WooCommerce 9.8.3 has been released
WooCommerce 9.8.3 addresses two targeted issues: one related to scheduled actions for product-related transients, and another affecting postcode field validation in the Checkout block.
What’s in this release
Improve efficiency of related product transient deletion
🛠️ Check for existing scheduled action before scheduled related product transient deletion #57592
This PR improves the efficiency and reliability of the wc_delete_product_transients() function by preventing duplicate scheduling of the wc_delete_related_product_transients_async action for the same product.
Fix: Prevent validation of hidden postcode fields in the Checkout block
🛠️ Don’t validate hidden postcodes in Checkout block #57594
Addresses an issue introduced in 9.8.2 where hiding the postcode field while marking it as “not required” caused the checkout process to silently fail. When affected, clicking “Place Order” would do nothing; no error messages were shown, and no logs were generated. This fix ensures that hidden, non-required postcode fields are excluded from validation, restoring expected checkout behavior.
