      Can you confirm if “wild cards” can be used for postal codes in the shipping settings?

      For example:

      Single code
      Example postcode: V9R 5S5
      This will match only the post code V9R 5S5.

      Range code
      – you can use a – (hyphen) to set up a range of post codes
      Example postcode range: V9R-V9X
      This will match every post code in the range starting with V9R to and V9X
      or you can do this V9R*-V9X*
      or you can do this V9R*,V9S*,V9T*,V9V*,V9X*

      Wildcard codes
      – you can use a * (asterisk) to provide a wild card match
      Example wildcard postcode: V9* or V*
      This will match every post code starting with V9 or V

      Hi,

      Yeah possible. Use this code snippet for the purpose –

      add_filter( 'wcfmmp_shipping_postcode_check_rule', function( $is_allow, $destination_postcode, $postcode_array ) {
      	if( !empty( $postcode_array ) ) {
      		foreach( $postcode_array as $postcode ) {
      			if( substr( $destination_postcode, 0, strlen( $postcode ) ) === $postcode ) $is_allow = true;
      		}
      	}
      	return $is_allow;
      }, 50, 3 );

      Thank You

      Thanks for this information! I will pass this on to my team.

      Will you kindly add this to your core code as I’m sure many other marketplaces would find this very useful.
