I think I solved my problem. Still testing, but it looks like I got it to work.
Thanks.
Hi Derek,
Glad to hear you solved your problem 🙂
As you probably already found out, wildcards like ‘*’ are currently not supported within WooCommerce Advanced Free Shipping.
Please let me know if you have any further questions 🙂
Cheers,

derek.dobs, do you mind sharing how you solved the problem? Trying to figure out the same thing here.
Hey,
One option would be to create date range with two conditions. This works best if your zipcodes are only numbers.
Second option would be to use the Shipping Zones extension; http://docs.shopplugins.com/article/26-woocommerce-shipping-zones Which has a different matching method to match zipcodes that ‘starts with’.
Third option would be to use some custom code to change the matching method of the WAFS plugin itself if that is a option for you.
Hope that helps 🙂
Cheers,
Jeroen
Hi,
I also need to match first three characters of Canada postal codes.
For example user type L4M then whatever he types after these 3 characters should count in the rule.
Please guide me how can I achieve that.
Second option you told would be to use Shipping Zones extension, will that extension works with WAFS plugin and from where can I get that extension.
Please provide me extension I really really need that.
Regards,
Khurram
Hi Khurram,
The Shipping Zones extension would be able to match zipcodes like that.
It does require the WooCommerce Advanced Shipping plugin which can be found here; http://codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-advanced-shipping/8634573
After that you can request the plugin via the link at the bottom of the doc page; http://docs.shopplugins.com/article/26-woocommerce-shipping-zones
Other option would be to change the zipcode matching function to match it in a ‘starts with’ way including letters. I might be able to do that, but I won’t be able to do that sooner than in 2/3 weeks.
Thanks 🙂
Cheers,
Jeroen
