WooCommerce 4.5.1 Fix Release

This release from November 9 fixes a bug that was introduced with the 4.5.0 release.

In 4.5.0, if you have “hide shipping costs until an address is entered” enabled in WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping > Shipping options, shipping was neither calculated nor added to the order for countries without a state required in the shipping address.

The issue was fixed additional tests were added to better prevent similar issues from occurring in the future.

WooCommerce highly recommends upgrading to this version, especially if you have “hide shipping costs until an address is entered” enabled in your settings.

Here is the additional changelog for this release:

• Fix – Check for state and postcode fields only if required in show_shipping.

You can download the latest release of WooCommerce here or visit Dashboard → Updates to update the plugin from your WordPress admin screen.

As usual, if you spot any other issues in the WooCommerce core, please log them in detail on GitHub. Found a security issue? Please submit a report via HackerOne.
