FedEx Currency, Taxes & Price Display – WooCommerce Shipping Plugin for FedEx FAQs

Will the PluginHive FedEx plugin work for a WooCommerce store based in Australia that uses US Dollars?

Yes, the PluginHive FedEx plugin can be used for your WooCommerce store based in Australia as long as FedEx shipping services are available in your region. The plugin supports FedEx wherever it operates and is currency-agnostic, so using US Dollars in your store will not affect its functionality. You can configure the plugin accordingly for your shipping needs.

Where can I enter the consignee’s Tax ID (TIN) after an order has been made using the PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx Shipping Plugin?

The PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx Shipping Plugin does not offer an option to enter or collect the consignee’s (importer’s) Tax ID (TIN) directly after an order is placed. Currently, there is no feature within the standard plugin setup to input the importer's TIN on the customs invoice for each order.

What should I do if I encounter an issue creating a shipment in the PluginHive WooCommerce plugin due to the "Exclude Tax" option under Special Services?

1. Disable the "Exclude Tax" option in the Special Services settings within the plugin.
2. Attempt to generate the shipment again; this should resolve the error and allow successful shipment creation.
3. For a permanent fix, update the plugin to version 7.1.6 or later, which contains a bug fix addressing shipment creation when the "Exclude Tax" option is enabled.
4. To update, go to your WordPress admin dashboard, navigate to Plugins, find the PluginHive WooCommerce Shipping Plugin for FedEx, and perform the update.

Is it possible to include importer (consignee) tax details for multiple countries in the PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx Shipping Plugin?

• Add importer details, including TIN, for the countries you ship to.
• Customize importer information based on destination countries for accurate customs invoices.
• The addon costs $250 and is non-refundable.
• You must configure importer details for each destination country within the addon settings.
• This feature is not included in the standard plugin.

Is a valid Trade Notification required to configure the TIN (Tax Identification Number) for FedEx shipments in the WooCommerce FedEx Shipping Plugin?

A valid Trade Notification is not typically required to configure the TIN number in the WooCommerce FedEx Shipping Plugin. However, the TIN is essential for customs clearance in many countries, including Panama, as it identifies the importer/exporter for tax and regulatory purposes. Ensure that the TIN is entered correctly and formatted according to FedEx requirements to avoid errors such as "TIN number is marked as invalid."

How can I offer free shipping with FedEx as the shipping option in WooCommerce when customers shop in multiple currencies, and set a minimum order amount for each currency so that FedEx shipping displays as "Free – $0"?

WooCommerce allows setting up free shipping based on minimum order amounts, but it is a native WooCommerce feature rather than a built-in part of the FedEx plugin. To implement free shipping depending on the order total in different currencies, you should configure free shipping rates under WooCommerce’s Shipping settings as follows:

1. Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping.
2. Select the shipping zone where you want to offer free shipping.
3. Add a Free Shipping method to that zone.
4. Edit the Free Shipping method and set the “Free Shipping Requires…” option to “A minimum order amount.”
5. Enter the minimum order amount (for example, $200) for the corresponding currency.
6. Repeat this setup for each currency and shipping zone if required.

Refer to the WooCommerce documentation on free shipping for detailed setup: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/free-shipping/#:~:text=Go%20to:%20WooCommerce%20%3E%20Settings%20%3E%20Shipping.

However, WooCommerce itself doesn’t automatically switch free shipping thresholds per currency within one zone, and the FedEx shipping plugin does not have a direct setting to configure free shipping amounts per currency.

Does the WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin support the WPML MultiLingual & Multicurrency plugin?

Yes, the WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin is compatible with the WPML MultiLingual & Multicurrency plugin. You can use both plugins together to cater to multi-language and multi-currency requirements in your WooCommerce store. To see how the FedEx plugin works, you can explore the live demo available at https://shipping-automation-demo.pluginhive.com/?hash=ec10e38356980502e191007aa81127f7.

Does the WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin support multi-currency stores using the YayCurrency WooCommerce Multi-Currency Switcher plugin?

The WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin is not compatible with the YayCurrency WooCommerce Multi-Currency Switcher plugin. However, it is compatible with FOX Currency Switcher, WPML Multicurrency plugin, and WooCommerce Multi-Currency plugin. If you are using YayCurrency, this plugin may not work as expected for multi-currency functionality.

Does PluginHive provide customization services to implement multi-origin inventory-aware shipping logic in WooCommerce?

PluginHive does not offer customization services related to inventory management or warehouse selection features beyond what our current plugins support. We are unable to assist in custom development for automatically selecting warehouses based on inventory availability or calculating shipping rates accordingly.

Does PluginHive offer a WooCommerce plugin that manages multi-warehouse inventory and selects the closest warehouse based on product availability for shipping calculation?

Currently, PluginHive does not offer a WooCommerce plugin that supports multi-warehouse inventory management or automatically selects a warehouse based on product availability. Our existing plugins do not handle inventory allocation per warehouse nor dynamically choose the closest warehouse for shipping calculation based on stock levels or customer location.

Can I use the PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx shipping plugin to ship from Mexico and set the Mexican Peso as my store’s primary currency?

Yes, the PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx shipping plugin supports shipping from Mexico and works wherever FedEx operates worldwide. Additionally, it supports Mexican Peso (MXN) as the base currency for your store. You can integrate your FedEx account regardless of your store location, provided FedEx services are available in that region. For a hands-on experience, you can visit the plugin demo website to see its features in action before purchasing.

After disabling the "Exclude Tax" option in the Special Services section of the PluginHive FedEx WooCommerce plugin, does that mean the shipment creation issue is resolved if I am prompted only for the shipper phone number?

Disabling the "Exclude Tax" option often resolves the shipment creation error related to tax exclusion. If the next prompt or error is about the shipper phone number, it indicates the plugin is progressing further in the shipment creation process. However, to confirm full resolution, generate a shipment for a new order and ensure that no further errors occur. If you encounter additional issues, provide the specific order number and grant permission to PluginHive support to generate the label for thorough troubleshooting.

Why do FedEx shipping options disappear or show fewer choices when I increase the quantity or add multiple items to the cart in the PluginHive FedEx plugin?

1. Complete the FedEx Registration process through the PluginHive plugin on your site, which links your FedEx account for accurate, account-based rates.
2. Follow the official PluginHive guide on FedEx setup here: https://www.pluginhive.com/knowledge-base/setting-woocommerce-fedex-shipping-plugin/#Add_FedEx
3. Make sure you are using the latest plugin version (7.1.0 or later) where this registration feature is available.

Why are customers being charged excessive shipping costs when they add multiple quantities of the same item to the cart using the PluginHive FedEx shipping plugin?

This issue typically occurs due to the packaging method configuration in the FedEx plugin settings. If the packaging method is set to "Pack items individually," the plugin calculates shipping for each item separately, causing shipping costs to multiply with quantity. To resolve this, change the packaging method to either "Weight-based Packing" or "Pack into Box," which allows multiple items to be packed into a single shipment. Ensure your packaging settings reflect accurate box dimensions and weights, enabling correct rate calculations for combined product quantities.

What troubleshooting steps should I follow to help PluginHive support investigate shipping calculation issues?

1. Enable Debug Mode in the plugin settings.
2. Reproduce the issue by attempting to fetch shipping rates on the cart or checkout page using various addresses.
3. Go to the plugin’s “Help & Support” page.
4. Submit a Diagnostic Report from there.

What steps should I take to debug FedEx shipping issues and provide PluginHive support with sufficient information?

1. In the plugin settings, enable “Debug Mode.”
2. Reproduce the issue by testing shipping rates on your cart or checkout page.
3. Go to the plugin’s “Help & Support” page and submit a Diagnostic Report, referencing your support ticket number.
4. Share detailed information including:
5. Provide screenshots showing the discrepancies on FedEx.com and your store if possible.

What steps should I take to confirm that my FedEx shipping rates are working properly with WooCommerce?

1. Ensure City and Postal Code fields are correctly captured in WooCommerce checkout and passed to the plugin.
2. Disable other shipping methods temporarily to isolate FedEx rates.
3. Enter accurate shipping addresses including postal codes during testing.
4. Check that the FedEx COD option is disabled if not in use.
5. Confirm debug mode is off for a production environment.
6. Test shipping on a standard WooCommerce theme like Storefront to rule out theme conflicts.
7. If rates appear correctly after these steps, your configuration is successful. If not, review logs or contact support with diagnostics.

