Quick town and postcode selection at checkout

At checkout, the customer picks their town or postcode from a list of official post offices, so parcel addresses have no typos.

⏱ 3 minBeginnerUpdated 8 Oct 2026

A wrongly typed postcode or town is the most common reason a parcel comes back. So at checkout there is a search box above the address fields: the customer starts typing a town or postcode and picks the right post office from the list. The shop then fills in the City and Zip/Postal Code fields by itself.

What the customer sees

  1. In the shipping address, they choose the country. The search box works for Slovenia and Croatia; for other countries it is hidden and the customer types the address as usual.

  2. In the Quick city / postal selection field (the box says Search city or postal code...), they type part of the town name or postcode, for example Kran or 4000.

  3. They pick a result. The City and Zip/Postal Code fields fill in by themselves.

The same search box is also shown for the billing address if the customer enters a different one. The other checkout steps do not change.

The list of post offices

The list is built from official sources: all Slovenian and Croatian post offices with their postcode and name. We maintain it; if a customer reports that they cannot find their town (for example a new post office or a renamed one), write to us and we will add it.

This feature has no settings in the admin. We switch it on or off for you, and we also keep the list of post offices up to date.
Smaller places without their own post office are not on the list, because a parcel always goes through the post office that covers the address. The customer should choose the post office they normally use; the street and house number stay their own.

Common problems

The customer cannot find their town

Ask them to search by postcode or by the name of the post office that covers their address. If the post office really is new, write to us.

The search box is not shown at checkout

It only appears once Slovenia or Croatia is selected. If one of them is selected and it still does not appear, clear the cache, and write to us if it still does not show.
