Move Country to Top

[screams]

There used to be an article in the Knowledge base describing how to move a particular country (e.g. the U.S.) to the top of the countries pull-down list.

 

I bookmarked it but the bookmark now points to a sort of "best of KB" page and I cannot find the article.

It's now under Tips & Tricks.

Be careful though. The KB refers to MS3, not MS2. For this countries question it's ok, but in general, you may want to use the MS2 PDF instead.

 

The MS2 PDF can now be found at http://www.oscommerce.com/solutions/downloads

 

The article you're looking for is on page 122 of the PDF.

I couldn't find it there either. But here's what you can do.

 

223 is the code for the US

 

 

MODIFY catalog/create_account.php

 

FIND:

php echo tep_get_country_list('country')

 

REPLACE with:

 

php echo tep_get_country_list('country', '223')

 

 

MODIFY catalog/includes/modules/address_book_details.php

 

FIND:

 

<?php echo tep_get_country_list('country', $entry['entry_country_id']) . ' ' . (tep_not_null(ENTRY_COUNTRY_TEXT) ? '<span class="inputRequirement">' . ENTRY_COUNTRY_TEXT . '</span>': ''); ?>

 

REPLACE with:

 

<?php echo tep_get_country_list('country', '223', $entry['entry_country_id']) . ' ' . (tep_not_null(ENTRY_COUNTRY_TEXT) ? '<span class="inputRequirement">' . ENTRY_COUNTRY_TEXT . '</span>': ''); ?>

 

Enjoy!

Lauren,

 

The pdf for ms2.2 is here:

http://oscommerce.sunsite.dk/downloads/osc...s2-20050805.pdf

 

Click on "Tips" on the left side and it is in alphabetical order saying "Tips: Move Country to top of dropbox."

 

This has been corrected in ms2.3 already and working so this info for now will only be in the ms2.2 pdf download.

 

Thanks!
