Thank you for replying. I did read the documentation before I asked my questions – I’ve just reread it, but I can’t see what I’m doing wrong. Or is this just something that happens and can’t be prevented? I’d really appreciate a steer with this.
many thanks again.

Can you please explain to me what you are trying to achieve with the shipping so I can tell you how it should be setup.
How do you want the shipping cost to behave for 1 item and multiple items?

Hi – thank you for getting back to me. http://www.whitehallstudio.co.uk/category/shop/ is the site. There is a £4.95 shipping charge no matter how many items are being posted. I have set this up as the ‘base shipping cost’. I used the shortcode [wp_cart_button name=”Item name” price=”25″ shipping=”0.001″] for the items. The shipping cost shows as £4.95 for the first few items and then changes to £4.96.
Hope that makes sense.

the issue is quite clear : with 5 items in the shopping cart with a schippingcost of .001 you are at .005 which will be rounded to .01 …thus it adds .01 to you overall shipping cost 4,95 … which is 4.96
with 15 items you will be at 4.97 … try it
:-))
