Is there is a way to enable both USA zip code formats (5-digit and 9-digit) in PS 1.5.3.1?

 

In the Localization > Countries section in the BO I tried removing the default NNNNN ("No verification if undefined") for the USA hoping that might allow either format, but in testing this in the FO I got an error message telling me "Zip/Postal code is invalid. Must be typed as follows:" (and it was just blank after the "as follows:" text). So that didn't work. It is forcing me to use 5 digits regardless. And of course, changing it to NNNNN-NNNN forces you to use all 9 digits.

 

I tried to follow along with this post here but they lost me at "overrides", plus the code might not be the same in 1.5 anyway, so I have no idea how to even try that workaround. But from what I can tell, allowing a wildcard (NNNNN*) at least would be ideal, and for UK postal codes as well.

 

I'm not a developer so I need would some guidance for what files to change, and also what code I would need. Can anyone help with this?

 

Thanks in advance!

In general, try to override the checkZipCode() function in the Country.php and/or the isZipCodeFormat() one in the Validate.php.

Just an idea. One have to seriously code and debug desired functionality. It is not a case for forum.

Bumping my post...

There must be some way to enable both USA zip code formats (5-digit and 9-digit), in PS 1.5.3 or otherwise. Can anyone help?

Sorry to bump this old thread, but is this somehow possible now in Prestashop 1.6?

Of course, improve some validation methods.

I'm also looking for answer to this as now that I have deactivated the zip code requirement so that both codes can be used - people aren't entering the zip codes!

There is not a way to do this currently, it has to be developed.
