Shipping zones

Hi there,

I’d suggest you to add all the valid postcodes in your “inside dhaka” zone (making sure that they don’t overlap with the ones in “Suburb shaka”.

Please note that in order to make it easier, you can also use a range of postcodes (e.g. 90210…99000), or use wildcards (e.g. CB23*).

Here you can find more details about this: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/setting-up-shipping-zones/#section-3

Thanks

ok. and what about the postal code requirement

Hi there,

In order to make the post-code field a required field, you could use an extension like https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-checkout-field-editor OR do the inverse of the custom code highlighted here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47859120/make-checkout-shipping-postcode-field-not-required-in-woocommerce

Essentially, you’ll be setting $address_fields['postcode']['required'] to true.

i added a snippet

add_filter( 'woocommerce_default_address_fields', 'customise_postcode_fields' );
function customise_postcode_fields( $address_fields ) {
    $address_fields['postcode']['required'] = true;

    return $address_fields;
}

didn’t worked

Hi there,

Please note that by default, the postcode field is required in WooCommerce, so I guess that some plugin or your theme is customizing your Checkout page to make this field non-required.

I’d suggest you go to Appearance>Themes and try to ‘preview’ your Checkout page using a default theme (like Storefront) to see if the field becomes required again. If that’s the case, it will mean that your current theme is disabling this requirement.

If the issue persists,the best way to find the origin of the issue is to disable all the active plugins except WooCommerce to see if the issue is fixed. If that’s the case, you just need to reactivate the disabled plugins one by one and reload the Checkout page to check if the issue reappears. You’ll know the culprit plugin when you reactivate one and the problem reappears.

Of course, I’d suggest you to perform this test on a staging version of your site (you can use “WP Staging” plugin to create one quickly).

Hi again,

Just to let you know, I’ve tried the code that you shared in your previous reply, setting the required attribute to false and I confirm that it works, as the postcode field became non-required on my site.

Maybe the problem is that your theme or a plugin in your site is using this filter to make this field non-required and it has a higher priority, overriding the code that you’re trying to add now.

You can try to increase its priority with the following code:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_default_address_fields', 'customise_postcode_fields', 100 );
function customise_postcode_fields( $address_fields ) {
    $address_fields['postcode']['required'] = true;

    return $address_fields;
}

ok, so i…
1. activated storefront theme. no changes
2. deactivated all the plugin except original woocommerce. no changes
3. added this code in storefronts function.php

add_filter( 'woocommerce_default_address_fields', 'customise_postcode_fields', 100 );
function customise_postcode_fields( $address_fields ) {
    $address_fields['postcode']['required'] = true;

    return $address_fields;
}

no changes even if i put 99999999 instead of 100.
4. activated ‘code snippets’ plugin and added the same code with priority 32767. still no changes

Hi @muza11,

Thank you for this updated information – it should work; as it is working in our test sites. If it is not too much trouble, can you post your Status Report with just Storefront enabled with the other plugins save WooCommerce disabled? That way we can try to mirror it and see what is going on.

I look forward to hearing back from you!

with the other plugins save WooCommerce disabled

i am not clear with this words.
you mean all the plugin associated with woocommerce should be enabled? or only the main woocommerce will be enable and all other plugin deativated?

Hi @muza11,

I believe @nixiack8 meant the latter: disable all other plugins except WooCommerce and switch to the Storefront theme then share your System Status Report from WooCommerce > Status.

I hope this makes it clearer.
