 * Hi Thyran,
 * Thanks for sharing this information with us. It does appear to be a tricky situation
   and sadly we don’t have a perfect solution for you.
 * Within the options we provide in the plugin, there is no ability to force the
   customer to choose (and not edit) an address from the suggested drop-down list.
 * It maybe possible for you to make certain address lines ‘read only’, such that
   the selected address will populate these fields and then not be able to be edited,
   however I’m not suggesting this is a good option as it can cause more problems
   than it resolves.
 * Its good to see you have a delivery notes field so customer should be able to
   add “Care of…” or “Permission to leave with the neighbour” notes. This would 
   normally resolve these issues.
 * I actually have a few questions as I’m keen to hear more about the ‘_payment 
   processing can fail if the address line 1 doesn’t match the expected record’_
   but I’m note sure this is the best forum to be discussing this on.
 * I’m also wondering if the Shipping Calculator could be playing a part in the 
   validation error. Potentially there is a check of the delivery address and the
   shipping calculator supplied address (without Address Line 1).
 * Could you reach out to us at [support@addressfinder.com](https://wordpress.org/support/users/abletech/replies/support@addressfinder.com?output_format=md)
   to discuss further?

 * Hi Rose,
 * Thank you for getting in touch with us.
 * We are aware that not all of our customers are able to consume macrons and in
   order to support their needs we have a filter which, when included in API calls,
   will tell our system to return ASCII characters in place of those macron containing
   characters. (eg, Ō = O, ā = a etc). Note, the filter does not exclude macron 
   containing addresses from the results but translates the macron characters within
   these addresses into the ASCII format.
 * The filter is ascii=1 and it can be included on any of our APIs (address autocomplete,
   address metadata, address verification etc). For example: [https://api.addressfinder.io/api/nz/address/autocomplete/?key=xxxx&secret=yyyyy&q=184%20will&format=json&ascii=1&strict=2](https://api.addressfinder.io/api/nz/address/autocomplete/?key=xxxx&secret=yyyyy&q=184%20will&format=json&ascii=1&strict=2)
 * It can also be included in our widget code so that only ASCII characters are 
   returned there also. An example of the ASCII related changes can be seen in lines
   7 and 8 of the JS box in this code example – [https://codepen.io/addressfinder/pen/RzboxW](https://codepen.io/addressfinder/pen/RzboxW).
 * If you have any further trouble please do not hesitate to contact us.
 * Kind regards,

 * Hi Barry,
 * Thanks for your question.
 * Our plugin watches the country select field and activates when either AU or NZ
   are selected. When UK/US/CN etc are selected the plugin remains silent and therefore
   would not conflict with other plugins you might make use of.
 * I believe the tricky part would actually be in preventing your other plugin from
   working when AU or NZ are selected as these would conflict on the page. I am 
   not in a position to help with this but would hope the other plugin is easy to
   configure.
 * Thanks,
 * Matt

 * Hi clk87,
 * I don’t know if there is a conflict between the plugin and your ‘multisite’ website
   but the first thing I would check is if you have activated the plugin after installing
   it.
 * I realise this step is an obvious one but often it is the obvious ones which 
   are easiest to miss.
 * If activation is not the issue then unfortunately the plugin will not be the 
   solution for you. Another option could be to make use of the AddressFinder widget,
   configure this for your site and then add the code to your checkout.

 * Hi [@kds26](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kds26/)
 * Cool website by the way!
 * We have had a few customers who have enquired about using our plugin on the cart
   page. At this stage, we have been suggesting to our customers that they use our
   AddressFinder widget code (different from the WooCommerce plugin) and configure
   their cart page to include this.
 * We have some sample code that has been used by other customers to get this going.
   If you’d like us to share that with you – please send us an email at:

 * Hi [@kds26](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kds26/)
 * This is not a feature we have considered, but we are interested to know more 
   about it. Are you able to share a URL to your store, so we can investigate how
   you have the cart configured please?

 * Hi [@kds26](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kds26/)
 * My apologies – I am sorry to say that the AddressFinder plugin is only activated
   on the checkout page, not the cart page as I had suggested.
 * We may not be able to help you out sorry.
 * Kind Regards

 * Hello [@kds26](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kds26/),
 * Yes, the AddressFinder plugin works on the cart page. Your customer will start
   typing in their address, and our service will display matching addresses as they
   type.
 * When they select the correct address, the plugin with populate the various form
   fields (including postcode and suburb) with the address elements.
 * You can see a working example of this behaviour here:
    [https://addressfinder.com.au/features/address-autocomplete-field/](https://addressfinder.com.au/features/address-autocomplete-field/)
 * Does this answer your question?
 * Kind Regards,
 * Nigel
