Adds shipping methods to WooCommerce where the price depends on cart weight, total or other rules. Table rates are set per zone, and a shipping method can be duplicated or imported and exported. It suits shops with simple weight or value-based shipping that WooCommerce does not cover. Limits: shipping class rules and some cost options need Flexible Shipping PRO, and the plugin offers an opt-in usage tracker.
