---|---|---|
Whether you need to fill in the address | clogged | be |
Show location in checkout | stand-alone module | Mixed rows with distribution methods |
Tax calculation basis | pick-up address | Store Address |
Degree of customization | your (honorific) | lower (one's head) |
Is it based on distribution area restrictions | clogged | be |

Known limitations

- If there are multiple packages in the checkout, the system combines these packages as a whole and calculates them using the same pickup selection addresstaxes
- If there are some packages in the order that cannot be picked up, the pickup function will be disabled as a whole
- The Pickup feature is always visible to all users, regardless of customer address or location. If you need to limit the scope, you need to use the old version of the feature to do so.
summarize
WooCommerce Blocks' local pickup feature simplifies process configuration and improves front-end performance. It can provide convenient store pickup service for different customers, and calculate taxes and fees with specific addresses. This feature is especially suitable for scenarios with offline stores and mixed e-commerce + physical operations. If more complex regional control or logical judgment is required, you can continue to use the traditional local self-pickup function with it. It is recommended to choose and combine the configuration according to your business needs.
