Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. I completely understand how important the shipping calculator is for the cart experience, especially when it directly impacts conversion rates.
You’re absolutely right that the shipping calculator is currently not available in the Cart Block, and this has already been raised as a feature request with the WooCommerce team. At the moment, the request is still open and under review.
Here is the feature request for this feature.
https://woocommerce.com/feature-request/cart-block-shipping-estimate-calculator/
We’d strongly recommend adding your vote there. The WooCommerce product team actively reviews these requests, and the more votes and real-world impact they receive, the higher the likelihood of prioritization.
In the meantime, as mentioned earlier, a temporary workaround would be to switch back to the classic Cart, where the shipping calculator is still available.
Thank you for understanding and cooperation.
Hi there, thanks for your reply. I’ve already voted on the request.
I just want to sincerely ask that this be reconsidered as a priority. The removal of the shipping calculator is having a real impact on our sales, and it’s honestly been very frustrating to see such a basic and essential feature missing.
This isn’t just a small improvement, it directly affects whether customers complete their purchase or not. I truly hope this can be addressed soon. It would make a huge difference for us. Thank you!
Hi @username,
I hear you, and I can see how much this is affecting your conversions. You’re absolutely right, this is a key part of the cart experience and it makes sense that its absence is frustrating.
Thanks for already voting on the request, that really helps. I’ve also noted your feedback here, especially the impact on sales, as that kind of real world context is important for prioritization.
For now, switching back to the classic Cart is still the best workaround to bring the shipping calculator back: https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-store-editing/customizing-cart-and-checkout/.
We’re keeping a close eye on this, and updates will come through the feature request when there’s progress.
We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – we’ll be here if and/or when you are ready to continue.
We’d love your feedback – please leave us a review: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/reviews/
Any news about this? This is a very necessary feature. We’re losing a lot of sales! 🙁
Hi there!
Thanks for following up on this I understand how important this is, especially when it’s impacting sales.
At the moment, there’s no ETA on when this feature will be available again with the block-based Cart. However, our developers are actively working on improvements in this area, and we’re hopeful it will be included in a future update.
In the meantime, as a workaround, you can switch from the block-based Cart to the classic Cart. This will allow you to use the shipping calculator on the cart page as expected.
Here is a guide to help you enable the classic Cart:
https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-store-editing/templates/customizing-the-cart-page/#reverting-to-classic-cart
Once you replace the Cart block with the classic Cart, the shipping calculator option will appear again under WooCommerce → Settings → Shipping → Shipping settings.
I hope this helps!
