Sorry Tomek I’ve been wrongly replying to no-reply
The main reason I want to set up zones is for eligibility for free shipping over a cart value of $200. Free shipping is only available for orders with a cart value over $200, are not in a remote area and which do not contain heavy items
And I presume I need some message at checkout explaining to users their status regarding free shipping, based on their location and whether they have heavy items in their cart . Is this something I can do within your plugin?

In our Australia Post plugin you can handle the “over $200” and “not in a remote area” parts by combining the free shipping threshold with separate zones (as I described above).
The “no heavy items” condition isn’t available in this plugin, and that would require an additional solution to set weight-based restrictions.
You could combine Australia Post Live Rates with Flexible Shipping PRO – that way, the live rates from Australia Post are still used, but Flexible Shipping PRO can apply extra rules, like hiding free shipping when the cart contains heavy items.
This is a paid solution, so we can’t go into details about it here on the ww.wp.xz.cn forum, but you can find more information on our website.

As for displaying an additional message at checkout, we don’t have a built-in solution for that right now. Customers would need to rely on the shipping method’s name to communicate the free shipping conditions.
