Zip+4 Validation Error

Fernando, thank you. I believe you addressed it immediately.

We have a fairly complex shipping zone set-up since we offer tiered pricing for local delivery based upon zip code. In our immediate area we have 4 different delivery zones that are identified by zip (e.g. 90008) As a workaround to include the rest of California, we created an “out of local delivery zone” zone with all additional California zip codes (all 5 digits). All other zones above that are by State, which presumably DOES include +4 validation. I just tested this with a zip+4 in New York state (no error) and Zip+4 in a different part of California (error).

Thank you. I’ll have to rethink how we have local delivery set up, but for now will remove it so that other orders are not messed up. Thank you again.

@jhokanson unfortunately, not in the way I wanted. We started getting multiple errors with other customers who *did* include a zip+4 for shipping, even if they weren’t delivery. I cannot remember the exact steps we took, but essentially we just eliminated the scenario we had set up above (that is, the local delivery code, charged based upon zip) and ended up installing an address validation plugin. Long story short: zip+4 won’t work if you have specific zip codes line itemed for shipping.

Another way of saying it: if we had 91362 as a specific zip in California, we added all of the other zips in California to a separate zone called “California” (which is tedious af btw), but then if anybody anywhere in California put in their zip+4, it would only show our fallback shipping method, which was much more expensive to account for international shipping.

tl;dr zip+4 doesn’t work in Woo if you have individual zip codes configured, it only works with a full zone like, “California”. Sorry I couldn’t give you a more productive answer!
