Mechanic is a development and ecommerce automation platform for Shopify. :)
This task watches for incoming orders for the United Kingdom, and reformats any address postcodes that are not in the standard formats "XX XXX", "XXX XXX", and "XXXX XXX".
Runs Occurs whenever an order is created and Occurs when a user manually triggers the task. Configuration includes standardize billing postcodes, standardize shipping postcodes, and only scan open orders when running manually.
This task watches for incoming orders for the United Kingdom, and reformats any address postcodes that are not in the standard formats "XX XXX", "XXX XXX", and "XXXX XXX".
Run this task manually to scan all orders in your store's records. Mechanic will update address postcodes for United Kingdom orders, as described above. If you have a large number of orders in your store, this may take some time.
Mechanic is designed to benefit everybody: merchants, customers, developers, agencies, Shopifolks, everybody.
That’s why we make it easy to configure automation without code, why we make it easy to tweak the underlying code once tasks are installed, and why we publish it all here for everyone to learn from.
(By the way, have you seen our documentation? Have you joined the Slack community?)
