DPD Connect for WooCommerce
Hieronder vindt u de nieuwste versies van de DPD plugins met o.a. Brexit functionaliteiten. Let op: Verstuurt u na Brexit naar UK, dan doet u er verstandig aan u te registreren bij de HMRC in de UK. Wij raden altijd aan om de module eerst op een testomgeving te installeren.
Install
Upload it under Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin, then activate.
Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:
wp plugin install https://github.com/dpdconnect/woocommerce-shipping/releases/download/2.1.0/dpdconnect.zip
