Multi Site Mode

The plugin now supports Multi Site Mode, which allows you to:

• Select specific collection addresses for each order in the admin panel

To enable Multi Site Mode:

1. Go to WooCommerce > PostNet Delivery in your WordPress admin
2. Check the “Enable Multi Site Mode” option
3. Configure your collection addresses with the required fields:
   • Street Address
   • Additional Address Info (optional)
   • Country Code
   • Suburb/City
   • Postal Code
   • Company/Business Name
   • Contact Number
   • Contact Person
4. Save your settings

Validation Features

The plugin includes several validation mechanisms to ensure proper setup:

• Order Completion Blocking: Orders cannot be marked as “Completed” without selecting a collection address
• Visual Indicators: Clear visual feedback shows whether collection addresses are properly configured
• Real-time Validation: JavaScript validation prevents status changes without proper address selection
• Error Messages: Helpful error messages guide users through the required setup process

When Multi Site Mode is enabled:
* Waybills will not be created automatically when orders are placed
* You must select a collection address for each order in the admin panel
