works fine
Despite the reviews I think it's a great plugin for free, does its job and had no errors or complaints so far.

It sets up shipping modes automatically without explicit permission
Installed it on a live webshop (I know, test env, but I have no high traffic yet and was a little bit sloppy) to have bulk label printing options. The plugin immadietly created every possible GLS shipping methods on the checkout screen however I realy don't want to support them all. The worst thing was that the shipping prices were zero by default. I immadietly uninstalled it, so I don't know if the bulk printing operation works or not, but a plugin should not do this automatically (and silently). (Also I had a GLS option already, it simply became duplicated, one for a fair price, the other one for free.) I really want to integrate bulk printing to my product page, but this is not a good practice for an e-commerce plugin.

Looks good but buggy
I tried to use this plugin but I got a server error.

Good plugin, but needs a few more things
It works perfectly fine, but it's very confusing that in the order list, the shipping address column doesn't show the address of the selected GLS box or GLS point. Unfortunately, this is very confusing for those who manage the webshop.

Great plugin but it has a bug..
On the orders page, when I select multiple orders and choose "Bulk generate GLS labels," then later select the same orders and choose "Bulk print GLS labels" (to print the labels generated in the first step), a duplicate tracking number is created for each order in the myGLS web application. However, if I select the orders and directly choose the "Bulk print GLS labels" action, tracking numbers are generated only once, and a PDF is available for printing. However, the tracking number is not visible on the order page in WooCommerce, and the order status appears as if no tracking number has been generated. The tracking number is only visible in the myGLS web application.
