Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Shipping by Rules for WooCommerce version 2.0.6 as active, updated 8y ago and tested up to WordPress 4.9.
Overview
About this plugin
Determine shipping costs according to general conditions (bounds on the order properties). :
Total amount of the order
Total weight of the order
Number of articles or different products in the order
Volume or minimal and maximal extensions of the products
Postal code of the delivery address (the Advanced version also supports alphanumeric postal codes from the UK, Canana and Netherlands)
Coupon Code (Advanced version only)
). See the documentation for all the differences.
Each rule is described as one line of text with an easy structure (semicolons separate the parts of the rule). For example:
50
50€.
Limitations and common misconceptions
The plugin is not designed to calculte shipping costs on a per-product level (e.g. it is not possible that Article A has shipping costs of 3€, Article B 5€ and if you order both you pay 8€ shipping)
The plugin allows only limited support for category-based shipping. You can only find out if an article from a particular category is in the order, but NOT how many articles from a given category (e.g. it is not possible to have all articles from Category X ship for 3€ and all articles from Category Y ship for 5€)
The plugin does NOT sum the results of all rules, but uses the FIRST matching rule it finds.
The plugin does NOT use the lowest result of all rules, but it uses the FIRST matching rule it finds. (In particular, if you want to provide free shipping under certain conditions, you usually need to place the rule for free shipping FIRST rather than last, because the last rule will only be used if none of the other rules matches).
