Does anyone know anything about this topic?

Okay. Well no one has helped me with this, but it has since somehow fixed itself.
My question now is how can I show my paypal shipping on my website? It doesn’t show up until you get to paypal and put in your zip code. Also when someone orders, it says
“Validation error: PayPal amounts do not match (gross x). Order status changed from Pending Payment to On Hold.”
The x represents how much it costs with shipping, whereas it thinks it is supposed to be less. Does it just do this??
This makes sense: for woocommerce, you send the customer to paypal to pay for the order, but when he comes back from paypal, the total amount is the order plus shipment. So the amounts don’t match, and it displays an error.
Your best solution, if you don’t want to use the native woocommerce shipping solution would be to use a plugin to calculate your shipping fees, so that it is included in the total amount BEFORE sending your customer to Paypal. Or disable the hash verification after your payment step, but I’m not sure it is even possible.

@bart_the_wacky, thank you for the suggestion. Do you have a plugin in mind that would work?
Yep, I don’t use it myself (the native fonction works out fine), but i’ve seen good opinions there and there about https://wordpress.org/plugins/table-rate-shipping-for-woocommerce/
It is fully customizable and pretty simple, so feel free to try it (but premium version isn’t, free…).
Glad I could help!

You’re welcome! (I started developping for internet in april, so I’m glad I can help out so soon ^^).
