WooCoommerce Integration

If you have WooCommerce installed and have have enabled WooCommerce Integration on the Postcodes4U page in the Settings menu your customers can use post code lookups in the checkout billing and shipping addresses to ensure accurate entry details.

There are additional options that allow you to control where the Postcodes4u postcode lookup will be displayed so it can better match you Theme.

Contact Form 7 Integration

If you have Contact Form 7 installed and have enabled Contact Form 7 Integration on the Postcodes4U page in the Settings menu you can add postcode lookup to a Contact Form.

This is displayed in detail in the following document.
http://www.postcodes4u.co.uk/support/Pc4u_CF7_SetupNotes.pdf.

This is summarised below:

First add the Postcodes4u address to the form where the Postcode field and Address selction dropdown is to be displayed using the new ‚field type/short code‘ ‚pc4upostcode‘.

[pc4upostcode Postcode]

The form fields fields that will contain the address details for the address lookup need to be set up with ID values

For the Company Name the field ID is pc4uCf7Company

… for Address Line 1 the ID is pc4uCF7Address1

… for Address Line 2 the ID is pc4uCF7Address2

… for Address Line 3 the ID is pc4uCF7Address3

… for Town/City the ID is pc4uCF7City

… for County the ID is pc4uCF7County

Please Note You only need to include the fields you need for the form, eg for a short address form you could just include Address Line1, Address Line2, Town/City and Postcode

..You just need to ensure that the required address fields are also in the email template

If you want to make the Postcode field ‚required‘ simply place a ‚*‘ after the postcode field eg [pc4upostcode* Postcode]

GravityForms Integration

If you have Gravity Forms installed and have enabled Gravity Forms Integration on the Postcodes4U page in the Settings menu you can add a Address Field with postcode lookup to a Gravity Form.

The plugin has replaced ‚Address‚ advanced field with ‚Pc4u Address‚. All existing Address fields will work as before, but now have Postcodes4u Lookup options available, together with a UK address option.
The Postcodes4u lookup options are on the ‚Appearance‘ tab of the Address field in the form.
This includes controls to locally enable/disable the Postcode lookup on an individual address field, together with advanced positioning option,

This is displayed in detail in the following document, and it is recommended that you read these notes.
http://www.postcodes4u.co.uk/support/Pc4u_GravityForms_SetupNotes.pdf.

[pc4u_contact_form musthavetelephone=“YES“ musthaveaddress=“YES]
