Guide of Magento 2 Multi Vendor Table Rate Shipping Plugin

Customers will get a zip folder and they have to extract the contents of this zip folder on their system.

The extracted folder has an src folder, inside the src folder you have the app folder. You need to transfer this app folder into the Adobe Commerce root directory on the server as shown below.

If you have downloaded the module from Adobe Commerce Cloud Connect then unzip the respective extension zip.

Now create Webkul(vendor) then Mpshipping(module) name folder inside your magento root directory as app/code/Webkul/Mpshipping

 Then move all module’s files inside /app/code/Webkul/Mpshipping/ folder in magento root directory.

After the upload, you can see the folders in your Magento 2 Root Directory.

Then after the successful installation, you have to run these commands in the Adobe Commerce directory:

php bin/magento setup:upgrade

php bin/magento setup:di:compile

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

After running the commands, you have to flush the cache from Adobe Commerce admin panel by navigating through->System->Cache management as shown below.

For the multilingual support, the admin will navigate through Store->Configuration->General ->Locale Options.

Then select the locale as German (the language into which admin want to translate his store content).

If a user wants to translate their module from English to German.

Then they need to follow the path app/code/Webkul/Mpshipping/i18n in their unzipped Magento 2 Mpshipping folder and will get a CSV file with name “en_US.csv”.

Now they will rename that CSV as “de_DE.csv” and translate all right side content after the comma into the German language.

After editing the CSV, save it and then upload it to the path app/code/Webkul/Mpshipping/i18n where they have installed Adobe Commerce on the server.

The module will get translated into the German Language. It supports both RTL and LTR languages.

The user can edit the CSV like the image below.

How to Get the Google API Keys

After the module installation, the seller can find the option of adding the shipping rates from the CSV file under “Table Rate Shipping>Manage Shipping” tab.

Example Table Rate Superset –

Consider that we have two sellers –

Seller(S1) with a product(P1) and the seller(S2) with a product(P2).

Now, if the sellers (S1) and (S2) have set up their superset shipping name as “Best Way Delivery” and their product’s (P1) and (P2) price lies between the shipping price range.

Then when a customer puts these products (P1) and (P2) in to the cart and goes to the checkout the customer will see the “Best Way Delivery” method displayed.

The  shipping cost that is reflected would be the sum of the shipping price of sellers products(P1+P2).

Seller S1’s  Superset –

Seller S2’s Superset –

Note: Shipping method name should be the same either adding as a seller superset or seller table rate shipping to show on the shopping cart page.

Let’s consider an example like Seller(S1) with a product(P1) and the seller(S2) with a product(P2).

Now, if the seller (S1) set up their table rate shipping name as “Flat rate” and cost (C1) and (S2) set up their table rate shipping name as “Flat rate” and cost (C2) and superset shipping name as “Flat rate” and cost (C3).

Then a shopping cart page customer will see the “Flat-rate” shipping method and price will be (C1+C3) because Superset has the highest priority.

so when the superset is applicable to the cart then shipping rule will not apply.

Set Location

From here the admin can easily set their location which helps in calculating the distance by shipping rule.

The seller needs to enter their location, the as per the location selected the latitude and longitude will get automatically fetched.

Prioritize workflow of shipping method name will work as structure below –

Seller superset shipping>> Seller table rate shipping>>Admin superset shipping>> Admin table rate shipping

Now,  the buyer will add the product to the shopping cart and will View and Edit the shopping cart to estimate the shipping and tax. After this, the buyer will select the Table Rate – Best Way Shipping and tap the “Proceed To Checkout” button.

Tapping the “Proceed To Checkout” button will bring the below page where the buyer can see the selected shipping address and the shipping method. Here, click the “Next” button to proceed further.

The customers can also see the selected Shipping Method on the Order Review page as well. Clicking the “Place Order” button will complete the purchase.

Note: In the module, the shipping rate will be calculated according to the seller’s product weight and customer’s delivery address.

Shipping By distance

The customer can also select the shipping method based on the distance between the seller or admin origin and the destination from the checkout page easily.

After the order has been place the customer can view the order details under their account with the total shipping charges as shown below.

Once the order place by the customer then the seller can see that order in their “Order History” as pending status. Please check the below image for the better understanding.
