Dear Support,
I have to add an additional manual shipping method (ABC) to the existing methods: It has a fixed price (XX) + an additional fixed cost (YY). So shipping price would be XX+YY. Using formula is not an option, because it displays the sum of the two prices, but customer wants to display XX and YY separately (but for the same shipping method). Like:
o Shipping method ABC: XX plus additional shipping cost: YY.
Is this possible?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,

No, this is not possible.
However, there are two things you might not know which might be able to somehow help you:
- In the menu System>Warehouse, you can configure warehouses. In each product, you can select a warehouse, and then in each shipping method you can select a warehouse. When you do so, during the checkout, the products in the cart will be grouped by warehouse and each warehouse will have its own shipping method selection. So with this, you can have several shipping methods applied to the same cart, which will then be summed up to make the total shipping fee.
Now this can only happen in very specific cases so I doubt that it would apply to your situation, even though you didn't explain if your shipping methods have some kind of restrictions, etc.
- On our marketplace, we sell the cart fee plugin: www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/279-cart-fee.html
This plugin can add extra fees based on formulas. Now, this plugin can't have formulas based on the shipping method selected. However, if you know a bit of PHP, you could modify it to add an extra fee based on the selected shipping method.

Thank you for these options.
Warehouse is not needed, because the new shipping method is applicable for each product when this shipping method is selected. Customer only wants to show that the shipping price (XX) includes an extra fee (YY).
If there is no better solution, we can write this information in the Description, but it would be nice if it could also be seen on the invoice.

Hello,

I invite you to consider the “Cart Fee” plugin, because it can at least partly allow you to satisfy part of your needs, here in our Marketplace .
Regards

Hi,
Can this Cart Fee plugin configured in a way that the fee is added only when a specific shipping method is selected?
Thank you.

Hi,

Yes. The plugin now has a condition setting so that you can add fees only if the condition is met. And you can use the {cart.shipping.shipping_id} tag to place a condition on the shipping method selected by the user.
