By default, the plugin allows adding multiple shipping addresses to the orders for all the products of your shop by enabling the related option from the plugin settings dashboard. Once enabled, you can choose whether to allow also guest users to set additional shipping addresses through the option Allow guest users.

If you wish to exclude certain products or categories from the multi-shipping feature, you can do it by adding them to the related lists available in the plugin dashboard.

The plugin supports variable products and allows your users to add a different shipping address for each single product variation.

When adding two or more of the same product to the cart, users can choose to ship a specific quantity to different shipping addresses.

When clicking on Ship this item to other addresses, the plugin automatically splits the product quantity that can be then adjusted depending on the user’s need.

In the example below, the customer has added 3 Cherokee T-shirts to the cart.

After clicking on Ship this item to other addresses, the product quantity splits and the user can select from the drop-down the shipping addresses previously added.

For higher quantities, the user can manage how many of the same product to ship to each address added.

The plugin allows the administrator to edit the shipping status of the products associated with each shipping address. To edit the status, go to the order details and choose the one you want to set from Processing, Shipped, Cancelled, and Returned.

From order details, you can also edit the shipping addresses data.

Users can manage their shipping addresses both on Checkout and My Account page. For every single address, they can apply the following actions: add, delete, and change the data.

Checkout page:

My Account page:

The site administrator has the possibility to enable the option Enable this email notification to notify users of a shipping status change.

If the option is active, users will receive an automatic email whenever their shipping status has changed.  The administrator can customize the email subject, heading, and body.

In order to enable to integration between the Multiple Shipping Addresses plugin and Local pickup, you will need to set local pickup as a shipping method.

After that, the customer will be able to choose Local pickup as a ‘destination’ when defining the packages to ship to multiple addresses.
