Help removing country field in shipping estimator

[treeman]

Hi guys,

 

My problem is not a very difficult one and usually I am able to solve these kinds of obstacles with my level of php programming, but in this case I am a little bit stuck.

 

I got the shipping estimator module for my store so that customers can estimate shipping from the product info. All is well except I really want to remove the country field

as we do not do international shipping and everywhere else on the site country fields have been removed. So I tracked down this field to these lines in the code:

 

ENTRY_COUNTRY .' '. tep_get_country_list('country_id', $selected_country,'style="width=200"').'<br />';

 

}

 

Ok all looks easy so I tried to simply remove it but then the postcodes dont update.

Ok I figure it must be something to do with the variable $selected_country right?

I tried setting it manually to the country_id but I must be doing something wrong. It never updates the postcodes if I remove the above line or modify it in a way so that the country selection field does not show. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanx

Where you get the shipping estimator module? Is it a contribution? Could you please provide a link which you used for me? Thanks.

You could try something like this

 

In catalog/create_account.php

change:

 

CODE

tep_get_country_list('country')

 

to

 

CODE

tep_get_country_list('country', '150')

 

change 150 (Netherlands) to 222 for UK or to 223 for US etc etc

 

You can do the same for (if people want to change address at checkout):

catalog/includes/modules/checkout_new_address.php

Hi, sorry i forgot to include the link.

The file that the calculator resides in is shopping_cart.php

 

For new account creation I have already taken out the country field and simply set $country = 13 which 13 = aus

 

Thanx for your replies
