Hi @midey22.

I assume you have:

– A shipping class created, let’s say “somewhere-free”
– The product Nike shoe associated to this shipping class
– A shipping zone “California”
– Then, inside this shipping zone, a Fish and Ships method inside

On this shipping method, (I suggest you name it Free Shipping), must be a rule that says:

– In shipping class (select the shipping class “somewhere-free”) > cost 0 (leave as is)

…in the bottom of the method, select the checkbox “Zero shipping rate calculation will offer free shipping.”

That’s all.

Please, tell me if it works
Kind regards,

Hi, @stratoextra.

Thanks for your notice. We’re sorry about! …just now we’re waiting the german review/translation from a native guy. Hope soon they will be corrected.

Meanwhile, please, delete the german files on your installation:

wp-content/plugins/fish-and-ships/languages/fish-and-ships-de_DE.mo
wp-content/plugins/fish-and-ships/languages/fish-and-ships-de_DE.po

…and you will get the plugin in english.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience, I will back here when the texts has been corrected!!!

Hi @midney22!

in short: yes… ??

…WooCommerce manage the shipping zones itself, not the shipping methods*. There is: if you need to discrimiate your customers per zones,
you must create this zones before on Woocommerce > Settings > Shipping, and then, place shipping methods on every one.

The shipping zones must be set from closer to wide, for example, let’s say there is two cities with different parcel treatment, for any reason,
and California has different treatment as rest of US:

1. San Francisco

2. Washington

3. California

3. USA

4. World Wide

For every customer address, the methods of ONLY the first shipping zone that matches will be offered. For a guy of SF, only the methods of shipping zone #1, not #3 or #4

There is: on every shipping zone, you must add all the shipping methods that you want (tipically, some methods will be repeated).

Can do you read more about here: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/setting-up-shipping-zones/

…and if you need to set distinct shipping rates per product, not based on objective criteria like size, weight, category, tag or price, (with Fish and Ships you can set simple or complex rules with all of them),
you must create shipping classes and set one of them for every product.

(* well, older releases of woocommerce, leave the shipping zones to the shipping methods, but we’re talking of obsolete releases of WC)

Please, confirm if this solve your question

Hi Joseph, glad to help!

About “All grouped as one”: sorry, my mistake! …as you said, the cart products must be get grouped to compare products quantity!

Kind regards,
Carles.

Hi Joseph!

Sure, there is more than one way to do this, but the simplest are:

Rule #1 [Always] [2$ * qty] (as you have now)

Rule #2 [Cart Items] MIN (>=) 1 MAX (<=) 1 [10$ once]
Rule #3 [Cart Items] MIN (>=) 2 MAX (<=) 2 [8$ once]
Rule #4 [Cart Items] MIN (>=) 3 MAX (<=) [leave blank, no max] [6$ once]

Please, set this options to:

Group by [for all selectors] => None [no grouping]
Calculation type => Charge all matching rules

With it, it will calculate:

1 product: 2$ + 10$
2 products: 4$ + 8$
3 products: 6$ + 6$
4 products: 8$ + 6$
n products: (n*2$) + 6$

Hi!

The same with Fish and Ships. Just opened a topic about:
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/fatal-error-conflict-with-fish-and-ships/

The fatal error occurs on 3.15.0 and 3.16.0. Downgrading Flexible Shipping to 3.14.4 all works fine.

The best,
Carles Martin.

Hi!

After digging a bit, I found the origin of the issue. Recent changes on Flexible Shipping, makes it incompatible with Fish and Ships. I asked about to the Flexible shipping guys.

Meanwhile: The fatal error occurs on 3.15.0 and 3.16.0. Downgrading Flexible Shipping to 3.14.4 all works fine.

I will return to this soon, with a definitive solution.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

Hi, @kingdombonsai!

Please, do one thing before, check other things:

Delete the fish and ships plugin and re-install again, or overwrite the files through FTP.

If you do it in the FTP way, please, be sure the files are in the WP logic folder tree:
wp-content/plugins/fish-and-ships/

PD: Are you using the free or the pro version of Fish and Ships?

Thank you very much for your words!

Hi @pascal77, in our roadmap there is planned to add new selection chriteria, cost manipulation and special actions soon, but I can’t give you a date (maybe 1/2 weeks) and can’t tell you what of this options will be released only on the premium version.

However, you can set a flat price (zero or whatever you want) if the cart price exceeds X amount, not so inctuitive, but it should work as you expect:

1. Set the “Group-by” option as “all grouped as one”

2. Add a new rule as Rule #1 (you can drag it over the rules you have now), select the criteria “Price”, put on the MIN field the amount you want to trigger the flat cost, leave the MAX field blank, and put 0 or whatever amout you want as “(once)”. Then, add an special action: “Ignore below rules”.

…that’s all! the X cart price will trigger the #1 rule, set cost as 0 or whatever, and the special action will skip all the other rules. The less-priced carts will skip Rule #1 and follow the other ones you’ll placed below.

Please, tell me if it does the trick.
