 * Hi,
 * I want to set the 1st option in my shipping list as default, so even if the user
   does a page refresh on checkout page, the 1st shipping option should be selected.
   
   And I have disabled the shipping selection from cart page by adding the following
   filer.
 * function disable_shipping_calc_on_cart( $show_shipping ) {
    if( is_cart() ) {
   return false; } return $show_shipping; } add_filter( ‘woocommerce_cart_ready_to_calc_shipping’,‘
   disable_shipping_calc_on_cart’, 99 );
 * Kindly help me to with default selection of the shipping method.
 * Thanks

 * Hi akshat05,
 * is it not enough to set the shipping method in the zone first?
 * The default Shipping Method for customers is the top listed…[https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/setting-up-shipping-zones/#section-8](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/setting-up-shipping-zones/#section-8)

 * Hi [@jablonowski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jablonowski/),
 * No, if user does a page reload or goes back from the checkout page to another
   page and comes back to checkout page, then the previously selected method is 
   selected by default.
 * Thanks

 * I was able to replicate this, and it’s a nice little feature for customers.
 * This is a development topic that I’m not able to help with. I’m going to leave
   it open for a bit to see if anyone is able to chime in to help you out.

 * We haven’t heard back from you or anyone else in a while, so I’m going to mark
   this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
