I have the same problem. I’ve read all the other threads about adding code to the php file and that’s way over my head. I’ve done all the other setting suggestions but the code’s beyond me. Any help?
Hi all,
I’m able to get Local Pickup working on my site:
See checkout: http://cld.wthms.co/HXY/2kHGRPVd
These are my local pickup settings: http://cld.wthms.co/Wj6Q/WgsdNH7i
And these are my tax settings: http://cld.wthms.co/1hl1Z/1hCQWVLl
The tax won’t calculate until the user enters an address. What you can do is set a default address or use geolocation in your General WooCommerce settings: http://cld.wthms.co/mXK7/1gvQUxs5
I hope this helps!
Thank you so much, Danny but still no luck. My windows look just like your screenshots except I didn’t set “The Rest of the World” to be “Local Pickup”. Setting “Local Pickup” in “The Rest of the World” did not result in having a radio button option at checkout. I finally settled on one shipping zone (US Domestic) and entered a “Local Pickup” option. I get two radio buttons then; one for local pickup and one for shipping. When shipping is selected, sales tax appears (if you live in my state). When “Local Pickup” is selected, sales tax disappears. And I made sure that “Local Pickup” had the “sales tax added” in the shipping zone window drop down. I just can’t figure it out. Right now I put in a local address for the buyer…but no luck. I might add that I have purchased a plugin to calculate shipping from AuctionInc. I went to them first for solutions but they said it was a WooCommerce issue and not a conflict with them.
Local pickup should use your store’s base location for taxes. Since you can only set a country/state for the base location, make sure you have a tax rate that will apply to just that.
Thank you, Caleb but I had tried that as well. This is what finally worked after getting tech support from my WordPress BRIDGE Theme.
“We found the instructions that you have specified here:
https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/local-pickup/
It appears that the code needs to be inserted into functions.php file.
This file is on the following path:
wp-content/themes/bridge/functions.php
Our suggestion is to modify it via child theme, this way your change won’t be lost when you update the main theme. To use child theme, you have to install it just like you install any wp theme – choose bridge-child.zip in the folder with the installation files that you downloaded from Themeforest. After you install the child theme, you have to activate it in Appearance -> Themes. This is the location of file in your child theme:
wp-content/themes/bridge-child/functions.php
Open the child theme’s functions.php in your text editor and add the code below the existing code.
Save the file and upload modified functions.php into bridge-child folder on your server (via FTP).
Ok, I copied all the screen shots on Danny’s post (Thanks by the way!) but it didn’t help. I’m a new user, about 6 weeks. Is there a help line number that can be called that could help me through this? I have no idea what Otravez is talking about!!!
If you are unable to use the fix in my last post, you can purchase WooCommerce Local Pickup Plus plugin. I also talked to them today. I just didn’t want to have to pay $79. for it. They said it would solve the problem. It has many other bells and whistles you may or may not need. Just go to their site and look into it. They will answer any questions on a product you may want to buy. Hope this helps a little.
Hey psimpson0339,
Otherwise, feel free to open up your own support thread and you can get further help. It’s against the forum rules to append your own questions onto another’s post 😉
