A shop has been developed to sell merchandise to raise funds here:

Unfortunately the previous developer was not able to configure the shipping so that items were combined on checkout and buyers charged correctly.
We have purchased the WooCommerce Aus Post plugin and tried setting up boxes within this but it doesn't seem to be adding up the product dimensions/weights correctly. e.g the stickers can be sent in an envelope which costs 70c to send but on checkout, the shipping costs are calculated at $4.65?
An overview of the requirements and problem is below:
Due to their size, the balls and bags (cat 1) will not fit in a letterbox so need to be sent via parcel. Postage cost: $7.20+$1 handling/packing
The stickers and id tags (cat 2) can all fit in a standard envelope as they are small enough to fit in a letterbox. Postage cost: 70c + $1 handling/packing
We need a solution which allows the follow:
- up to 10 cat 2 items to be send in 1 standard envelope (before the envelope gets too thick)
- if a ball or bag is selected, parcel postage rates apply
- cat 2 items can be added to a cat 1 order with total cost dependant on weight. i.e if someone orders 1 ball, 10 stickers, 10 id tags could be added to the parcel for the same postage costs.

If the above makes sense and you have experience insetting up woo commerce shops with combined shipping, please bid. Any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
We need this completed ASAP
Thanks
Hello Sir, I ready your requirements and its very clear that shipping costs for stickers and tags are not calculated properly due to WooCommerce Aus Post plugin not calculating box size properly as per products size and weight.
You also proposed the solution as requirement that we can ship 10 cat-2 items in an envelop and cat-1 items be shipped through parcel and cost of parcel shipping be determined based on the weight of the product. Also if cat-1 and cat-2 items are mixed then they will be parcelled and parcel shipping cost be determined through the weight of total products on cart in that case.
I would like to propose that by customising the WooCommerce Aus Post plugin I can achieve this. I have the experience in handling different shipping needs of some of the clients as per their business process so I am sure of doing this fast too - 4 days I need. But if you think timeline is not ok, let me know, I will try to do it sooner.
Thanks and Regards
Ritesh.
