WC Tiered Shipping

Description

WordPress administrative users can create a tiered flat rate shipping fee based on the total number of items in a WooCommerce cart. The store administrator can choose to apply this shipping method to all allowed countries that the store may ship to or only specific countries.

There are two tiers in this shipping method:

• Base shipping fee: This is the base (default) flat shipping fee that is applied automatically to the cart total for any number of items.

• Additional shipping fee for tiers: This is the additional shipping fee that is added to the base fee if the number of items in the user’s cart exceeds a specified number. This tiered fee can either be a flat fee, meaning that it is applied to carts of any size above the specified tier quantity, or a progressive fee, meaning that the tier quantity is used as a multiplier to the tiered fee.

Installation

1. Upload the plugin to your WordPress installation and activate the plugin.

2. In the WordPress admin, go to “WooCommerce” -> “Settings”, then click on the “Shipping” tab.

3. At the top of the Shipping settings page, click on “Tiered flat rate shipping”.

4. Enable this shipping option and enter your shipping settings.

FAQ

I updated to 3.1 and the plugin is not working quite right. What’s going on?

I have noticed some weirdness after making the necessary maintenance changes to make the plugin work with WordPress 5.*. Please go to the settings page for the shipping method and click “Save Changes”. You do not need to actually change anything. Just re-saving the settings seems to clear things up.

What version of the plugin should I use if I am still on WordPress 4.*?

You probably want to stay on plugin version 3.0 in this case. However, I strongly recommend staying current with WordPress core and upgrading to 5.*.

Kudos to the developer. This plugin was very useful.

Works perfectly as described

Mike OToole September 3, 2016

It does exactly as described and works perfectly. To many plugins on this site are dumbed down or trials as bait for premium versions. This one is not of that ilk. Very pleased with the result. Setup was as simple as choosing the tier and clicking the Save button.
