    hi,

    I’ve been trying to set up fish and ships on a site. I’m trying to prevent shipping of a particular shipping class to a certain shipping zone.

    eg. items in clothing shipping class can not be shipped to the USA (costs too expensive to be worthwhile, so want to turn this off).

    When I apply the rule and set the special action to abort it seems to be right but I can still order products from the clothing class when I set the shipping address to the USA.

    Is the fish and ships rule meant to override the existing shipping methods available? Or do I have to replace all the existing shipping methods and set them all up in fish and ships?

    Hi, @fatherb!

    Every Fish and Ships method can abort itself only. *

    To achieve what you need, you must define all shipping methods (at least for USA) with Fish and Ships, and put on everyone a rule to abort if there are clothes on cart.

    …is there any rate calculation that you can’t achieve with Fish and Ships? (if this is the case, please, open another thread about, asking for the configuration needed).

    On the other hand, if you still want/need use another shipping method for USA without own-abort function, you can try a 3rd party plugin that locks shipping methods conditionally. As far I know, there are one on woocommerce official repository, but I never used it: https://woocommerce.com/products/conditional-payment-methods-for-woocommerce/

    * There are an exception: on Fish and Ships Pro, you can override all the other methods on free shipping (0 calculated rate) case. But this isn’t what you need.

    Thanks for the reply. Most appreciated. I’ll rebuild the rules in fish and ships and see how we go.
