03 / Website use cases
Where to use product weight unit converter
Shops sell to people who think in kilograms and people who think in pounds, but WooCommerce shows the shipping weight only in the store unit, if at all. Product weight converter shows the weight from the Shipping tab converted with exact factors, can add a second unit in brackets, and can give shoppers kg, g, lb and oz buttons that work without JavaScript. Variable products show a range when their options weigh different amounts.
Heavy goods
Help shoppers judge postage and handling.
Food and drink
Show net weight in grams and ounces.

Troubleshoot product weight unit converter
Check these settings if the published page behaves differently from the editor.
Why is nothing shown?
The product has no weight on its Shipping tab, or it is virtual, grouped or external. The editor says which.
Why does it show a range?
The options of a variable product weigh different amounts.
Why is 0.88 lb not 0.8818?
Values are rounded to the decimal places you choose; trailing zeros are dropped.
Does the switch need JavaScript?
No. It uses radio buttons and CSS.
