I’m afraid very little of this is doable with this plugin, but I do have a more advanced shipping plugin that will be able to handle much more of this. I would check out the Table Rate Shipping for WooCommerce plugin. With that plugin you could set a minimum purchase price to receive a delivery cost as well as change the price depending on how much they have ordered. The only trouble you may have is the 5km distance rule. None of my plugins use distances, however the Table Rate plugin could use postal codes if that’s helpful.

It’s not really possible with this plugin. I would recommend viewing my other shipping plugin for WooCommerce. It has zone support so you will be able to setup different costs based on location from a single plugin.

Many thanks for the fast reply!

And with that plugin, is it possible to do what I’ve mentioned above? Or work something that will help me get near there?

Thanks again, André

Absolutely, you can set it up just as you described. You’ll need two zones, one for each part of Portugal, and then two rows in the table for each zone (that’s a total of 4 rows). Each row stands for a different rate and you can setup a condition based on the subtotal of the cart to determine which one the customer qualifies for.

This plugin cannot, but my other shipping plugin can and it looks like you have asked this question there as well:

I would check out this tidbit of code from WooThemes. If you read the comments in the code, it will walk you through how to hide one shipping method (or all) when a specific one is available.

You can find the shipping method IDs on the main page of the shipping tab. In the list of shipping methods on this page, the ID can be found beneath the title.

It worked perfect!!! Thanks my friend, really appreciate the help.

Absolutely, glad I could help!

There are a few fields above the table that can override the shipping price. Have you entered anything into these values? If not, please respond with a link to a screenshot so that I can see your settings and be able help you better. Thank you

I’m afraid this shipping method is designed to be very simple. If you need to group your items together and assign a different shipping scheme to each group, the my Table Rate Plugin would be better.

The best I could do for you with just this plugin, is to run two instances of the plugin, one for each class, and then use my “Multiple Packages” plugin that would split up the shipping options so instead of having one select box you would have two when the customer orders both products. If you want to go this route, please send me a message through my profile (and mention this post) and I will provide the file you need to create a second instance of this method.

Yes, this plugin works with ranges, it is just setup a little differently. However, it only returns one rate no matter where the customer is located. The table rate plugin you mentioned in your second post is much more advanced. It is also setup the way you mentioned before, by setting up a Min, Max, and Shipping Price. If you purchase the table rate plugin you will not need this one (cart based). It can handle anything this one will, plus more, and it will also be able to manage the shipping for multiple countries.

You have been precious. For having both (the function of the price range and international transport one) I only have to buy the second plugin. Is it correct? Thanks a lot

Yes, correct. You can set up the Table Rate plugin just like the Cart Based, except with Table Rate you would have the ability to setup different ranges and costs for the two shipping zones you would have.

This plugin cannot change the rate based on the customer’s shipping address, however I do have one plugin that can but it looks like you have already posted a question there.

You can definitely setup this plugin to have a minimum. If your rate has a Minimum subtotal of £10, then the rate will not appear until that minimum is met. If no shipping rate is returned, then the customer cannot continue checking out until that minimum is met.

I’m afraid I do not have any responsibility over transactions on this website. You would have to speak with envato’s support time about this.

This one could, but only if you input the price for every item. It wouldn’t be very efficient. My Table Rate plugin would be able to do this in one line, however, so I would recommend taking a look at this.

I think I may know the issue here. It is something that has been fixed for an upcoming update but it is likely the problem here. For whatever reason, sometimes WooCommerce, when manually installed, is installed in a folder titled something other than ‘woocommerce’. Currently the plugin looks for it specifically in this folder, so if the title is anything else, the plugin will think WooCommerce does not exist and therefor not properly activate.

There are two ways to fix this temporarily. First, you can rename the WooCommerce folder to ‘woocommerce’. Doing this should not affect anything else. It may temporarily deactivate the plugin, so you will need to login to your dashboard and reactivate it. Second, if you don’t want to do the first, you can modify the plugin. On line 22 you can change the directory path to match the title of your actual WooCommerce folder.

Not yet but it is already added to the short list of additions for the next version. I can try to work on this over the next day or two if that is helpful. The changes will not involve much time.

You need to contact me first. I am not allowed to contact customers until they have emailed me first so I do not have any information for you. Please visit my profile page and send me a message through there.

Hi there. It has been ages, but I have an issue, that has been somewhat annoying me for a while: I can only enter net shipping costs in two figures. This causes a rounding error. E.g.: I want 3.90 gross shipping costs. This means I need to enter 3,645 net costs at 7% VAT. But I can only enter 3,64 (gross: 3,89) or 3,65 (gross: 3,91). Is there any way around this?

Sure, I’ve had a few complaints about this lately so I will be removing the formatting in the next version. The only validation will be to ensure that it is a number. To avoid it for now, you can open up the main file and comment out the following line by adding a double slash (//) to the beginning of the line. This is the line that formats the cost field.

$table_rate_cost[$i] = wc_format_decimal( $table_rate_cost[$i], get_option( 'woocommerce_price_num_decimals' ), false );

If I understand correctly, yes, that sounds doable. Is it an $8 flat rate for the first 3 items? Because this number is not easily divided by 3, you’ll need to do a little extra setup but it’s definitely possible. You can create a handling/base fee for $8, and then say that items 1 – 3 have shipping of $0 (the base fee will cover this one). Then in a second table row, Items 4 – * will have a cost of $0, and in the Bundle column, qty = 3, Cost = 4. That should give you the scenario you are looking for.

I apologize, it looks like I did not update the URL after the upgrade to WC 2.1. Please try again. I have just changed it.

Thank you, I’m glad it could help

I honestly do not know that WooCommerce has this feature. The purpose of a custom order is to be able to customize anything, including the shipping. For example, sometimes your customers have a complex order and they go through you to get a deal that they could not get through the shipping plugin on your site. The ‘Calculate Totals’ button only adds together everything. If I select Flat Rate or another method included, my total still comes up without a shipping cost because I left this field blank.

thanks so much for your reply. yes, i guess i misunderstood how that should work.

I just emailed over the login credentials from the email form on your profile. I didn’t see a PM button. Let me know if you don’t get it! Thanks again

You found the right area. I did receive your email and will respond there when I know more. Thank you!

Turns out this was user error. Bolderelements was a great help and everything is up and running perfectly. Thank you again for your time!

It’s only possible if you set up each row, so no, not necessarily 2X. It would need to be written out something like this:

0+ = X
4+ = Y
8+ = Z

So as long as I write out a rule for each price, up to an arbitrary number of products in the cart, this plugin is suitable?

Yes, correct.
