Usage

After the store owner sets the plugin settings, the plugin will be able to calculate the shipping fees for customer’s destination shipments.

The plugin’s shipping method doesn’t appear on checkout, until customer fill in the destination country to these that plugin accepts.

If customer fill in an accepted country, the plugin’s shipping method appears in the shipping method list with the shipping cost to this destination.

An autocomplete plugin is recommended to help customer fill in exactly the destination details (address_1, city, postcode)

For shipping countries/zones that are enabled, don’t leave shipping cost fields empty, may cause an error.
