We need an important function in the shipments

[javier]

Hi friends

There is a small missing in the shipping options
In Mexico, shipments are based on weight, for example sending a product costs the following:

0.01 kg – 1 kg = 10 usd
1.01 kg – 2 kg = 12.5 usd
2.01 kg – 3 kg = 15 usd
3.01 kg – 4 kg = 17 usd
.
.
.

The idea is that each seller can add the costs according to the weight of their product, in such a way that when adding the products of the same seller to the cart the total weight is added and with it the value of the shipment can be calculated

For example
Product A= 1.500 kg
Producto B= 0.300 kg
product C= 1.750 kg

The customer buys the product a, b and c and woocommerce must add the weight of the 3 to calculate the shipping cost.
If we calculate the weight of the 3 products, we would have:
1.500 kg + 0.300 + 1.750 = Total 3.550 kg

According to the table of costs previously stated, the cost of sending this order would be: 17 usd
This shipping cost must be calculated automatically according to the calculation of the sum of the weights of each product purchased.

Currently I have only found a plugin that does it, could be based on it to achieve it or help me with a customization to make it compatible with your plugin.

I share them with your documentation

if it generates some extra cost, no problem, I hope you can help me friends

thanks!!

Hello,
Woocomerce by default doesn’t support weight based shipping cost calculation. It can be achieved by shipping class in products but according to your requirement, you are looking to calculate the shipping cost of all the products together adding the weight of all the products together, this will be a custom development work. I guess you are looking to calculate this costs vendor specific ie weights of all the products of each of the vendors will be added separately and the cost will be calculated separately for each vendor right? Moreover, will the vendors be able to set their own weight based cost?
Thank You.

Hi. Thanks for the reply.
That’s right, the shipping companies work with prices based on the weight of the package. Adding that functionality would make your marketplace a very complete tool.

I understand that the development of this feature can generate a cost and I think it is fair. I hope you could send me a quote to my email. This is the last function I need to launch my marketplace to the market, I hope you can help me achieve it.

Without a doubt they are the best option, I have all their plugins and I must say they do not stop surprising me.

Thanks for everything
