Disable Free Shipping for Heavyweight Orders

FAQ

Can I change the weight limit or other thresholds?

Yes. You can update all thresholds and conditions via the settings page in the WordPress admin area. You can also set different thresholds per shipping zone, shipping class, or product category. Developers can also override the weight limit using a filter:

add_filter( 'dfsh_weight_limit', function( $limit ) { return 25; } );

Does it delete all data on uninstall?

Yes. When you delete the plugin, all settings are removed automatically.

Can I exclude certain products from restrictions?

Yes. Edit the product and check the box labeled “Exclude this product from shipping restrictions.” You can also set a custom weight limit per product.

Can I disable admin notification emails?

Yes. There is a setting in the plugin options to enable or disable admin notification emails.

What information is included in the admin notification email?

The email includes the customer’s name (if logged in) and a list of products in the cart at the time the shipping method was restricted.

Does the plugin support caching plugins like Redis or Memcached?

Yes. If a persistent object cache is detected, the plugin will cache restriction results for up to 12 hours for improved performance.

Can I allow certain coupons to bypass shipping restrictions?

Yes. In the Bypass Rules section, you can enter comma-separated coupon codes that will allow customers to use free shipping even if their cart exceeds the weight limit.

Can I allow certain user roles to bypass restrictions?

Yes. In the Bypass Rules section, you can select which user roles (e.g., Administrator, Wholesale Customer) should bypass the shipping restrictions.

Can I temporarily disable restrictions for promotions?

Yes. In the Schedule Settings section, you can enable a date range during which all shipping restrictions will be bypassed (e.g., for Black Friday or holiday promotions).
