Thanks so much @glennym and @xyon81 – that worked!
Do you know if changing the site to https will adversely affect it / traffic in any way?

I am having the same problem. Just updated today to latest WordPress 4.4 and latest WooCommerce version 2.4.12

I am including a link to a screen shot I created showing that on both product listings page of Dashboard on back end and on each product listing page
images appear broken but are thankfully just fine on the front end for the public. Hoping my screenshot helps. Thanks!

Thank you. I have confirmed it is NOT theme related. I followed your instructions and switched to Twenty Twelve active and still defaults to Express Mail International on Checkout page. See screenshot of 2012 active theme here https://starwedd.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/2012-theme.pdf

Again, prior to the WC update yesterday, this was never an issue.
I don’t know how other people have not noticed this now that I tested on Twenty Twelve theme and confirmed it is not related to my theme.

Thanks Mike. I see what you are saying, however I have been using WC for over 2 years with same exact shipping options and I had no problems up until I updated WC to latest version today. I must therefore logically believe this is associated with the update. I am wondering if other people with similar setup have not yet discovered this perhaps?

I did try the hide shipping cost option until an address is entered, but guess what happens. I run a test order, no shipping cost appears so I type an address and nothing comes up for shipping rates, then customer is prompted to proceed to PayPal without knowing what the shipping cost is! Something is just not right.
I wish I had waited a while longer to update.

Another aspect that tells me something is not right is that default country for bill to and ship to comes up as United States however the international shipping option appears, and once I refresh the browser it displays flat USA rate correctly. Again this all began today after updating.

I hope someone else having this same issue can chime in as well.

Thank you – I have done as you indicated however this is really a problem because now it is adding sales tax automatically and I only collect sales tax for North Carolina orders. I have now had to disable sales tax altogether so as not to scare away non North Carolina customers. Also, now that the Flat USA rate appears by having set the default tax address to store base address, it is appearing for anyone who is shopping internationally therefore they will seem to think that 1st class $6.99 is an option! Oh what a mess. I hope you can find a solution.

I look forward to any updates.
Kind regards.

Thank you kindly! In Tax Settings – I have never before selected any “default location” please see screenshot here https://starwedd.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/WC-Tax-Setting.jpg

I have never used a shipping method plugin – just the built-in shipping options provided with WooCommerce – please see my set up screenshot here

Regards.

Anyone please? This is very upsetting. I have tried everything I can think of. No matter how many times I make my FLAT rate be the default, it will NOT show up as default. Seems as if default option for shipping is being ignored and International Shipping is being selected.
I have cleared cache over and over and problem persists.

For example here is my site link
Any help would be appreciated

Please add any simple product to shopping cart and see that International Express shipping rate is shown by default even though on backend I have WOOCOMMERCE Shipping Option Default set to Flat Rate USA.

Notice that once you refresh the shopping cart page, the correct Flat Rate USA shipping options appear.

I am going out of my mind trying to figure out what the “bug” is after the update!

To further explain, I have FLAT rate shipping as the default ship method for United States orders, and have international delivery and local delivery options. Before this last update, I never had any problems as the DEFAULT ship method WAS FLAT rate option but now it automatically assumes any order is an international order and puts in the INTERNATIONAL option as default on the checkout page even though I have double-checked that my FLAT rate shipping is the Default in my WooCommerce settings!

If I refresh the browser on the Checkout page it changes it to the FLAT rate, but I am going to lose orders when USA customers see a shipping rate of $58.95 which is only for international orders – my USA customers will NOT know or think of refreshing their browsers. This should not behave this way after the update.

Please advise on possible solutions asap please. Thank you.
