Support for the block-based checkout is planned for a future release. Do not disable the “Country / Region” field from the Checkout Field Manager settings. WooCommerce relies on this field to determine shipping zones and calculate shipping costs correctly. Disabling it will also prevent the district name from being recorded and displayed in the order details. ### Credits * The District/Area dataset was originally adapted from an open-source Bangladesh Thana/Upazila dropdown project for WooCommerce. District spelling corrections and Bangla-language area names were added by Technoviable. * This plugin is distributed under the GNU General Public License v2 or later. ## Screenshots [⌊screenshot-1.png⌉⌊screenshot-1.png⌉[ screenshot-1.png [⌊screenshot-2.png⌉⌊screenshot-2.png⌉[ screenshot-2.png [⌊screenshot-3.png⌉⌊screenshot-3.png⌉[ screenshot-3.png [⌊screenshot-4.png⌉⌊screenshot-4.png⌉[ screenshot-4.png ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/technoviable-bangladesh-location- dropdown`, or install the plugin directly through the WordPress plugins screen. 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress. 3. Go to WooCommerce > City Dropdown. 4. Check “Enable the Bangladesh District -> Area/Thana dropdown” if you want the location dropdown feature. 5. Optionally reorder, hide, or rename checkout fields from the same screen. ## FAQ ### Does this work with the block-based checkout? Yes. If the plugin enabled, it will work with any builders, like – Gutenberg, Elementor, Elegant theme(Divi), etc. ### Can I use only the Checkout Field Manager without the location dropdown? Yes. The Bangladesh District/Area dropdown is optional and can be turned on or off from the settings screen independently of the field manager. ### Does this require any external API? No. All location data ships with the plugin as a local file — no external requests are made for the dropdown to work. ### Can I disable the “Country / Region” field? No, this field should always stay enabled. WooCommerce uses it to determine the correct shipping zone and calculate shipping costs. If it is disabled, shipping address detection breaks, and the district name will no longer appear correctly in the order details, emails, or admin order screen. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Technoviable Bangladesh Location Dropdown for WooCommerce” is open source software.