What steps should I take if PluginHive team asks me to clear browsing data before accessing my site?

1. Open your web browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox).
2. Access browser settings or preferences.
3. Navigate to Privacy & Security > Clear browsing data.
4. Select cached images and files, cookies, and site data.
5. Choose the time range (e.g., all time or last 24 hours).
6. Confirm clearing the data.
7. Reload the site URL and attempt accessing again.

What steps can I take if PluginHive support requests access to investigate FedEx shipping issues, but I face login or password reset problems?

1. Attempt to reset your WordPress admin password via the usual “Lost your password?” link in the login screen.
2. If unsuccessful due to WordPress end errors or technical issues, manually create or update a user with admin privileges using alternative methods such as database access (phpMyAdmin) or FTP file edits.
3. Provide PluginHive with a temporary WordPress admin username and password that you know is working. Avoid sending sensitive or permanent credentials—always create temporary credentials to maintain security.
4. Inform support once temporary access credentials are ready and share the exact site URL and user details.
5. After troubleshooting, immediately revoke or reset the temporary credentials to preserve security.

What steps can I take if I suspect a bug in the FedEx WooCommerce plugin is causing incomplete address data to appear in the cart shipping calculator?

1. Enable debug mode in the PluginHive FedEx plugin to capture detailed logs of shipping rate requests and address data sent. Submit diagnostic reports to PluginHive support.
2. Temporarily deactivate the FedEx plugin and test if the WooCommerce shipping calculator behaves differently, which can isolate whether the plugin is causing the issue.
3. Check for plugin conflicts by disabling other shipping or checkout-related plugins, then re-test the shipping calculator behavior.
4. Review WooCommerce and FedEx plugin changelogs and support forums to identify if similar reported bugs exist with workarounds.
5. Test on a staging or development environment with a default WooCommerce theme and minimal plugins to reproduce the issue cleanly.
6. Collaborate with WooCommerce support or your developer to verify if WooCommerce is sending the incomplete address independently of the FedEx plugin.
7. Provide PluginHive full site admin access via a staging environment or detailed error reports if requested to facilitate in-depth investigation.
8. Track and communicate the issue through the official support channels for timely resolution and updates.

What steps are recommended before making changes to plugin settings for troubleshooting?

1. Create a full backup of your website, including your database and files.
2. Ensure you have access to all necessary login credentials and permissions in case you need to revert changes.
3. Test changes initially on a staging or development site if available, to avoid impacting your live store.
4. Document changes you make so you can track modifications and easily roll back if needed.
5. Proceed only after taking these precautions to minimize risk during troubleshooting.

What should I do if the PluginHive support team cannot access my staging site during troubleshooting?

1. Verify that the URL is correct and publicly accessible by the PluginHive support team.
2. Ensure there are no IP restrictions, password protections, or firewall rules blocking external access.
3. Confirm that the correct admin login credentials are shared securely.
4. If possible, provide a direct login URL to the WordPress admin dashboard (e.g., /wp-admin) rather than just the front-end login page.
5. Validate that the staging site is active and not in maintenance mode or password-protected.
6. Once confirmed, share updated access details to facilitate further troubleshooting.

What should I do if the PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin’s cart does not clear properly during testing, causing old products to reload and interfering with shipping rate troubleshooting?

To ensure accurate testing of shipping rates by clearing your cart properly:

1. **Manually Remove All Products:** – Clear the entire cart before adding test items.

• 2. **Check for Caching Issues:*
• Disable or clear any caching plugins or server-side caches that might cause stale cart data.

3. **Use a Different Browser or Incognito Mode:** – This helps eliminate session or cookie conflicts impacting cart behavior.

4. **Disable Conflicting Plugins Temporarily:** – Deactivate other plugins that may interfere with cart functionality to isolate conflicts.

5. **Add Test Product(s) After Clearing:** – Once the cart is empty and stable, add only the product(s) you want to test and verify shipping rates.

6. **If Issue Persists:** – Provide PluginHive support with a screencast or detailed description of the cart clearing steps and issues observed.

Following these steps guarantees a clean testing environment, enabling reliable troubleshooting of shipping rate calculations.

What should I do if the "Free Shipping" option stops working after upgrading to the PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin?

If free shipping is not applying as expected after an upgrade, take these steps:

1. Verify that your WooCommerce free shipping method and threshold rules in shipping zones remain correctly configured and active.

2. Check that PluginHive FedEx Shipping is not overriding or conflicting with free shipping options in your store’s shipping methods.

3. Review whether the plugin settings require explicit enabling/disabling or conditional rules so free shipping orders bypass FedEx rate calculations.

4. Make sure the free shipping method has correct priority compared to FedEx shipping.

5. Avoid downgrading the plugin; instead, adjust your shipping methods and plugin configurations accordingly.

6. If uncertain about settings, contact PluginHive support for guidance based on your plugin version and store setup.

Correct configuration ensures seamless coexistence of free shipping promotions alongside FedEx shipping quotes.

What should I do if some products in my shop do not pull up shipping options, preventing customers from checking out?

1. Enable Debug Mode in the plugin settings under the General Tab.
2. Check shipping rates again after enabling debug mode.
3. Navigate to the "Help & Support" page within the plugin settings and submit a Diagnostic Report as per instructions.
4. Review the diagnostic report for errors. If you encounter a "Forbidden" error, perform the following:
5. After these steps, test the shipping options again to confirm resolution.

What should I do if shipping rates are received from FedEx but do not show on the shipping section during checkout?

1. Verify that all necessary shipping services are enabled under the plugin’s "Rates & Services" settings.
2. Confirm that the FedEx services available for your country are correctly mapped and supported by the plugin version you have.
3. Ensure you are running the latest version of the plugin, as support for specific FedEx services like “FedEx Priority” for Chile may require updating to the most recent release.
4. Clear any site caches and test again.
5. If the issue persists, enable debug mode in the plugin settings, reproduce the issue by attempting checkout, and submit a diagnostic report via the plugin’s "Help & Support" page for further investigation.

What should I do if providing PluginHive support with site access does not help in resolving FedEx integration issues?

If granting PluginHive support temporary WordPress admin access and FedEx account credentials is not sufficient for issue resolution, you should maintain direct control over troubleshooting while coordinating closely with the support team. Test the integration actively from your end to observe behaviors and report findings. Request specific guidance or troubleshooting steps that you can implement independently. This collaborative approach helps you understand and potentially resolve problems without relying solely on external access.

What should I do if products in my WordPress store automatically get removed from the cart when added, preventing shipping rate checks?

1. Check for conflicts with other plugins or theme functionality that might trigger automatic cart clearing. Temporarily disable other plugins except PluginHive and switch to a default theme to test.
2. Review any custom code snippets, caching settings, or session management configurations that could impact cart persistence.
3. Clear all caches (plugin, server, browser) to ensure sessions and cart data are correctly maintained.
4. Test adding products to the cart after each change to isolate what causes the cart to empty.
5. Resolve the cart emptiness issue before continuing with shipping plugin diagnostics, as shipping rates require products in the cart to calculate correctly.

What should I do if PluginHive support asks me to use a VPN to allow them to access my site?

1. Provide details of a recommended VPN, such as a free Chrome VPN extension like Urban VPN (https://www.urban-vpn.com/).

3. Share the correct URL and temporarily permitted login credentials with PluginHive through secure channels.
4. Ensure your firewall or security settings whitelist the VPN IP ranges or allow connections from the VPN locations used.
5. Confirm with PluginHive once everything is set up so they can log in and assist you further.

What should I do if PluginHive shipping labels are not generating due to compatibility issues after a WooCommerce or PluginHive update?

1. Check that your WooCommerce plugin is updated to the latest version supported by PluginHive (currently version 9.2.3 or above).
2. Update WooCommerce if necessary via WordPress Admin > Plugins > Update.
3. Ensure your PluginHive shipping plugin (such as FedEx) is also updated to its latest version.
4. Clear any caching plugins or server caches to remove stale code or data.
5. Attempt label generation again. This sequence resolves compatibility issues that cause critical errors during label generation.

What should I do if PluginHive FedEx plugin is not fully compatible with WooCommerce version 10.0.3?

