So if you configured shipping in HikaShop, and that you click on the Pay with PayPal Express Checkout button before the checkout, the shipping will be ignored. If you need the shipping to be calculated by HikaShop and added to the order before the payment on PayPal, then you can use the standard PayPal plugin and use the checkout of HikaShop. You can also use The Express checkout payment method but in that case, you want to configure your HikaShop checkout workflow in a way that the user can only see the "pay with paypal express checkout" button after the shipping method selection has been done.
