Technoviable Bangladesh Location Dropdown for WooCommerce

Technoviable Bangladesh Location Dropdown for WooCommerce makes WooCommerce checkout faster, friendlier, and more accurate for Bangladeshi customers — from picking their exact address to customizing the entire checkout form, all in a single plugin. Why Choose Technoviable Bangladesh Location Dropdown for WooCommerce

• Bangla + English, in one dropdown — Every location is shown in both languages, so customers who aren't comfortable with English can instantly recognize their own area in Bangla.
• Deep, detailed location data — All 64 districts of Bangladesh, with over a 1350+ areas and thanas mapped underneath.
• Fast, searchable dropdowns — Customers simply type to find their area instead of scrolling long lists.
• Built-in Checkout Field Manager — Reorder checkout fields with drag-and-drop, show or hide any field, mark fields as required, or rename labels, no separate plugin needed.
• Correct district names everywhere — Order details, invoices, and emails always display the real district name instead of an internal code.

Who It's For Any WooCommerce store operating in Bangladesh, especially stores serving customers outside major cities where English fluency at checkout can't be assumed. Important Note The District → Area dropdown currently works with the classic (shortcode-based) WooCommerce checkout. Support for the block-based checkout is planned for a future release. Do not disable the "Country / Region" field from the Checkout Field Manager settings. WooCommerce relies on this field to determine shipping zones and calculate shipping costs correctly. Disabling it will also prevent the district name from being recorded and displayed in the order details.

1.2.0

• Renamed the plugin to "Technoviable Bangladesh Location Dropdown for WooCommerce" and changed the plugin slug to technoviable-bangladesh-location-dropdown.
• The checkout District/Area dropdown JavaScript is now loaded from a properly enqueued asset file instead of being printed inline inside the checkout markup.
• Location data is passed through wp_json_encode() with JSON_HEX_TAG, and the inline payload is about 38% smaller because Bangla names are no longer escaped to \uXXXX sequences.
• Fixed a case where WordPress could silently skip the checkout script when WooCommerce's enhanced-select asset had not been registered.
• Declared WooCommerce as a required plugin via the "Requires Plugins" header.
• Hardened the settings save handler: input is now unslashed with wp_unslash() before sanitization, and malformed submissions are ignored instead of triggering PHP warnings.
