@sterndata hashes do not provide authenticity checks. They’re for integrity checking (eg corrupt downloads), not security.

I’m asking about signatures, for security. See the ticket linked-to in OP:

Themes become “very popular” precisely because of all the bells and whistles they offer — and ALL these fancy features require JavaScript to work.

That’s valid. I’d expect popular themes to have fancy features that require JavaScript. But what I’m asking for isn’t a fancy feature. It’s neither a bell nor a whistle.

A navigation menu is very basic feature. I would expect users to be able to access a website’s hamburger menu without JavaScript.

Do we know if this restriction (implementation of the hamburger menu in JavaScript with no noscript fallback) is a limitation of wordpress core or the theme itself?

Actually, it looks like some get_country_locale() function declares if the state is required or not, and it also defines the human-readable label that appears to the user at checkout (eg County, Province, State, Canton, District, Department, Parish, Region, Prefecture, Municipality, State / Zone, or Municipality / District).

• https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/blob/7.7.0/plugins/woocommerce/includes/class-wc-countries.php#LL795C5-L795C5

In addition to required, some countries’s state is defined as hidden. For example, the country of Estonia (EE) is hidden and not required

'EE' => array(
  'postcode' => array(
    'priority' => 65,
  ),
  'state' => array(
    'required' => false,
    'hidden'   => true,
  ),
),

EDIT: My theory about this was wrong. I did a quick check of all the countries whose state is set to 'hidden' => true, and I got this list

AF, AT, AX, BA, BE, BH, BI, CZ, DE, DK, EE, FI, FR, GP, GF, IS, IL, IM, KR, KW, LB, MF, MQ, MT, NL, NO, PL, PR, PT, RE, SG, SK, SI, LK, LU, SE, VN, YT

While some of these countries (eg Estonia = EE) don’t show the State input field at checkout, at least one on this list (eg Germany = DE) *does* show the State input dropdown when selecting it at checkout.

…so I’m still not sure exactly how to figure out which countries do and which countries do not prompt the user for a State/Province at checkout ??

I still haven’t found the relevant code, but it appears that there’s three cases (but I could be wrong)

1. The user is presented with a drop-down to choose the State/Province
2. The field is removed and the user cannot enter a State/Province
3. The filed is a free-form County?(optional) input box, and the user can type what they want

My theory is that #1 happens when the array in the above-linked file contains some values (eg US), #2 when the array in the above-linked file is empty (eg EE), and #3 when the country doesn’t appear in the above-linked file at all (eg GB).

As far as I can tell, any country that’s assigned an empty array in this file does not require a billing_state or shipping_state

More logic can be found here (see get_states() function)

@r3098 can you maybe describe how we can query the DB to determine if Aurora has actually received data or not?

And how we can manually trigger the relevant cron to run to force generation of the heatmaps?

And which logs to tail to check for errors when we do the above step?
