About Restrictor de Envíos España
From the official readme · v1.0.3Description
Restrictor de Envíos España lets you block WooCommerce checkout for selected Spanish provinces or regions, or restrict orders to mainland Spain only — with one click and a message you control.
What it does
- Block checkout for the Canary Islands, Ceuta, Melilla, or any combination of Spanish provinces you choose.
- One-click shortcut to sell to mainland Spain only, automatically excluding the Canary Islands, Ceuta, Melilla and the Balearic Islands.
- Show your own custom message explaining why the order can’t be placed, instead of a generic WooCommerce error.
- Double-checked: the restriction is shown on the page and verified again when the order is placed, so it can’t be bypassed by editing the address after the notice appears.
- Compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS).
Use cases
- Sell only to mainland Spain, automatically excluding the Canary Islands, Ceuta, Melilla and the Balearic Islands.
- Block orders from the Canary Islands when your carrier or logistics don’t reach them.
- Block orders from Ceuta and Melilla for the same reason.
- Replace a confusing generic checkout error with a clear explanation your customers understand.
- Add a safety net against orders placed from outside your delivery zone, re-checked right before the order is confirmed.
Works with any carrier
Restrictor de Envíos España restricts orders based on the customer’s address during checkout, before any shipping method is chosen — so it works alongside whatever carrier or shipping plugin you already use, including Correos, SEUR, MRW, GLS, Correos Express or Nacex. There’s nothing to configure on the carrier side.
Installation
- Upload the plugin files to
/wp-content/plugins/restrictor-envios-espana, or install the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress directly. - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
- Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Restricción España to choose which provinces or regions to restrict and to write your own custom message.
Frequently asked questions
Does it work with the new block-based WooCommerce checkout?
Yes, but there’s a difference in when the message appears. In the classic checkout, it updates live as the customer edits their address. In the block-based checkout, the message is shown when the page loads with an address already saved on the account; if the customer types a new address without reloading the page, the message won’t update live. Either way, the plugin checks the address again when the order is placed, so a restricted order is always blocked, even if the on-page message didn’t update in time.
Is it compatible with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)?
Yes, it’s fully compatible with HPOS.
Can I write my own message for customers?
Yes. You choose exactly what customers see when their order is blocked, instead of a generic WooCommerce error.
What happens if a customer changes their address after the message appears?
The restriction is checked again when the order is placed, so it can’t be bypassed by editing the address after the on-page notice shows.
Can I also exclude specific postal codes, not just provinces?
The free version restricts by province or region. It doesn’t include postal-code-level exclusions.
Is there a version with more features?
Yes. Restrictor de Envíos España — Pro adds postal-code exclusions, additional countries besides Spain, and a log of blocked attempts. You can find it at https://patrolman82.gumroad.com/l/ijpffl
Will this slow down my checkout?
No. The check runs the same way WooCommerce already validates the order, with no extra requests or noticeable delay.
