    Hi, as title, I’d like to have all items in a specific category with free shipping.

    Also, if one of these items is in the basket, free shipping applies to the whole order.

    I had a go(!) – not certain it was correct – as it seems to then show 2 x shipping options at checkout?

    Many thanks in advance for your help and support.

    Hi there!

    Setting up free shipping for a specific category, with free shipping applying to the entire order when an item from that category is in the cart, is a great idea!

    To achieve this, you can use a third-party plugin that enables conditional shipping methods. One option you might find helpful is the Conditional Shipping for WooCommerce plugin.

    If this doesn’t fully meet your needs, custom coding may be another way to accomplish your goal.

    However, please note that we do not provide support for custom code. You may want to hire a developer or seek assistance from the community.

    Hello itsmefti,

    Thank you for your reply.

    Appreciate your feedback regarding the plugin we suggested.

    A great way to achieve this is by using Shipping Classes along with the Free Shipping Method.
    You can assign a shipping class to the products in the free shipping category, and then configure a Free Shipping method specifically for that class.

    For detailed steps, you can refer to these guides:

    Best regards.
