Japanese State Names in Order/Customer CSV Export
3 November 2016 Update: As of WooCommerce Customer/Order CSV Export version 4.1, this will no longer be needed as version 4.1 will be using a state name instead of the code for the five countries which use this type of format. Japanese addresses are a bit of a special case – apparently they roll a little bit differently. […]