1. Downgrade WooCommerce to version 9.9.5, which is fully supported by the current PluginHive FedEx plugin version.
2. To downgrade, either use a backup or download WooCommerce 9.9.5 from the official WooCommerce plugin repository and install it manually via WordPress admin.
3. Avoid using WooCommerce 10.0.3 with the plugin until an official compatibility update is released.
4. Monitor official PluginHive communications for announcements regarding the update that will add full support for WooCommerce 10.0.3.

What should I do if no FedEx shipping methods appear under the "Calculate Cost" option?

1. Verify your plugin and WooCommerce configurations to ensure all settings are properly entered, including origin and destination addresses and package parameters.
2. Provide a screencast (video recording) demonstrating the exact steps you take when clicking on the "Calculate Cost" tab to help support understand the issue.
3. Send a new diagnostic report after attempting to view available shipping methods using "Calculate Cost" to PluginHive support for further troubleshooting.
4. The support team may also request additional information such as order number and site access permissions for label generation if needed.

What should I do if my payment on PluginHive’s platform is not approved or fails?

1. Verify the payment failure message and note any error details.
2. Contact your bank or credit card issuer to inquire why the payment was not approved and resolve any restrictions or blocks.
3. After your bank confirms the issue is resolved, retry the payment on the platform.
4. If payment still cannot be processed, request a payment link from PluginHive support that may offer alternate INR payment options like Net Banking or UPI.
5. Use the alternate payment link provided to complete your order.
6. Keep PluginHive informed about your progress or any further errors for continued support.

What should I do if live FedEx shipping rates are not showing on the cart or checkout pages despite having the real-time rates option enabled?

1. Confirm the “Real-time Rates” setting is enabled under the plugin’s “Rates and Services” tab to allow fetching rates directly from FedEx API.
2. Verify the WooCommerce Shipping Zone for the customer’s shipping destination is properly configured and includes the FedEx plugin as a shipping method.
3. Ensure customers enter a complete shipping address (Country, State, City, ZIP) either manually or via WooCommerce’s shipping calculator before rates can be fetched.
4. Enable the plugin’s “Debug Mode” to capture error logs related to FedEx API calls and shipping calculations.
5. Reproduce the issue on the cart or checkout page, then submit a Diagnostic Report through the plugin’s “Help & Support” section to PluginHive support with detailed information.

3. PluginHive support may assist with updating the plugin or providing direct download access upon verification.

What should I do about the "migration is In Progress" notification shown in the PluginHive dashboard after updating WooCommerce and resolving shipping rate issues?

Once the migration process is fully completed and the status shows as complete in the PluginHive dashboard, you should manually close the "migration is In Progress" notification banner to remove it from your view. No additional action is required unless the status remains incomplete or errors persist. If you encounter further issues or have questions regarding the migration, you can contact PluginHive support for assistance.

What options does the PluginHive plugin provide to adjust the printing layout and appearance of shipping labels?

1. Go to Plugin Settings → Shipping Labels in the PluginHive plugin.
2. Locate scaling controls to increase or decrease the overall label size to fit your printer’s paper or label dimensions.
3. Use alignment options to position the label content accurately on the printing medium (e.g., left, center, or right alignment).

What options are available to notify customers about their FedEx shipment after the order is placed?

You can enable the FedEx Email Notification option in the FedEx plugin. This setting sends shipment notification emails directly from FedEx to your customers once the shipment is created, informing them about tracking details and status updates. This notification is independent of your store’s order emails.

What is the recommended way to provide access to PluginHive support to investigate plugin issues without compromising site security?

1. Create a new user account in your WordPress admin panel.
2. Assign the username "[email protected]" (or as directed by PluginHive).
3. Set the user role to "Administrator" so that they have the necessary privileges to debug the plugin.
4. Once the investigation and resolution are complete, promptly delete this user account to maintain site security and prevent unauthorized changes.

What is the recommended way to coordinate technical discussions and troubleshooting with PluginHive support and a development team during FedEx integration?

To effectively coordinate technical discussions and troubleshooting with PluginHive support and your development team:

1. Schedule a call with PluginHive support including your web development team to address integration specifics clearly.
2. Prepare detailed information beforehand:
3. Share access to staging or testing environments if possible to replicate issues.
4. Use a collaborative communication channel (email threads, video calls) to allow real-time troubleshooting.
5. Request step-by-step guidance during calls and documentation for implemented fixes.
6. After calls, confirm any configuration changes and test thoroughly before going live.

This collaborative approach ensures a smooth resolution of integration issues and proper implementation of shipping settings.

What is the recommended Shipping Quote Type setting in FedEx plugin to ensure accurate shipping rates with currency conversion?

The recommended Shipping Quote Type setting is **"Total Net Shipping Cost: Shipping Cost with discount, surcharges & transportation taxes."** This setting ensures that the FedEx plugin retrieves the complete, discounted rate including any surcharges or taxes associated with the shipment. Using this option helps provide accurate base shipping costs before currency conversion is applied in multi-currency setups. Avoid changing this setting once configured, as altering it can cause discrepancies or inaccurate shipping calculations.

What is the recommended interim solution if the PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin is not yet fully compatible with the latest WooCommerce version?

If you face issues with label generation due to incompatibility with the latest WooCommerce version, downgrade WooCommerce to the previous compatible version (e.g., version 9.9.5) as a temporary workaround. This allows the plugin to function correctly while waiting for the official compatibility update from PluginHive. Always backup your site before downgrading and test thoroughly to avoid plugin conflicts.

What is the recommended approach to troubleshoot and resolve issues when the “Calculate cost” button on FedEx shipment labels no longer returns rates?

1. Enabling the plugin’s Debug Mode to capture error logs.
2. Ensuring all required order shipping fields are populated correctly (especially ship-to phone number).
3. Confirming the plugin license is active and performing a license deactivation/reactivation cycle if necessary.
4. Re-registering the FedEx account credentials within the plugin.
5. Testing for any site-level conflicts by disabling themes or other plugins temporarily.
6. Submitting diagnostic reports containing logs and order details to PluginHive support for assistance.

What is the purpose of the "Generate Packages" and "Calculate Cost" tools in the WooCommerce order section of the FedEx plugin, and what advantage do they provide if the customer has already selected a specific FedEx shipping service during checkout?

The "Generate Packages" and "Calculate Cost" tools in the WooCommerce order section serve the following purposes:

1. **Generate Packages**: This action creates packages based on the parcel packing method configured in the plugin settings. It organizes the order items into one or more packages ready for shipment.

2. **Calculate Cost**: This feature allows you to retrieve real-time FedEx shipping rates directly on the order page. It enables you to compare different FedEx shipping services (e.g., cheapest or fastest options) for the delivery address before generating the shipping label.

If your customer has already selected a specific FedEx service (for example, FedEx 2Day) at checkout, using the "Calculate Cost" feature is not mandatory. You can skip this step and proceed directly to confirming the shipment and generating the shipping label. The "Calculate Cost" tool is useful mostly when you want to review or choose alternative shipping options or verify costs manually before finalizing the shipment.

What is the pricing and process for customizations related to delivery options and ancillary charge adjustments in PluginHive?

1. Submit detailed requirements for the features you want customized.
2. PluginHive assesses feasibility and provides a final cost estimate.
3. Upon approval, the customization work commences.

What is the minimum WooCommerce version supported by the PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx with Print Label plugin, and why is updating important?

• Ensure server resources (memory, PHP limits) are sufficient for migration tasks.
• Coordinate with PluginHive support to monitor and assist in migration for high-volume stores.

What is PluginHive’s affiliate commission payout schedule and criteria?

1. Each order is eligible for payout 45 days after the purchase date, aligned with the refund policy to ensure stability of the sale.
2. The minimum payout amount is $50; commissions will accumulate until this threshold is met before payment is processed.
3. Once these conditions are met, commissions from referred sales are paid out automatically during the scheduled payout period.

What is meant by "product link" when requested by PluginHive support, and how do I provide it?

1. Visit the exact product page you are testing.
2. Add the product(s) to a test cart on your site to replicate issues.

What initial information should I provide when reporting Real-Time Rates or checkout issues to PluginHive support?

When reporting issues like Real-Time Rates failures or checkout problems, provide the following details for efficient troubleshooting:

1. The exact plugin version you are using (e.g., version 7.1.1).
2. A detailed description of the issue, including what happens and when (e.g., site fails to load payment options after entering address).
3. Any recent changes made to your plugin or site setup prior to the issue.
4. Steps you have already taken to troubleshoot, such as deactivating plugins.
5. Any specific error messages or screenshots if possible (not included here per guidelines).

