Hi Dan,
Is there a custom fix possible to change the sort order of the shipping methods?
I found this snippet on the forum and hoped it could be changed a bit to solve this issue:
add_filter('woocommerce_package_rates', 'wf_sort_shipping_methods', 10, 2);
function wf_sort_shipping_methods($available_shipping_methods, $package)
{
// Arrange shipping methods as per your requirement
$sort_order = array(
'wf_shipping_ups' => array(),
'wf_shipping_usps' => array(),
'free_shipping' => array(),
'local_pickup' => array(),
'legacy_flat_rate' => array(),
);
// unsetting all methods that needs to be sorted
foreach($available_shipping_methods as $carrier_id => $carrier){
$carrier_name = current(explode(":",$carrier_id));
if(array_key_exists($carrier_name,$sort_order)){
$sort_order[$carrier_name][$carrier_id] = $available_shipping_methods[$carrier_id];
unset($available_shipping_methods[$carrier_id]);
}
}
// adding methods again according to sort order array
foreach($sort_order as $carriers){
$available_shipping_methods = array_merge($available_shipping_methods,$carriers);
}
return $available_shipping_methods;
}
In my case I only need the local_pickup and the weight based shipping methods.
But I’m not an expert in code.. so hopefully someone else is. ??
