The Shipping Labels for DHL eCommerce APAC<\/strong> plugin, developed by Algoleap Technologies Pvt Ltd<\/strong>, automates your shipping workflow by connecting your WooCommerce store to DHL eCommerce APAC services \u2014 with full support for WooCommerce HPOS<\/strong> and now automatic tracking status updates via Webhooks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Key Features<\/h3>\n\n
    \n
  • Generate and print shipping labels directly from WooCommerce admin.<\/li>\n
  • Automatically track shipments and update order status via Webhooks.<\/li>\n
  • Offer DHL shipping options at checkout.<\/li>\n
  • Calculate accurate shipping rates based on destination, weight, and dimensions.<\/li>\n
  • Supports WooCommerce HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage).<\/li>\n
  • Easy-to-use interface for generating and printing shipping labels.<\/li>\n

    New in Version 1.1.8<\/h3>\n\n
      \n

    • Fixed: Fatal Error on Order Edit Screen (Critical Fix)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

        \n
      • Resolved \"Call to a member function get_data() on bool\" crash occurring on line 108 of the shipping label class.<\/li>\n
      • Root cause: $getOrderproductmname<\/code> was a redundant second wc_get_order()<\/code> call that could return false<\/code> (bool) when the order ID variable was undefined, causing a fatal error when get_data()<\/code> was called on it.<\/li>\n
      • Fix: Removed the redundant wc_get_order()<\/code> call entirely. The already-resolved $dhl_order<\/code> order object is now reused directly, which is guaranteed valid by the guard above it.<\/li>\n
      • $dhl_order_id<\/code> has been restored and is always correctly set from $dhl_order->get_id()<\/code>.<\/li>\n
      • The order guard has been strengthened from a loose truthy check (!$dhl_order<\/code>) to a strict type check (!$dhl_order instanceof WC_Order<\/code>), preventing any non-order value from passing through.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/li>\n

      • Fixed: Fatal Error on Cash on Delivery Field (Critical Fix)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

          \n
        • Resolved \"Call to a member function get_total() on null\" crash occurring on line 434 of the shipping label class.<\/li>\n
        • Root cause: The Cash on Delivery input field in the meta box HTML was still referencing the old $getOrderproductmname<\/code> variable, which no longer exists after the above fix.<\/li>\n
        • Fix: Replaced $getOrderproductmname->get_total()<\/code> with $dhl_order->get_total()<\/code>, which is the correct, already-validated order object.<\/li>\n
        • All remaining references to $getOrderproductmname<\/code> have been removed from the file \u2014 a full scan confirms zero occurrences remain.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/li>\n

        • Improved: Order Object Handling<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

            \n
          • Eliminated all redundant wc_get_order()<\/code> calls inside the meta box render function.<\/li>\n
          • Order data, items, and totals are now all retrieved from a single validated $dhl_order<\/code> instance.<\/li>\n
          • Reduces database queries per page load on the order edit screen.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
