Limit to one Post Code in 2.3.1

[Mc_Gregor]

Hi..

How can i limit the Post Code in "Create Account"??..

My store is an delivery shop but i want to limit the shipping to one zone.. For example my customers only can put "41000" other Post Code insert and have an error: "Sorry we only ship in the 41000 zone"

 

Apreciate any help...

 

Thanks!!!

Find this:

 

tep_draw_input_field('postcode')

 

Change to:

 

tep_draw_input_field('postcode', '41000', 'readonly="readonly"')

Hey burt!!..

Thanks!!.. But that would be a problem for me because anyone can put an address that not correspond to the Post Code "41000"..

I think it would be best to leave it blank and if the customer enters another Post Code, an error would occur..

 

Some If maybe?

 

 

Thanks again burt!!

tep_draw_input_field('postcode')

tep_draw_input_field('postcode', '41000', 'readonly="readonly"')

A piece of javascript that fires a warning message. Hunt google for a tutorial. Try searching for "jquery input text" or somesuch.

Problem Solved!..

The solution:

1-Running this piece of SQL code "in PHPMyAdmin".

INSERT INTO configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, date_added)

VALUES ('Enter the Postal Code to limit a Shipping Area', 'SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT', '0', 'The postal code to limit an area to ship. 0 = unlimited.', '7', '6', now());

 

That should add "Enter the Postal Code to limit a Shipping Area" in Administration/Configuration/ Shipping/Packaging.

For default is "0" you can put there the Postal Code you whant (Is for only one for now, if you want to improve more, share it).

 

2- Open up create_account.php and find these lines of code:

if (strlen($postcode) < ENTRY_POSTCODE_MIN_LENGTH) {

$error = true;

$messageStack->add('create_account', ENTRY_POST_CODE_ERROR);

}

 

Add just under add

 

if ((SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT > 0) && ($postcode != SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT)) {

$error = true;

$messageStack->add('create_account', ENTRY_POST_CODE_LIMIT_ERROR);

}

 

3- Add the Error Message to the language file /includes/languages/english.php (and other if you whant)

 

define('ENTRY_POST_CODE_LIMIT_ERROR', ' The shipping is limited to the area with Postal Code ' . SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT . ' For more information, see "Shipping Zone".'); // If you have one Shiping Zone

 

And that's all. I hope it's useful to others

 

Cheers!!...

One more, sorry i forget that..

You have to add to in:

 

1- address_book_process.php

if ((SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT > 0) && ($postcode != SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT)) {

$error = true;

$messageStack->add('addressbook', ENTRY_POST_CODE_LIMIT_ERROR);

}

 

2- checkout_payment_address.php

if ((SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT > 0) && ($postcode != SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT)) {

$error = true;

$messageStack->add('checkout_address', ENTRY_POST_CODE_LIMIT_ERROR);

}

 

3- checkout_shipping_address.php

if ((SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT > 0) && ($postcode != SHIPPING_POSTCODE_LIMIT)) {

$error = true;

$messageStack->add('checkout_address', ENTRY_POST_CODE_LIMIT_ERROR);

}

 

 

ENJOY!! :)
