A shipping method is a set of rules and parameters to calculate the cost of shipping orders to buyers depending on.
The Administration → Shipping & taxes → Shipping methods page contains an editable list of shipping methods present in the store. The following are parameters used to calculate the cost of shipping orders:
Go to Products → Products in the administration panel of your store, then click the + button in the upper right part of the page. The product creation page will open. Configure the required properties of the product. You’ll be able to edit the product properties later at any time. Click the Create button.
Go to Products → Products in the administration panel of your store. Add products and fill in the empty fields. Click Create.
If you plan to have several products with identical properties, you don’t need to create each of them manually. Instead of specifying the product properties each time that you add a new product, you can: Set up one sample product with the common properties. Clone the sample product. Change the names and individual properties of the clone products.
You can edit the properties of a group of products. Go to Products → Products in the administration panel of your store. Select the the products that you’d like to edit by clicking on them. Click Edit selected above the list of products. A pop-up window will open. Tick the checkboxes of the product properties you’d like to edit, then click Modify selected. The selected products and their properties will appear on one page. Edit them, then click the Save button in the top right corner.
Once we receive notification this data is complete, we will activate your shop and you’ll be able to publish shipping methods and products! Congratulations and thank you for joining Operation Local. For any questions regarding setup or in general, email us at opllo@cvky.org.