7. A detailed description or screencast showing the exact steps taken that reproduce the problem.
8. Disclosure of any custom plugins or code snippets active on the site that may affect checkout, shipping, or orders.

What information should I provide to ensure the rate adjustment logic (Universal vs. Per Product) is implemented correctly in the ODFL LTL plugin?

1. One or two example products with their current shipping rates, the Universal rate adjustment percentage, and the proposed Per Product adjustment amount (positive or negative).
2. The expected final adjusted shipping rate after combining both Universal and Per Product adjustments for each example.
3. Explanation of the expected behavior when multiple such adjusted products are included in a single cart – whether adjustments should be calculated individually per product line or applied in aggregate.

What information do I need to provide to PluginHive support to resolve shipping rate discrepancies between WooCommerce and FedEx?

To help PluginHive support investigate and resolve discrepancies between WooCommerce shipping charges and FedEx invoices, provide the following:

• Exact origin and destination addresses
• Package dimensions and weight
• Shipping service selected

2. Screenshots or screencasts showing the FedEx rates as displayed on the official FedEx website or invoice, ensuring these reflect the same shipment parameters.

3. Confirmation of FedEx account credentials linked to your PluginHive plugin setup, if possible, so support can verify if negotiated rates or billing factors differ.

4. Access to WooCommerce admin with order details to cross-check configurations and plugin settings.

Without FedEx account login details, support can only provide limited assistance and will request screenshots or other proof of FedEx rates for comparison. Providing all relevant shipment information along with authentic rate screenshots expedites troubleshooting and resolution.

What improvements were introduced in WooCommerce FedEx Shipping Plugin version 7.1.2 regarding email handling?

• An enhanced workflow for the Shipper’s Email ID in the case of return shipments. This update ensures that for return shipments, the plugin properly uses the Order Email ID rather than defaulting to a configured Sender Email Address, thereby supporting reverse logistics scenarios more effectively.
• Users are advised to update to this version to benefit from this improvement and ensure shipping label emails are sent to the correct recipient.
• The update addresses customer feedback regarding return shipment email routing and enhances overall reliability of shipping label email dispatch.

What improvements or bug fixes are included in PluginHive WooCommerce Shipping Plugin for FedEx version 7.1.6?

1. Added a new feature to enable or disable the cleanup shipment details functionality.
2. Fixed a critical bug that prevented shipment creation when the "Exclude Tax" option was enabled under Special Services.

What domains should I ask my hosting provider to whitelist to ensure proper communication with PluginHive services?

• pluginhive.com
• pluginhive.io

What does the warning "The sum of commodities customs value amounts do not equal the total customs value amount; the greater customs value amount was used to rate" mean, and how can I fix it?

1. Ensure you have a valid packaging method set up in the PluginHive shipping plugin (e.g., box dimensions, package types).
2. On the order page, do not manually add packages; instead, click the **"Re-generate package"** button. This lets the plugin automatically calculate the correct package type, weight, and dimensions based on your product data.
3. The plugin will then use the appropriate customs values and packaging information to rate and generate the shipping label without warnings.

What does enabling “Debug Mode” in the PluginHive FedEx plugin do, and how should I use it?

1. Navigate to the PluginHive FedEx plugin settings.
2. Locate and enable the “Debug Mode” option.
3. Perform actions that reproduce the issue—such as adding products to cart and attempting to fetch shipping rates.
4. The plugin records detailed logs about shipping requests, errors, and address data.
5. After reproducing the problem, generate and submit a Diagnostic Report from the plugin’s “Help & Support” section to PluginHive support for analysis.
6. This helps PluginHive support pinpoint configuration errors, API issues, or plugin bugs.

What caused the issue where pre-packed packages were missing in shipment calculations with WooCommerce version 10 and the FedEx plugin?

1. Update your FedEx Shipping Plugin to version 8.0.0 or later.
2. Ensure WooCommerce and WordPress are updated to compatible versions (WooCommerce v10.0.4+, WordPress v6.8.2+).

What caused a 5 euro markup on FedEx shipping rates on my WooCommerce site compared to the FedEx website, and how was it resolved?

1. WooCommerce Taxes add tax calculations on top of the base shipping rates.
2. FedEx’s API returns shipping rates without taxes, so enabling taxes inflates the final price seen by customers.
3. Go to WooCommerce → Settings → Tax.
4. Disable the tax calculation on shipping or configure it appropriately.
5. Once taxes on shipping were disabled, the FedEx rates on your site matched the FedEx website rates exactly.

What are the key improvements and changes in the WooCommerce FedEx Shipping Plugin with Print Label version 8.0.0?

4. Ability to switch seamlessly between the new REST API and legacy SOAP connection from plugin settings.
5. Removal of deprecated FedEx C.O.D. feature.
6. Note: HazMat and ORM-D Dangerous Goods are currently not supported through REST due to FedEx API limitations; users depending on these should continue using SOAP.

Is it safe to deactivate the WPML Multicurrency plugin to check if it is causing FedEx shipping rates to be higher on my WooCommerce site, and how can I avoid losing product translations?

1. Ensure you have a full daily backup of your site before making any changes.
2. Deactivate the WPML Multicurrency plugin temporarily and test shipping rates.
3. Since your products are already translated, deactivating the plugin should not delete translations but only disable the multicurrency functionality on the frontend.
4. Reactivate the plugin immediately after testing to restore currency display and translations.
5. Always verify your site’s backup is working correctly so you can restore if any issue occurs.

How can I manage shipping prices in multiple currencies (PLN, EUR, GBP) when using PluginHive plugins?

To handle multiple currencies like Polish Złoty (PLN), Euro (EUR), and British Pound (GBP), you will need to use a multi-currency plugin alongside PluginHive plugins. The PluginHive plugins are compatible with several popular WooCommerce multi-currency plugins such as FOX Multi-Currency, Aelia Currency Switcher, and the official WooCommerce currency switcher plugin. Using one of these currency switchers allows prices—including shipping costs where applicable—to be displayed and converted according to your active currency settings. Ensure that your multi-currency plugin is properly configured to convert currency values according to your desired exchange rates or agreements.

Does the PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin support multi-currency functionality natively?

The PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin itself does not provide native multi-currency support or currency conversion features. Instead:

1. It is fully compatible with popular multi-currency plugins like WOOCS.
2. You should configure all currency switching, conversion rates, and currency display preferences through your chosen multi-currency plugin.
3. The FedEx plugin will then display rates in the currency as determined by the multi-currency plugin settings.
4. Any currency conversion or forced currency display for particular shipping methods or zones must be handled through the multi-currency plugin.
5. You can fine-tune conversion rates related to FedEx shipping rates within the plugin’s settings, but currency switching logic resides outside the FedEx plugin’s functionality.

For proper multi-currency support, it is highly recommended to consult or contact the support team of your multi-currency plugin provider.

Why might the FedEx plugin show incorrect currency cost calculations specifically with JPY when using certain currency conversion plugins?

Incorrect currency cost calculations with JPY can occur if manual adjustments to the currency exchange rates have been applied within your multi-currency plugin or FedEx plugin settings that do not correctly reflect the actual exchange rate. Since JPY often uses a different decimal or multiplier convention compared to other currencies, any misconfigured exchange rates or multipliers can cause unusually high or incorrect cost values. Ensuring that exchange rates are either automatically fetched or precisely entered without conflicting overrides typically resolves such issues, especially if the multi-currency plugin is officially supported and compatible with the FedEx plugin.

Why might currency conversion in the FedEx shipping plugin not display correct prices even after setting the conversion rate?

1. Confirm the exact conversion rate from your FedEx account currency to your store currency.
2. Enter this rate under the Adjustment tab in the plugin settings, not the Conversion tab.
3. Save the settings and clear any cache before checking rates again.
4. Verify the displayed rates match expected converted prices.

Why is FedEx returning shipping rates in my country's currency instead of US Dollars, even though both WooCommerce and the plugin are configured to use US Dollars?

