Make the state required – Solution

  • If you want to make the state field required you should add a filter on your theme’s functions.php file:

    add_filter( 'woocommerce_billing_fields', 'my_filter_state_billing', 10, 1 );
add_filter( 'woocommerce_shipping_fields', 'my_filter_state_shipping', 10, 1 );

function my_filter_state_billing( $address_fields ) {
	$address_fields['billing_state']['required'] = true; //Or false...
	return $address_fields;
}
function my_filter_state_shipping( $address_fields ) {
	$address_fields['shipping_state']['required'] = true; //Or false
	return $address_fields;
}

  • Hello, I added the above code… but I don’t get an asterisk after the district to inform the customer that the field is required.

    Also, after trying to finalize the order, if district is not selected, it shows up as an error in the top messages as expected, but the field doesn’t get highlighted in red as the other missing required fields do.

    Ignore my first post.

    This is the correct solution to add to your functions.php file:

    add_filter('woocommerce_get_country_locale', 'woocommerce_get_country_locale_portugal_state_required');
function woocommerce_get_country_locale_portugal_state_required($countries) {
    $countries['PT']['state']['required']=true;
    return $countries;
}
