WPCargo Shipment Rate 7.3.8
WPCargo Shipment Rate is a WordPress plugin that lets you define origin/destination zones and real-time shipping rates in a WooCommerce store. It offers accurate rate results based on weight and dimensions, with customizable search forms and templates for easy updates from a child theme.
Description
WPCargo Shipment Rate is a WordPress plugin for WooCommerce stores that generates shipping rate results based on the origin and destination entered by the customer. It helps solve the common problem of showing inaccurate or generic delivery costs by calculating rates using shipment details like weight and dimensions.
The plugin includes a Search Rates form where you can define your locations, zones, and shipping rate rules, then display real-time rate outcomes before checkout. You can also override the search form and search results templates through your child theme, so updates to core code and future plugin versions are easier to manage.