FedEx returns shipping rates in the currency associated with the configured FedEx account’s billing address, regardless of the currency settings in WooCommerce or the plugin. To have the rates displayed in US Dollars, ensure that your FedEx account’s billing address and account settings are set to the United States and US Dollars. The plugin uses the currency tied to the FedEx account for rate calculations, so adjusting the FedEx account currency settings or using a FedEx account based in the US will resolve this issue.

Why has the renewal price for PluginHive increased from $69 to $99, and can I keep the original price?

The renewal price changed from $69 to $99 due to enhancements in the product, including the integration of direct registration features. The $69 pricing was maintained for eight years prior to this update. The current price is $99, but you can apply discount coupons, such as those offered during Cyber Monday sales, to reduce this cost. Using a coupon code (e.g., ph_bfcm_2024) will grant you a 20% discount on the $99 price. To benefit from discounts, ensure to redeem valid coupon codes at checkout.

Why does the tax value not convert correctly when changing the currency on the frontend while using the PluginHive FedEx plugin with Aelia Currency Switcher?

The issue occurs because the FedEx plugin calculates shipping and tax amounts based on the store’s base currency (in this case, BRL). When switching currencies on the frontend via plugins like Aelia Currency Switcher or Fox Currency Switcher, the plugin does not simply convert the already calculated tax amount; instead, it performs a fresh shipping and tax calculation in the switched currency, which can lead to discrepancies. This means the plugin's calculation process overrides the currency conversion expected from the currency switcher. To resolve this, testing with the Live Rates feature enabled is necessary to diagnose whether proper real-time conversion and calculation happen with both plugins enabled.

Why does the FedEx commercial invoice show the currency as USD at the bottom even though my store’s base currency is ZAR and customers pay in multiple currencies using Aelia Currency Switcher plugin?

The FedEx Module’s option "Order currency on Commercial Invoice" supports only the Fox Multi-Currency plugin and WooCommerce Multicurrency plugins. It does not support the Aelia Currency Switcher plugin. Therefore, even if you configure your store or plugin to display the customer's order currency with Aelia, the commercial invoice will default to showing the FedEx account currency (in your case, ZAR) or the WooCommerce store currency on the invoice. This limitation causes the invoice to still show USD at the bottom when the consignee address or order currency is detected as USD, leading to incorrect duties calculation.

Why does FedEx return shipping rates in my local currency instead of US Dollars even though my WooCommerce store and plugin currency are set to USD?

FedEx returns shipping rates in the currency associated with the billing address on your FedEx account. The plugin relies on the FedEx API, which provides rates in the FedEx account currency, not the WooCommerce or plugin settings currency. If your FedEx account is based in Chile, for example, rates will be returned in CLP (Chilean Pesos). To have rates displayed in US Dollars, you need to use a FedEx account billed in the United States or ensure your FedEx account settings are configured for USD billing.

Why do FedEx shipping rates sometimes display in a different currency on my site compared to fedex.com, and how can I reconcile this difference?

1. Identify the currency your FedEx plugin is configured to display on your website and the currency your FedEx account or fedex.com uses.
2. Convert the rates shown on your website to the currency used by FedEx using the current exchange rates for a valid comparison.
3. Ensure that your store’s multicurrency settings are consistent and do not mix currencies within a single shipment to avoid discrepancies.
4. After conversions, compare the adjusted rates on your site and FedEx’s website side-by-side to verify if they match.

Why didn't the "Display Labels in Browser" option appear in my PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin settings?

1. Check your current label Image Type setting.
2. Change it to PNG.
3. Save the settings.
4. The "Display Labels in Browser" checkbox will then become visible in the same Label Generation section.

Why are FedEx shipping rates showing excessively high amounts (e.g., 17,000 USD) for an international address, and how can I fix the currency conversion in PluginHive?

1. Identify the currency your FedEx account uses (e.g., MYR – Malaysian Ringgit).
2. Identify your store’s currency (e.g., USD).
3. Calculate the accurate conversion rate (e.g., 1 USD = 4.69 MYR).
4. In your WordPress admin, go to **WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping > FedEx > Rates & Services**.
5. Find the currency conversion section. Set the **FedEx Currency** to your FedEx account currency (e.g., MYR).
6. Enter the correct currency conversion rate in the **Conversion Rate** field (e.g., 4.69). This tells the plugin how to convert FedEx rates into your store’s currency.
7. Save the settings.

Which currency switcher plugins are fully compatible with the PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin for multi-currency order handling?

1. FOX-Currency Switcher Multi-Currency
2. WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency (provided by WPML)

Where can I find the compatible multi-currency plugins if they are not available in the WordPress plugin library?

• Aelia Currency Switcher: Available from the official Aelia website or WooCommerce extensions store.
• WooCommerce Currency Switcher (official): Available on the WooCommerce plugins/store site or official repositories linked from WooCommerce.
• FOX Multi-Currency plugin: Available on its official site or authorized resellers.

Where can I find the compatible multi-currency plugins if they are not available in the WordPress plugin library?

• Aelia Currency Switcher: Available on the official Aelia website or WooCommerce extensions store.
• Official WooCommerce Currency Switcher plugin: Available on the WooCommerce plugins/store site or official WooCommerce repositories.
• FOX Multi-Currency plugin: Available from its official site or authorized resellers.

What steps does PluginHive support typically follow to investigate tax miscalculation issues when currency switching causes incorrect conversions?

1. Requesting detailed evidence such as screencasts, logs, and product URLs.
2. Gaining secure access to the affected website’s admin panel to review settings and configurations directly.
3. Enabling the Live Rates feature temporarily to test real-time shipping and tax calculations in multiple currencies.
4. Testing the exact currency switcher plugin setup on their test environment using copies of the customer’s plugins.
5. Analyzing whether the plugin’s calculations and currency conversions are being applied consistently with the expected behavior of the currency switcher.
6. Providing guidance or fixes based on their findings to correct any miscalculations.

What specific changes are needed in the FedEx plugin and PH Hide plugin configuration to fix shipping display issues in mixed carts with free sample and paid products?

1. Disable any PH Hide plugin rules that hide shipping methods in the presence of free sample products when mixed with paid products. This ensures FedEx shipping is not unintentionally hidden.
2. In the FedEx plugin settings, configure the “Skip Products” feature by adding the Shipping Class used for free sample products. This causes FedEx to exclude samples during shipping rate calculation.
3. Confirm that the main paid products have a different Shipping Class so FedEx calculates shipping on these products only.
4. Test mixed carts to confirm that FedEx shipping options appear and are priced correctly based on paid products alone.

What should I verify about the order currency and consignee details when troubleshooting currency issues on FedEx commercial invoices?

When addressing currency display issues on commercial invoices, verify the following:

1. The consignee (ShipTo) address on the order — if located in the US, the order currency often defaults to USD in the invoice.
2. The order total currency in WooCommerce backend for the specific order (ensure it matches the expected currency).
3. Your FedEx account currency (should preferably match your store base currency for consistency).
4. Whether the "Order Currency in Commercial Invoice" setting is enabled or disabled in the FedEx plugin’s International Forms section, as this setting governs if order currency overrides the FedEx account currency on the invoice.

This information helps to diagnose why the commercial invoice might be showing a currency that leads to incorrect duty calculations.

What should I do if shipping rate conversions appear incorrect when using the WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin with WPML multi-currency?

1. Confirm that your WooCommerce base currency is set correctly and is consistent with how WPML applies conversion factors.
2. Verify your FedEx account and plugin currency settings; ideally, they should be the same to avoid miscalculations.
3. Avoid manually entering exchange rates in the plugin if your FedEx account currency and plugin currency match; use the Adjustment feature for minor rate tweaks.
4. Test shipping rates with known addresses and compare the returned FedEx rates with your site’s displayed rates to identify discrepancies.
5. If discrepancies remain, collect detailed information such as screenshots of cart shipping rates, FedEx official rates for the test address, and your current plugin configuration.
6. Share this information and your FedEx account credentials securely with PluginHive support for them to review your setup and provide specific resolution assistance.

What should I do if my current currency switcher plugin does not correctly convert shipping prices or manage order currencies in PluginHive’s FedEx Shipping plugin?

1. Verify which currency switcher plugin you are using.
2. If it is not one of the compatible plugins (FOX-Currency Switcher Multi-Currency or WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency), consider switching to one of these plugins for full compatibility.
3. Configure your store currency as SEK and set up the compatible currency switcher to handle front-end currency switching.
4. Ensure the PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin currency conversion settings are enabled according to the knowledge base article.
5. Test orders in multiple currencies to confirm shipping prices adjust correctly and invoices/labels display the intended currency (either switcher currency or base SEK based on your preference).

