Steps to Disable WSA Extensions
Ensure you've tested ShipperHQ and are satisfied with the results. Attempt this process on a testing or development site first to confirm rates are correct before implementing it on a live site.
- Install the basic ShipperHQ module initially. Unzip your ShipperHQ extension zip file and navigate to
app/etc/modules/. - Set every ShipperHQ file in that directory to disabled except for
Shipperhq_Shipper.xml. - Follow the ShipperHQ installation instructions using the files you've unzipped.
- This will create all standard ShipperHQ attributes. Migrate your existing attributes into the new ones.
- Once migration is complete, disable the WebShopApps extensions listed above.
- Enable the modules you disabled in step 2 and proceed with the rest of the ShipperHQ installation instructions, such as enabling caching and recompilation.
💡 Please note: Some extensions require additional steps to disable. Refer to the disabling article for more details.
