How to Disable Shipping For Your VirtueMart Shop

Written on April 1, 2013. Posted in VirtueMart.

If you’re not selling a physical product, then you probably won’t need Shipping to be part of your shop.

To get around this:

Go to Components -> VirtueMart

Go to the Shop menu on the left hand side -> Shipment Methods

Add New

Create a shipment method where the Name is No Shipment Required

Then:

Click the Configuration menu on the left hand side -> Configuration

In the Checkout tab, tick the Enable Automatic Selected Shipment? box
