Disable native address lookup

Shopify provides a native address lookup, and to get the most out of the Autoaddress app, follow below steps to disable this:

  • Go to the Settings page for your Shopify store
  • Select the Checkout option from the left-hand menu
  • On the Customize your checkout section, click the Customize button then the Settings icon on the left of the menu
  • Scroll to the bottom and under the Address autocompletion heading, untick the option for Use address autocompletion, then click the Save button


Enable additional data

The Autoaddress app features additional settings which can simply be toggled on or off. 

On your admin page, find Autoaddress under the Apps section then click Configure extension to see the additional settings.

The available additional settings are:

  • PO Box - Allows PO Boxes to show as addresses
  • Organization/Business names - Allows organization names to appear as suggestions
  • Transliteration - Swaps non-latin characters with latin characters
  • Fold to ASCII - Replaces characters that are not in the Basic Latin Unicode block (first 127 ASCII characters)
  • Location data - Returns co-ordinates for address


Add Order Metafield Definitions

Shopify provides the ability to customize data for a specific part of your store. Autoaddress can provide location data for your order object.  

Once you turn on the Setting to retrieve location data, there are additional steps to ensure you get data returned.

To do this, navigate to Settings → Custom Data → Orders. Here you will see a button labeled "View unstructured metafields", click this.

Note: The button will only be visible if any new orders are made after turning on the setting.

If there are no new orders made after enabling the setting, click "Add definition" and ensure Namespace and key is labelled custom.location_coordinates

From here, click "Add definition". Input any name and definition for this metafield, this can be used for any programmatic access of orders that your store requires.

Ensure you also choose the metafield type as "Single line text" and press Save.

The location data field will now be visible on all orders.
