Shipping by Rules for WooCommerce
Determine shipping costs according to general conditions (bounds on the order properties). Shipping costs can depend on e.g.: Total amount of the order Total weight of the order Number of articles or different products in the order Volume or minimal and maximal extensions of the products Postal code of the delivery address (the Advanced version also supports alphanumeric postal codes from the UK, Canana and Netherlands) Coupon Code (Advanced version only) The plugin exists in two different versions, this free version, which supports fixed bounds for all properties, and a paid version, which allows all conditions and shipping rules to contain arbitrary mathematical expressions (like an OR operator, multiplication, addition, subtraction, functions like rounding etc.). See the documentation for all the differences. Each rule is described as one line of text with an easy structure (semicolons separate the parts of the rule). For example: Name=Free Shipping; 100<=Amount; 0 Name=Domestic Small; Articles<5; Amount<100; Shipping=1.50 Name=Domestic Standard; Amount<100; Shipping=3.50 This set of rules describes three shipping costs: Orders of 100€ and more are free, otherwise orders with less than five articles have shipping costs of 1.5€, all others 3.50€. Limitations and common misconceptions The plugin is not designed to calculte shipping costs on a per-product level (e.g. it is not possible that Article A has shipping costs of 3€, Article B 5€ and if you order both you pay 8€ shipping) The plugin allows only limited support for category-based shipping. You can only find out if an article from a particular category is in the order, but NOT how many articles from a given category (e.g. it is not possible to have all articles from Category X ship for 3€ and all articles from Category Y ship for 5€) The plugin does NOT sum the results of all rules, but uses the FIRST matching rule it finds. The plugin does NOT use the lowest result of all rules, but it uses the FIRST matching rule it finds. (In particular, if you want to provide free shipping under certain conditions, you usually need to place the rule for free shipping FIRST rather than last, because the last rule will only be used if none of the other rules matches).

CFD Multi-Tiered Shipping For WooCommerce
WordPress administrators can create a multi-tiered flat rate shipping cost based on the total number of items in a WooCommerce cart. The store administrator can choose to apply this shipping method to all available countries or to specific countries. This flexible shipping method provides up to 4 tiers, suitable for USPS flat-rate boxes. Also provided are several large-order shipping cost calculation methods for refining your total shipping costs calculations. By default there are four tiers; 1, 2, 3, 4 – small to large. Tiers 3 and 4 may be disabled if not needed. Examples One of the following examples may help you determine how best to configure the settings to get the results you require. Once you have saved your settings, be sure to look at the review table at the bottom of the settings page to confirm that your settings are calculating the shipping costs as anticipated. Example 1 Default 4-Tier shipping method (all tiers enabled; suitable for USPS flat-rate) Base cost: $0.00 (default) Large Order Shipping Cost Calculation Method: prorate Tier|Max Qty| Cost ----+-------+------ 1 | 2 |$ 5.95 2 | 4 |$12.65 3 | 10 |$15.90 4 | 15 |$17.90 pro| each |$ 1.12 Results Shipping cost for 5 items = $15.90. Shipping cost for 12 items = $17.90. Shipping cost for 20 items = $17.90 + 5 x $1.12. Total cost is $23.50. Example 2 Custom 3-Tier shipping method (tier 4 disabled) Base cost: $0.00 (default) Large Order Shipping Cost Calculation Method: prorate Tier|Max Qty| Cost ----+-------+------ 1 | 10 |$ 7.00 2 | 40 |$21.00 3 | 160 |$42.00 4 | disabled pro| each |$ 2.00 Results Shipping cost for 35 items = $21.00. Shipping cost for 120 items = $42.00. Prorated shipping cost for 200 items = $42.00 + 40 x $2.00. Total cost is $122.00. Note Disabling tier 3 and enabling tier 4 works results in exactly the same cost calculations. Example 3 Default 4-Tier shipping method with free shipping for large orders. Base cost: $2.00 Large Order Shipping Cost Calculation Method: prorate Tier|Max Qty| Cost ----+-------+------ 1 | 15 |$ 5.00 2 | 30 |$10.00 3 | 45 |$15.00 4 | 60 |$20.00 pro| each |$ 0.00 < -- Large orders are free!!!