What should I do if I want PluginHive support to investigate shipment generation or currency conversion issues effectively?

1. Administrator access to your WordPress backend via a newly created user account specifically for support use.
2. Direct URLs to affected products or checkout pages where the issue occurs.
3. Full shipping addresses used during testing to replicate calculations accurately.
4. Copies or details of all active currency switching plugins and related configurations (e.g., plugin files or versions).
5. Logs, screencasts, or screenshots clearly demonstrating the errors or issues encountered.
6. Details about the exact steps leading to the problem (e.g., generating, voiding shipments, switching currencies) to enable exact replication.

What should I do if FedEx shipping rates seem too expensive despite proper address input and currency conversion in PluginHive?

1. Confirm that product weight and dimensions are accurate and reflect realistic packaging sizes. Oversized or very heavy products trigger higher FedEx fees.
2. Re-examine the currency conversion rate for accuracy and update it if exchange rates have changed.
3. Check for any surcharges or special FedEx services enabled (e.g., expedited delivery) that increase costs.
4. Verify if the destination address or country has any shipping restrictions or higher shipping zones applied.
5. Contact FedEx support or your account manager to ensure no account-specific rates or permissions affect pricing.
6. Enable **Debug Mode** temporarily in the plugin to obtain diagnostic logs and provide them to PluginHive support for detailed cost analysis.

What should I do if after PluginHive has corrected the currency conversion setting, I still see a $15-20 difference in shipping rates?

1. Confirm you are comparing the plugin’s rates with the exact FedEx account rates using the same shipment details and currency.
2. Provide screenshots showing the FedEx Shipping Manager rates next to the plugin rates for comparison.
3. Ensure no other charges or services (insurance, fuel surcharges, delivery area surcharges) are included or excluded inconsistently between the plugin and FedEx site.
4. Recheck that the plugin’s “Insurance Value Indicator” or other special service settings are correctly enabled or disabled to match your FedEx shipment.
5. Share a video or screencast demonstrating your process so support can rule out user input errors.
6. Submit a diagnostic report from the plugin Debug Mode for PluginHive to analyze the issue at a deeper level.

What information should I provide to PluginHive support to troubleshoot currency conversion and tax calculation issues with FedEx and Aelia Currency Switcher?

• Admin access to your WordPress backend with Administrator privileges, via a new user account created for support use.
• A direct product link on your site where the issue is occurring.
• The full shipping address used during the test to replicate calculations accurately.
• Copies of the currency switcher plugins installed (e.g., Aelia Currency Switcher plugin files) so that the support team can replicate your exact setup locally.
• Any relevant logs or screencasts showing the issue clearly.

What does the “Request Type” setting in the PluginHive FedEx plugin do, and how can it affect shipping price calculation?

The “Request Type” setting determines how the plugin requests rates from FedEx:

• **List Rates**: Requests a list of available shipping rates without modifications.
• **Account Rates**: Fetches rates as applied specifically to your FedEx account, incorporating negotiated rates and discounts.

If "List Rates" is selected instead of "Account Rates," the plugin may show standard published rates, excluding any negotiated discounts or account-specific charges, causing discrepancies between what customers see and what you are charged. For accurate pricing reflecting your FedEx account, ensure "Account Rates" is selected in the plugin settings. Also, avoid applying manual price adjustments that could conflict with real FedEx charges.

What are the correct steps to set up currency conversion for FedEx shipping rates in the PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin?

1. Identify your FedEx account currency (e.g., ILS) and your store’s base currency (e.g., USD).
2. Calculate the current conversion rate from your FedEx currency to your store currency (e.g., 0.30 for ILS to USD).
3. Go to the plugin settings in your WooCommerce admin panel.
4. Find the currency conversion settings and enter the correct conversion rate under the “Adjustment” tab rather than the “Conversion” tab.
5. Save the plugin settings.
6. Clear any cache and retest shipping rates on checkout.
7. Confirm the displayed rates match your manual currency conversion calculations.

We sell worldwide with multiple currencies but want the store base currency to remain SEK. How can I ensure the shipping rates are converted correctly for customers shopping in other currencies without changing the base currency?

• FOX-Currency Switcher Multi-Currency
• WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency

The FedEx currency used by the plugin is in Hungarian Forint (HUF), but my webshop operates in Euro (EUR) with fluctuating conversion rates. Can I change the FedEx currency to Euro in the plugin?

The FedEx currency used by the plugin must match the currency configured in your FedEx account. If your FedEx account is registered in Hungary with HUF as its currency, the plugin will use HUF for FedEx shipping rates. To manage currency differences, you can specify a conversion rate within the plugin’s currency settings to convert FedEx HUF charges into EUR for your webshop pricing. This allows you to handle fluctuating EUR-HUF rates manually according to your needs. For detailed steps and settings, please refer to the PluginHive knowledge base article on currency conversion here: https://www.pluginhive.com/knowledge-base/setting-woocommerce-fedex-shipping-plugin/#Currency_Conversion

Is there any workaround or alternative to display an estimated delivery date in customer emails?

1. Use the **Estimate Delivery plugin** by PluginHive, which allows you to manually configure an estimated delivery date. This manually set date can be displayed on the Order Received page, in emails, and on the My Account page. However, this estimate is not automatically derived from the carrier's actual estimated delivery date.
2. Enable the **FedEx Email Notification** option in the FedEx Plugin settings. This feature sends shipment creation email notifications directly from FedEx to recipients, keeping customers informed about their shipment status separately from your store emails.

Is there a way to have all invoices and shipping labels display the currency as SEK regardless of which currency the customer used during checkout?

Yes, the PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin can be configured to display all invoices and shipping labels in SEK, even if the customer paid in a different currency. This setting allows your store to keep invoices and labels consistent with the base currency, which is helpful if your payment gateway requires a fixed currency. By default, the plugin supports this use case. However, if you wish to show the customer's chosen currency on labels or invoices, that would require using the FOX-Currency Switcher Multi-Currency or WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency plugins, as they provide full multi-currency support on orders. Otherwise, the plugin will keep all documentation in your base currency (SEK).

Is there a programmatic way to get or display FedEx's estimated delivery date in customer emails?

PluginHive can provide a hook that returns the carrier's estimated delivery date for a specific order when called with the order parameter. However, this hook must be implemented on the customer side (your website or email template code), and PluginHive does not provide support for the implementation itself. This requires custom development on your part to fetch the date using the hook and insert it into the order emails.

Is it possible to immediately display to customers that FedEx is an available delivery option before they enter their address, such as showing "FedEx Shipping (enter your address to get a quote)"?

The PluginHive plugin does not support displaying custom text like "FedEx Shipping (enter your address to get a quote)" directly within the shipping options before the address is entered. Shipping methods and their availability, along with quotes, are only revealed after the customer provides a shipping address. To implement such a feature, you would need to work with your web developer to customize your website’s front-end or checkout page to display this kind of placeholder or informational message. This customization would be outside the scope of the PluginHive plugin’s default capabilities.

Is it possible to force the currency to USD specifically when FedEx is selected as the shipping method using the PluginHive plugin?

The PluginHive WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin itself does not have a built-in feature to force the currency display to USD when FedEx is selected. Currency switching is managed by your multi-currency plugin. To achieve this behavior:

1. Configure your multi-currency plugin (e.g., WOOCS) to detect when FedEx is selected or when an international shipping address is entered.
2. Set your multi-currency plugin rules to switch the currency to USD in these cases.
3. Then, adjust the FedEx plugin’s currency conversion rates accordingly.
4. If this configuration is not working as expected, please contact your multi-currency plugin’s support for assistance as they control currency display logic.

Is it possible to change the currency displayed on the invoice generated by the PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin?

The PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin uses the currency configured in your WooCommerce store settings. It does not provide an independent feature to change the currency specifically for shipping invoices. Any change in currency display on invoices needs to be handled by adjusting your WooCommerce currency settings or using third-party plugins that modify invoice currency formatting, rather than through the PluginHive plugin configuration.

Is it correct to manually set a currency conversion rate in the FedEx plugin to match my intended site currency?

1. Shipping rates fetched from FedEx are correctly converted and displayed in your site’s currency.
2. Accurate and transparent pricing for international shipping customers.
3. Consistency between displayed rates and your invoicing currency.

