 * Hi, is it possible and how to make the delivery option chosen by default when
   it appears? I.e. when a user completes the delivery form and he is within the
   delivery area the option for choosing the delivery appears. However, the option
   for personal pickup is marked. Can I change that?

 * We will try to implement that the first available Shipping method (according 
   to the sorting in Shipping zones)
    will be choosen. So it’s up to the user to
   control the sorting.

 * Not sure I understood. The shipping methods in the shipping zones 1-delivery 
   2-personal takeaway. On the frontend when the user completes the form two options
   are shown, with the 2 one marked and displayed below the 1 one.
    “So it’s up 
   to the user to control the sorting.” – you mean admin or the client?
 * Thanks.

 * Yes we will try to change that, so the first one will be marked.

 * Hi there, I saw you made an update for the shipping method selector with the 
   release 2.1.5. Was it supposed to change the chosen shipping method after inserting
   the address within the zone? Or did the update was about something else.
    Thanks.

 * It will choose the first one of the accepted shipping methods if there are several.

 * Ok, so I think it won’t work for me. In my case there is only takeaway option
   visible at the checkout if no address is inserted. When a user enters address
   and it is within the zone, shipping option appears over the takeaway radiobutton,
   but the takeaway is still chosen. I am looking for a solution that will automatically
   change chosen option to shipping if applicable.

 * In woocommerce shipping zone settings, which method is first in your list?

 * I have it configured like this: [https://gyazo.com/210b5099239ac132bef0b2a9dbc2d665](https://gyazo.com/210b5099239ac132bef0b2a9dbc2d665)
   
   Unless I should create a shipping zone one level up in the settings?

 * You are correct, it works in prem version, but something went wrong when we added
   to free version.

 * Still no luck :/ I have tried with the default ‘takeaway’ for other regions and
   created new zone that included whole country with only takeaway option. When 
   inserting an address outside of the zone none of the options is available. Whereas
   when inserting the address within the zone only a delivery is shown (without 
   takeaway, which also should be available to choose, even if a user is within 
   the zone).
    So what I’m getting at is a scenarios like these: 1. User outside
   of the zone or the one that did not put any address has only a takeaway option
   2. After inserting address within the zone the delivery option is revealed and
   automatically chosen, but with a takeaway option still available to choose.
 * The idea behind that is that users insert their addresses, knowing that they 
   are within the delivery zone, but they don’t notice/ forget to choose the delivery
   option, leaving the selector to takeaway (while the first one is paid extra and
   second one not).
 * I would be happy to purchase the pro version if it would provide such a solution
   🙂

 * Nope, this is the only one, apart from the default Woocommerce Storefront shipping.

 * You must put shipping methods in same Zone normally. Because in Woocommerce once
   you get in to one Zone you will not get out.

 * Ok, so I have both methods in one Shipping zone and it works as initially.
 * Other thing I’ve noticed – the system does not validates city. You can enter 
   only the street with number that is within the zone and write ‘blabla’ in the
   city and you still can order a delivery. Is it you or me?
