When pressed finish button got new error message What does the new message mean?")* Hi, There is no restriction on the checkout with the Starter edition. The post code custom field is automatically installed and you should find it in Display>Custom fields. Please double check. If you don't find it, please provide a screenshot of what you see there. Also, make sure that you enter your post code as a merchant and your Australia Post API key in the settings of the shipping method in System>Shipping methods or you won't be able to use it. If you don't have an API key, you'll have to check with Australia Post on how to get one if you want to use that plugin. Alternatively, you can disable that shipping method and instead create manual shipping methods and set shipping fees the way you want. The "no payment method found" error indicates that you need to configure a payment method in the menu System>Payment method. If you did and it's not appearing there, it's probably that you didn't configure it properly. I would need a screenshot of its settings to tell you what's wrong.

The path I have now taken after some searching is Extensions -> HikaShop - > Upper Horizontal menu Display tab -> Custom fields -> address_post_code Attached is the screenshot showing the address_post code and then it opened. No sure what to enter and where. (It is confusing that their are actually 2 (two) tabs called Display and both on horizontal menus.) I found an API key from Aust. post and entered it too. Hopefully in the right place. See attachment.