How should I configure the FedEx plugin to properly return multi-currency shipping values when using FOX – Currency Switcher Professional for WooCommerce with a base currency of USD and shipping rates provided by FedEx in CAD?

1. Set the "FedEx Currency" field in the plugin settings to "Canadian Dollar" since your FedEx account provides rates in CAD.
2. Enter the accurate conversion rate from CAD to USD in the "Adjustment" or currency conversion rate field. For example, use 0.710495 (1 CAD = 0.710495 USD). This conversion rate should reflect how the plugin converts FedEx CAD rates into your store currency (USD).
3. Keep your base currency as USD in WooCommerce and confirm that the FOX Currency Switcher’s default currency is also USD.
4. Ensure your Shipping Quote Type setting in the FedEx plugin is set to "Total Net Shipping Cost" to account for discounts, surcharges, and taxes correctly.
5. Test shipping calculations on your site by toggling currencies with the FOX Currency Switcher and confirming approximate shipping cost consistency relative to known FedEx rates.
6. Avoid changing Shipping Quote Type once set, as it is necessary for accurate rate calculation.

How does PluginHive’s licensing pricing work for sites and sub-domains?

PluginHive charges per license for each website or sub-domain separately. Even if multiple sub-domains exist under the same primary domain, each requires its own license purchase. Previously, there was a 5-site deal or multi-site discount, but this offer has been discontinued. Therefore, if you have multiple licenses across sub-domains, you must maintain and renew them individually, each at full price unless otherwise discounted by a support-issued coupon. For bulk purchases or multiple licenses, contacting support may help explore possible discounts or offers.

How does PluginHive handle situations where users want to promote the PluginHive plugin in exchange for referral or affiliate opportunities?

PluginHive offers an Affiliate Program as a separate channel for users interested in promoting their plugin and earning rewards. If you share a success story and are interested in such opportunities, PluginHive representatives can connect you with their Affiliate Program team who will provide further details and onboarding information. This program is distinct from success story publication and backlink considerations.

How do I configure FedEx currency settings when my FedEx account is Philippine-based but I want to display shipping rates in USD for international shipments?

Since your FedEx account is Philippine-based, follow these steps for currency configuration:

1. Set your WooCommerce store default currency in **WooCommerce > Settings > General** according to your preferred default (e.g., PHP).
2. In the FedEx plugin settings under the **Rates & Services** tab, set the FedEx currency as Philippine Peso because this needs to match your FedEx account.
3. Use a multi-currency plugin (such as WOOCS) to convert and display the currency to USD for international customers or specific shipping zones.
4. Configure the conversion rate correctly within the FedEx plugin, matching the multi-currency plugin’s currency conversion rates.
5. This method ensures the FedEx plugin communicates with FedEx using the PHP currency as required but displays USD to international customers via your multi-currency plugin.

How do I configure currency conversion rates in the PluginHive FedEx plugin when my store currency differs from my FedEx account currency?

1. In the PluginHive FedEx plugin settings, locate the currency configuration section.
2. Set the FedEx currency to match your FedEx account currency (e.g., MYR).
3. Enter the current conversion rate from the FedEx account currency to your store currency (e.g., MYR to USD conversion rate).
4. Save the settings.

How do I configure currency conversion rates in the PluginHive FedEx plugin when my store currency differs from my FedEx account currency?

1. Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard.
2. Navigate to **WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping > FedEx > Rates & Services**.
3. Locate the **FedEx Currency** dropdown and select the currency of your FedEx account (e.g., Malaysian Ringgit – MYR).
4. Enter the current conversion rate from your FedEx account currency to your store currency in the **Conversion Rate** field (e.g., if 1 MYR = 0.211887 USD, enter “0.211887”). Use the latest accurate exchange rate to ensure correct shipping cost calculation.
5. Save the settings.

How can I view prices in USD currency using the PluginHive plugin when my store currency is USD and my account currency is COL?

1. Access the PluginHive plugin settings.
2. Locate the currency conversion configuration area.
3. Set the conversion rate from 1 COL to 1 USD according to your required exchange rate.
4. Save the settings.

How can I troubleshoot and verify FedEx shipping rate conversions and plugin settings for multi-currency stores?

1. Enable FedEx logging from the plugin settings to capture rate request and response details.
2. Perform shipping rate tests for multiple destinations including domestic (Canada), US, and international addresses.
3. Compare the FedEx plugin shipping rates displayed in your WooCommerce cart against rates obtained directly from the FedEx Canada Online Rating Tool or your FedEx account.
4. Note and document the currencies used in each test, the FedEx plugin “FedEx Currency” setting, and the adjustment/conversion rates applied.
5. Verify the Shipping Quote Type is correctly configured as "Total Net Shipping Cost."
6. Use the logged FedEx response data to confirm the currency in which FedEx returns the rates matches your plugin settings.
7. Cross-reference the exchange rates configured in the plugin against current market exchange rates and those used by your FOX Currency Switcher.
8. Systematically test switching currencies on your site with FOX and observe if shipping rates convert proportionally and reasonably based on your adjustment factors.
9. If inconsistencies appear, especially with currencies other than CAD and USD, package this data with logs and screenshots to contact support for deeper investigation.

How can I test FedEx commercial invoices displaying correct currency amounts on a staging site setup?

Testing commercial invoices on a staging site involves these steps:

• WooCommerce configured for multi-currency (e.g., WPML with Fox Multi-Currency).
• FedEx Shipping Plugin installed and configured as on production.

2. Place test orders with desired currency selection (e.g., EUR for international sales).

3. Generate FedEx shipping labels and commercial invoices for these test orders.

• All currency amounts and codes on the commercial invoice match the order currency (EUR).
• No mixed currencies or incorrect conversion rates are shown.

5. If currency display issues occur, review FedEx plugin’s "FedEx Currency" settings.

• Provide staging site admin and FTP/SFTP credentials with secure access.
• Share screenshots or recordings of the currency mismatch.

7. Allow PluginHive technical team to log in and replicate the issue for faster resolution.

Testing on staging ensures minimal disruption and clear identification of any plugin or configuration issues before applying fixes on the live store.

How can I show a placeholder shipping price before actual delivery details are entered?

1. Setting a default or minimum shipping rate in your shipping settings or app configuration.
2. Showing this placeholder prominently on the shipping selection screen.
3. Updating the shipping cost dynamically once the customer enters their delivery postcode or address and the system calculates the exact rate based on zone or API fetched data.

How can I set up different prices for the same product in PluginHive?

PluginHive relies on the product configuration managed by WordPress or your eCommerce platform, which allows only a single price per product by default. Setting multiple prices for the exact same product is not supported. To offer different pricing, consider the following approaches:

1. Create separate product variations or SKUs with their own prices if your store supports product variants (e.g., size, color).
2. Use user roles or customer groups with special pricing plugins or extensions that work in conjunction with your store, if you want pricing to differ by user segment.
3. Set up discount rules or coupon codes to adjust prices conditionally.
4. Alternatively, provide separate products representing the different prices you want to offer.

If you share your specific business scenario, more tailored guidance can be provided.

How can I set the default FedEx shipping price display to USD instead of Philippine Peso on the Cart and Checkout pages, even though I already set FedEx currency to USD in the plugin?

To display FedEx shipping prices in USD on Cart and Checkout pages, especially when using FedEx exclusively for international shipments, please consider the following:

1. The PluginHive FedEx plugin itself does not handle multi-currency conversions or currency switching on the frontend; it only displays the shipping rates provided by FedEx or converted according to your plugin settings.
2. If you are using a multi-currency plugin such as WOOCS, the currency display depends primarily on your multi-currency plugin configuration.
3. You should configure the multi-currency plugin to force USD currency display for international shipping addresses or when the FedEx shipping method is selected.
4. Ensure that your WooCommerce store’s default currency matches the settings in your multi-currency plugin and the FedEx plugin’s configuration (FedEx Currency typically set to Philippine Peso if the FedEx account is PH-based).
5. After you configure your multi-currency plugin properly to detect international shipping addresses and switch currency to USD, adjust the currency conversion rate within the PluginHive FedEx plugin settings accordingly (e.g., conversion rate from USD to PHP).
6. For the specific currency display behavior or zone-based currency switching (e.g., USD for international and PHP for local), refer to your multi-currency plugin documentation or support team, as this functionality is outside PluginHive’s plugin scope.

