, I had to make adjustments to a few lines, so rather than detail each change I simply released a new minor version update. You should receive a notification in your dashboard soon if you have not already.

I hope this helps, but if there’s anything else I can help with, please let me know!

I’m sorry I missed your message and didn’t respond sooner. I read through it a couple times but I am still unsure, are you having a problem with the plugin? There are actually no vendor settings with this plugin. It’s something I want to do in the future, but at the moment it can only split based on item or class. So in your scenario above, I would expect two packages, but you are saying you receive three instead? I have never seen that before.
