Post Code -- Changes to Postal Code...& Address


babel

Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello

 

I would like to make a change in the presentation of how the address reads

 

(i recognize a German address anywhere)

 

I would like it to read

 

Name

Address

Suite or Apt (instead of Suburb)

City

Postal Code (name change and moved to below city)

Country...

 

now could it be as simple as changing the order of the table rows -- (the html table)

 

or does the entire script need to be written to conform to the order that I have mentioned above...

 

I did see the contribution for the US -- however this not quite what I'm after the Zip Code (as they use only numbers and we have alpha numeric Postal Codes in Canada)

 

 

Thank you very much for any suggestions or input...

 

babel actually it's

 

barbel (with the dots over the a)

 

no one in english could roll the r -- so everyone called me babel :)

 

just another newbie to php

If you are shipping to CA only, you can use the suburb field for Apt/Suite w/o the need for an extra field. I actually changed mine to Address 1 and Address 2 which is standard practice here in the US.

 

Yes, you can simply switch the order of the HTML rows so that postal code displays below city.

 

 

Changing the text labels for all fields is as simple as looking in /catalog/includes/languages/english.php (or whatever languages you're using) and also the language file pertaining to whatever file you want to change. For example, /catalog/includes/languages/english/create_account.php