Summary: To force FedEx shipping rates to display in USD, set this behavior in your multi-currency plugin based on shipping zones or selected shipping methods, then adjust conversion rates in PluginHive plugin accordingly.

How can I resolve errors related to currency conversion affecting the freight and tax values when switching currencies with the PluginHive FedEx plugin?

1. Understand that the plugin recalculates shipping and tax values directly in the switched currency instead of converting from base currency amounts, which can lead to discrepancies.
2. Enable the plugin’s Live Rates feature temporarily to test whether real-time rates and calculations update correctly for different currencies. Live Rates fetches current shipping rates and tax amounts dynamically, improving accuracy with currency switchers.
3. For safe testing on a live site, coordinate with PluginHive support to enable Live Rates remotely and temporarily, ensuring it is disabled immediately after testing to avoid live order disruptions.
4. Verify compatibility and settings for your currency switcher plugin (e.g., Aelia Currency Switcher) to ensure it works well with the FedEx plugin calculation method.
5. Share detailed information with support—including your store setup, product and shipping examples, and any error logs—to get precise assistance.

How can I display FedEx shipping rates in US Dollars at checkout if my FedEx account is based in another country with a different currency?

1. In the WooCommerce FedEx plugin settings, set the "FedEx Currency" option to your FedEx account’s currency (e.g., CLP).
2. Enter the current conversion rate from your FedEx account currency to US Dollars (e.g., CLP to USD) in the plugin settings under the currency conversion section.
3. Save the settings.

How can I determine if currency conversion issues with my FedEx plugin and the CURCY multi-currency plugin are caused by compatibility problems?

• The FedEx plugin is compatible with several multi-currency plugins, specifically WooCommerce Multi-Currency, Aelia Currency Switcher, WOOCS Multi-Currency, and FOX
• Currency Switcher (Multi-Currency). Since the CURCY plugin is not on this list and has not been tested with the FedEx plugin, you can determine if the issue stems from compatibility by temporarily switching to one of the supported currency switcher plugins. If the issue persists with a supported plugin like FOX
• Currency Switcher, then the problem may lie within the FedEx plugin itself or your specific store setup. This approach helps isolate whether CURCY is the cause of the currency conversion errors.

How can I confirm whether the currency conversion between FedEx shipping rates and my WooCommerce store currency is working correctly with multiple currencies configured?

1. Test the checkout process switching between your store’s base currency and secondary currencies, noting all shipping and tax amounts displayed.
2. Enable the Live Rates feature temporarily to fetch real-time shipping rates directly from FedEx in the switched currency. This reduces discrepancies caused by static conversion.
3. Observe if the converted shipping rates and taxes update accurately during currency switches without manual conversion errors.
4. If discrepancies appear, compare configurations in both PluginHive FedEx plugin and the currency switcher plugin to ensure compatibility and correct setup of conversion parameters.
5. Contact PluginHive support with test screenshots, logs, and site access if conversions still do not align.

How can I configure the WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin to display shipping rates correctly with the WPML (WCML) multi-currency plugin?

1. Ensure that your WooCommerce base currency is correctly set in your WooCommerce general settings.
2. The shipping rates returned by FedEx are in your FedEx account's account currency, so ensure your FedEx account currency and plugin currency settings match or are correctly accounted for.
3. You do not need to enter exchange rates manually in the plugin when your FedEx account currency matches the plugin currency.
4. Instead of entering exchange rates, use the “Adjustment” settings in the plugin to fine-tune your displayed rates if they slightly differ from FedEx’s official rates.
5. If you observe incorrect rate conversions, verify that the multi-currency plugin’s conversion rates are applied to amounts in your store’s base currency as expected, because WCML assumes rates are given in the base currency.
6. For exact matching of rates, providing your FedEx account credentials securely to the support team can help them check your account configuration and plugin settings directly.

How can I configure the price adjustment feature in the PluginHive FedEx plugin to compensate for surcharges or currency conversions?

1. Navigate to the PluginHive FedEx plugin settings in your WordPress admin area.
2. Go to the "Rates & Services" tab.
3. Locate the price adjustment section associated with the shipping methods you want to modify.
4. Set a percentage or fixed amount adjustment (e.g., 30%) to increase or decrease the displayed rates accordingly.
5. Save the settings and clear any site caches.
6. Test new orders to confirm the adjustment impacts shipping costs as intended.

How can I change the currency displayed on the FedEx plugin invoice to South African Rands (ZAR) instead of USD when using a multi-currency setup in WooCommerce?

1. Confirm that your FedEx account is registered in South Africa and set to use ZAR as the billing currency.
2. In the FedEx plugin settings within WooCommerce, navigate to **Plugin settings >> Rates & Services tab >> FedEx currency**, and verify that ZAR is selected.
3. Understand that the FedEx plugin may not fully support all multi-currency plugins. Compatibility is guaranteed with the FOX Multi-Currency plugin, Aelia Currency Switcher plugin, and official WooCommerce currency switcher plugins.
4. If you are using a different multi-currency plugin (e.g., YITH Multi Currency Switcher), the FedEx plugin might not properly reflect currency changes on invoices. In this case, consider switching to one of the recommended compatible multi-currency plugins.

How am I billed for shipping labels generated through the PluginHive FedEx plugin, and in which currency will the charges apply?

When you generate a shipping label using the PluginHive FedEx plugin, the payment gateway linked to your FedEx account is charged directly for the shipping cost. The billing will occur in the same currency as your FedEx account is set up to use. Therefore, if your FedEx account is denominated in US dollars, charges will be billed in USD regardless of your customer’s currency. To ensure billing aligns with your expectations, verify your FedEx account currency settings.

Does the plugin support tax calculation for shipments based on different provinces?

Yes, the plugin automatically applies taxes on shipments by detecting the destination province. You can configure province-specific tax rules within the plugin, ensuring appropriate tax is added based on the shipment address.

Can your plugin help configure currency conversion for shipping rates, so that the shipping price changes correctly when switching currencies on my WooCommerce store?

Yes, the PluginHive FedEx Shipping plugin supports currency conversion for shipping rates. You can configure the plugin to convert shipping prices based on the selected currency. This ensures that when customers switch currencies, the shipping price updates accordingly. For detailed steps, refer to the PluginHive knowledge base article on currency conversion available here: https://www.pluginhive.com/knowledge-base/setting-woocommerce-fedex-shipping-plugin/#Currency_Conversion. If you use a compatible currency switcher plugin, the shipping rates will reflect the accurate converted amount automatically.

Can the FedEx plugin display duties and taxes as a separate line item during checkout if the shipping cost is shown as free or zero?

No, the FedEx plugin relies on the FedEx API which integrates duties and taxes within shipping service rates. It cannot separate duties and taxes as a distinct line item independently if shipping cost is set to zero or hidden. To offer free shipping, use WooCommerce Free Shipping methods, but duties and taxes will not appear separately—they are included in the FedEx service rates returned by the API. Duties and taxes remain payable by the customer if the “Duties & Tax Payer” is set as “Receiver” and are collected by FedEx at delivery, but the plugin does not show them as separate charges apart from shipping rates at checkout.

Can PluginHive support help resolve issues caused by conflicts between the FedEx plugin and currency switcher or minimum order amount plugins?

1. Checking or reporting issues to the respective plugins’ support teams for problems specific to currency switch or minimum amount validation.
2. Using PluginHive support to confirm FedEx plugin rates are being fetched and displayed properly.
3. Testing the FedEx plugin functionality in isolation (without other plugins active) to verify base plugin behavior.
4. Providing PluginHive support with test cases or order details only when FedEx plugin-specific issues occur.
5. Coordinating support efforts between plugin vendors if plugin conflicts are strongly suspected for complex configurations.

Can I charge a fixed shipping price like $15 for all countries even if FedEx charges varying amounts? Is it advisable to absorb the difference myself?

Yes, you can set a fixed shipping rate (e.g., $15) for all countries regardless of actual FedEx shipping costs. This is possible by configuring flat shipping rates in WooCommerce or your shipping plugin settings. Absorbing the difference (such as FedEx charging €20 to the US while charging customers $15) is a business decision. It can be beneficial for competitive pricing and customer satisfaction but consider your profit margins carefully to ensure it is sustainable.
