Developer Advisory: Flat rate shipping bug reappearance in 9.1- dot release coming.

The flat rate shipping bug from 9.0 has resurfaced due to a manual exclusion of the fix from 9.1. The details and the fix for the issue are exactly the same as in the previous release, and the details are available in the post: Developer Advisory: Flat rate shipping separators in WooCommerce 9.0.1 .

How Can I Tell If This Affects Me?

You may be affected if you have defined one or more Flat Rate shipping options;ย andย if you have set the thousands and decimal separator fields to the exact same symbol.

Immediate Actions We Are Taking

We are issuing the missed PR in a forthcoming release of 9.1.2 by EOD.

What Action Should I Take?

If you have Flat Rate shipping options enabled, take a moment to check your settings and read through the previous advisory post.

If you are currently utilizing the Flat Rate shipping option, please set your thousands input toย ,ย and the decimal input toย .ย . Or, conversely, if you typically use aย .ย in your thousands input โ€“ make sure your decimal input is then aย ,ย .


Keep yourself in the loop!

    It’s strange, at 12th July 4:20pm UTC my sites via wordpress offer me the upgrade to dot release 9.1.2, but in github is still 9.1.1 the last release marked, and in the current page of the plugin in wordpress says that the last update is 21hs ago (the 9.1.1), in turn if I choose to download it download 9.1. 1, and if I go to advanced view, it only allows to download 9.1.0…should we wait to update to 9.1.2 and ignore the possibility to do it via wordpress now, since we do not know what will be updated? please check that this versioning and tags problem is ok before indicating the upgrade…thanks for the fixes!

      Hi Daniel! We will announce when the stable tag is updated- we essentially. have to release to wp.org to complete the testing cycle – so while it is available, it is not yet stable. We should have an update for the completion of the testing cycle in a couple of hours, so hang tight!
