    Default Looking for an APO/FPO Military Shipping add on

    Hi,

    My husband and I got stationed overseas and I have to deal with the APO/FPO for the first time.
    I would appreciate if anyone could help me out with this, I like to have a separate text button to select regular or APO/FPO shipping



    also how do I add the Military States to my existing selection (AP, AA, AE, AK, AL...)

    IS there an ADD? and help will be very appreciated, Thank you
    Betty J.

    That's already built in. Once you choose "United States" in the address book, there are entries for "Armed Forces XXX" as states in the drop-down menu. You'd type in APO, FPO or DPO as the city.

    Just be sure in the admin panel to choose the option to always offer the dropdown menu for the states.

    You might want to customize the entries a little bit. You might change the default "STATE/PROVINCE" field to something like "CITY or APO/FPO" the way it is in the graphic you provided.

    Could you expand on this a bit? What address book? Do you mean in the shipping estimator?

    Where in the admin is the option to offer the dropdown menu?

    In my shipping estimator, United States is selected by default because it's the only country we ship to, but there are no military states in the dropdown.

    Did anyone find an answer to this? I have several people who want to order with APO/FPO addresses.

    EDIT: Are the Armed Forces supposed to be under zones for USA (i.e. states)? I do not have this. Could I restore it somehow.

    On a second Zen site I work with, I found that the military zones were indeed part of the default Zen install. I don't know how to restore them, though.
