Flat rate shipping charges a fixed amount per order or item within the shipping zone. Since the flat rate is set to $5, that is the cost applied.

Why does this shipping cost calculation always return zero?
This custom shipping method class returns zero cost even when the calculation should add $10. Identify the cause.
Wordpress
class WC_Custom_Shipping_Method extends WC_Shipping_Method { public function calculate_shipping($package = array()) { $rate = array( 'id' => $this->id, 'label' => $this->title, 'cost' => 10 ); $this->add_rate($rate); } }

💡 Hint
Think about whether the shipping method class is properly connected to WooCommerce.
✗ Incorrect
If the shipping method is not registered with WooCommerce, its calculate_shipping method will never run, so no cost is added.
