Drop down menu for states

Right now in the shopping cart, a customer must select a country they're from in the dropdown menu. However, I only want to change this to states instead. So, people can only order from two countries: United States and Canada. For people who live in the US, they have a dropdown for the state.

How would I go about implementing this?

And delete all the countries you don't want by logging in to your admin panel > Locations/Taxes > Countries.

How sad. I deleted all the countries and then installed hte module, and all the countries appeared again!

IT seems that there has been no change in the looks whatsoever. I see no evidence of a dropdown menu for the states. I have set the default country to 221, which I am hoping in the United States.

catalog/includes/languages/english.php

 

Insert anywhere convenient:

 

// +Country-State Selector

define ('DEFAULT_COUNTRY', '221');

// -Country-State Selector

 

Did I do something wrong?

Okay,

So here's the problem:

When creating an account, the preselected country is the United States with a dropdown menu of the selected states, as indicated in english.php with the following line:

 

define ('DEFAULT_COUNTRY', '223');

 

However, if user wants to checkout directly without creating an account, no default country is selected and there is no menu for the states. I don't think the code to do this was included in the dropdown menu for states module. How would I go about doing that?

I use PWA with the drop down state contribution... it works fine for me. I also only have one country in the list, don't know if that changes anything...

Yea, that seems to work only if they create an account. If they want to buy an item without creating an account, a states dropdown menu is never there.
