In Woocommerce, when I add multiple products in cart, the shipping only applies to to 1 product. How should I change that to apply the cost to each item?

Like in the following image, the shipping cost for printer is applied but the LCD monitor is not.

In the Woocommerce Shipping Settings for "Flat rate" Shipping Method, there is many ways to get dynamic settings based on:

  • Item quantity, using [qty] argument
  • Total item cost, using [cost] argument
  • A fee, using [fee] argument with additional parameters percent, min_fee and max_fee

You can also use +, -, * and / operators and parenthesis.

Here are some example:

  1. [qty]*2 - Cost by item
  2. 4+([qty]*2.5) - Initial cost with an additional cost by item
  3. [fee percentage='10' min_fee='' max_fee='20'] - Percentage fee limited to a max amount
  4. [fee percentage='10' min_fee='4' max_fee=''] - Percentage fee with a minimal cost
