Just installed this plugin. I need to force a shipping name and address with every order, as I am dealing with a magazine subscription product in WC, and somehow need to allow customers to send the product to someone other than the billing name/address. I clicked the Force Shipping Address box – but how do I tie this to new form fields, which I assume I need to add to the checkout form? @wpress2010 Hi mate, The “Force shipping address” option only removes the “Ship to a different address” checkbox and always shows the shipping fields in the checkout. Whether fields are required or not depends on how you configure them in the plugin: WooCommerce → Checkout Manager → Billing / Shipping / Additional There you can add fields and set them as required depending on your needs. If this doesn’t fully match what you’re trying to achieve, could you please share a screenshot or a bit more detail of your desired flow? That will help us guide you more precisely. Best regards, QuadLayers Support Team Thanks for your reply. It turned out that the solution was via a specific Divi Woo Commerce module (Woo Checkout Shipping) that is designed to perform exactly this task: it contains a checkbox that when checked, reveals form fields for an alternative shipping address. @wpress2010 Hi mate, thanks for the update, Please open a support ticket here so we can assist you properly: https://urbiport.freshdesk.com/support/tickets/new Best regards, QuadLayers Support Team.
