We are delighted to announce that for all our WooCommerce customers, Shiptheory is now fully compatible with YITH's WooCommerce Delivery Date plugin.
WooCommerce Delivery Date plugin allows your customers to book a specific date and time slot for the delivery of their ordered products.
You can also set a minimum of processing days for different products or categories, add a fee for specific time slots, and set a maximum number of deliveries per day. Additionally, you can select your holidays and cut off times to prevent orders from being placed during days and times you cannot deliver.
Most importantly, after you have installed the plugin, an admin can control and change delivery details, and various other settings without a developer's need.
With YITH WooCommerce Delivery Date plugin, your customers can now choose the exact day, and time they will receive the products they purchased, edit the shipping date later if they wish, and decide which courier they want to use.
You can see the plugin in action on this live demo page.
Shiptheory and YITH WooCommerce Delivery Date plugin
It is possible to download the intended shipping date from orders in WooCommerce to schedule shipping labels and deliveries in Shiptheory. WooCommerce does not provide a shipping date field by default, but don't worry; we have you covered!
Shiptheory fully supports the YITH WooCommerce Delivery Date plugin, which can add a shipping date field to your WooCommerce store. You can connect the plugin to your account in seconds through your WooCommerce advanced settings.
From then onwards, any orders that come into Shiptheory from your WooCommerce store with a value in the shipping date field will have that shipping date set in Shiptheory.
For more information on how you can schedule shipping labels in your Shiptheory account using the YITH WooCommerce Delivery Date plugin, please read this guide.
The YITH team are WooCommerce experts, so if you have any queries regarding the shipping date field, please reach out to their team. If you need help connecting on the Shiptheory end, our support team will be more than happy to help you get up-and-running.
