[Plugin: WooCommerce] Shipping classes and Flat rate

    The client of the website I am currently working on want a fixed shipping price for the products he sells. Each products have a different shipping cost so I planned on using the Flat rate shipping option and setting up many different Shipping Classes. That way, when adding a new product, the right Shipping class could be selected.

    The problem I have is that the shipping cost of a single item is not multiplied by the amount of product in the cart.

    Ex. :
    T-shirt XYZ -> shipping = 10$
    Pants XZY -> shipping = 15$

    If I add a t-shirt and pants to my cart, the shipping total is at 25$ which is right.
    If I only add 2 t-shirts to my cart, the shipping total is at 10$ which is NOT right since it should be at 20$.

    The exemple above may sound weird because you would not want to pay 2 x the shipping price for items like a t-shirt but the website I am working on is selling really large items like car pars and things like that.

    Any help would be appreciated !

    Hi, WooCommerce default Flat rate shipping method is not flexible to solve this use case. It will show the shipping cost purely based on the shipping class, not based on the quantity of the items added to the cart.
    One possible solution is to use table rate shipping. You will be able to solve this use case using Table rate shipping pro plugin.
