What’s New?

We’ve streamlined how shipping profiles work with Printful integration to ensure a smoother setup and more reliable checkout experience. With this update, shipping profiles for Printful are automatically managed by the system, reducing manual effort and preventing configuration errors.

Key enhancements include:

Auto-Generated Profile:
A dedicated Printful shipping profile is automatically created to enable live rates at checkout.
Auto Setup for New Accounts:
Profile is pre-configured by default on new installations.
Auto Enable for Existing Users:
Product sync with Printful activates shipping automatically.
Profile Dependency:
Removing products from the profile disables shipping rates for them.

Deleted profiles aren’t recreated—reinstall the integration to restore.
