I'm using the manual plugin and I was wondering if you can give me some guidance as to how to set-up the appropriate shipping price.

Some items are light and some are heavy. Some things can fit into a small letter envelope, some in a courier envelope and some in a large envelope.

I'm not sure how to set it up so that what they purchase they will be charged based on the size of the envelope I need to use or am I going about this all wrong?

Thank you!

Hi again,

The shipping will be based on weight using a minimum/maximum weight to determine the shipping price. For example, something like:

- up to 1 lb = $5
- 1.01 lb - 5 lbs = $10
- 5.01 lbs - 10 lbs = $15
- 10.01 lbs and up = $20

We also want the user to be able to select what shipping service to use and pay based on the shipping service they choose. So for example,

Courier - $15
Regular Mail - $5
Snail Mail - $0

How do I set it up so that is shows the shipping price and in addition get the user to chose a shipping service and calculate both?

Thanks!!

Hi,

You need to create several manual shipping methods. One for each weight range and each shipping service.
So if you have 4 weight ranges and 3 service types, you'll have to create 12 shipping methods.
In each one, you'll enter his weight range with the "minimum/maximum weight" restriction settings and it's name (type of service) and corresponding price.
The system will filter automatically the relevant shipping methods on the checkout and let the user select among the ones available.
