how are you determining that the user is from texas? based on their account information or their ip address?– schnippyCommented Feb 20, 2013 at 15:41

Hi schnippy thanks for your reply ,Actually the users can enter the credentials only at the time of checkout after adding the product to cart.They choose or select the country list in checkout page.– Dhinesh.ESCommented Feb 21, 2013 at 5:33

got it - so its not a question of when to display the coupon (which is how I would understand providing a coupon code) but more how do you validate it on the backend after they have entered it? is this right? you're not asking how to display it just for specific users?– schnippyCommented Feb 21, 2013 at 18:43

Hi Schnippy thanks for your queries on this question , the validation process take over only by ubercart modules in backend, we are not doing any custom function on that section for coupon, Am not asking how to display it for specific user. Am asking how to provide it for specific users which are all those from texas. If the users out of texas should not be get benefit using that coupon.– Dhinesh.ESCommented Feb 25, 2013 at 7:08

What you are looking for is a custom hook_uc_validate_coupon function. Ubercart coupon module allows for custom hooks here:
// Invoke validation hook.
foreach (module_implements('uc_coupon_validate') as $module) {
$callback = $module . '_uc_coupon_validate';
$result = $callback($coupon, $order, $account);
So in your site module you would need to define a new hook function that validates whether the order (or possibly the user object?) is using a billing address from Texas. Roughly, clone the existing validation function and add logic to check the order for your conditions.
function YOURMODULE_uc_coupon_validate($code, $order = NULL, $account = NULL) {
if ($order->billing_state != 'Texas') { // or however you want to handle this
$coupon = new stdClass();
$coupon->valid = FALSE;
$coupon->message = t('This coupon code is only valid in Texas.');
$coupon->title = t('Unknown');
return $coupon;
}
.. rest of validation function
}
