Drupal Commerce 2: How to add a shipping method

Drupal Commerce 2: How to add a shipping method

Drupal Commerce 2 shipping module lets you quickly add and configure various shipping methods for your site. You can easily set up basic shipping methods for flat-rate per-order or per-item shipping options out of the box. The plug-in-based system allows for more advanced shipping integrations with suppliers for real-time rate calculation.

In this Acro Commerce Tech Talk video, we use our Urban Hipster Commerce 2 demo site to show you just how easy it is to create a simple flat-rate shipping fee for your eCommerce store. We set it up and then run through the checkout so that you can see exactly what your customers would see.

It's important to note that this video was recorded before the official 2.0 release of Drupal Commerce using a beta release of the Commerce Shipping module. You may see some differences between this video and the current releases. The documentation is also evolving over time.
