Hi,
If I remember correctly there was an option to select the default shipping method in the past.

Now I cannot find it anymore and I have a customer that wants to have a different shipping method selected as dedault which is not the cheapest one.

Any tips on how to achieve this ?

Hi,

The "default" shipping method is the first one in the list of available shipping methods the user will see on the frontend.
So you can just reorder the shipping methods in the backend to change the default one.

Oh what a donkey am I.

Tried 10 times ... must have been caching.
And I was doubting myself the whole time because this is exactly what I did ;-)

Thanks

The thing is that the first shipping method is selected the first time the cart is loaded and as long as the selected shipping method is still available. So, if you change the order of the shipping methods, you'll still see the same shipping method selected because it was already selected before.
You need to empty the cart, or login / logout, or try with another browser, or in incognito mode, if you want to check the difference.
