Hey @dealer58, that’s because you have front-end logging enabled on your site. The function to show these is merely to troubleshoot if things go wrong.
You can disable it at WooCommerce > Status > WooCommerce Services:

Ok I see got it
I switched it on because I’m getting errors in the log and I thought it would help me figure out what it was but that didn’t help
This is what I’m getting in the log right now:
<Number>80040B18</Number>
<Description>An error has occurred with the service. Please contact the system administrator, or try again.</Description>
<Source>USPSCom::DoAuth</Source>
</Error> (calculate_shipping)
05-23-2018 @ 20:37:05 – Error: Unexpected USPS Response: <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<Error>
<Number>80040B18</Number>
<Description>An error has occurred with the service. Please contact the system administrator, or try again.</Description>
<Source>USPSCom::DoAuth</Source>
</Error> (calculate_shipping)
When I went back to settings it was showing an error only under “rest of the world zones”
Now I have the whole world with errors!:
USPSUnited States (US) Shipping Zone
The most recent rate request failed
Request was made 2 hours ago – check logs below or edit service settings
USPSRest of the World Shipping Zone
The most recent rate request failed
Request was made 5 days ago – check logs below or edit service settings
but I believe I have all the fields filled in correctly.
Then I need to understand why the cart is returning Flat Rate with no fees (zero cost)
Lastly how do I give a product Free Shipping without a coupon,
Hello @dealer58,
USPS is currently experiencing an outage that’s affecting our services. I do apologize for this. You can monitor the status of the USPS API outage here: https://www.shippingapimonitor.com/
In the mean time, setting a fallback rate will allow customers to check out during the outage. You can read more about setting up the fallback rate here: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-services/#section-4
Then I need to understand why the cart is returning Flat Rate with no fees (zero cost)
You might have a “Flat Rate” shipping method in your Shipping Zone that is set to a flat rate of $0.
Lastly how do I give a product Free Shipping without a coupon,
Check out this great blog post by Metorik for a few different ways to offer free shipping per-product: https://metorik.com/blog/apply-free-shipping-to-certain-products-in-woocommerce
We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
