US States vs UK Counties

Hi Tuan,

I don't think this would take much to implement in core, and it would be MUCH more sensible for the UK rather than using the COUNTRY - can you please consider this?

Thanks,

Ruth

However, if all you want is a drop down of counties - no need to use the state field create your own Custom Field called Counties, with a type of drop down list. Copy the list of counties - e.g. from the first column of this table: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postal_counties_of...ited_Kingdom#England (Don't forget the other home countries) and paste it into the text box on the Custom Field form as a list of options. Job done?

Calum,

My apologies for the not replying, it escaped me till I saw the further reply from RCheesley and I felt I owed you a reply.

Thanks for the suggestion, this was was indeed what I did as you advised and it works fine.

I simply disabled the stock MembershipPro 'State' list field


Then created a new field as you said, called it County and then found an on-line resource with what seemed as near as damn it full list, a little time consuming inputting the list and entering the X | County Name convention but got there in the end. I additionally added [ENG] or [WAL] etc to differentiate when an end user is going through the drop down.


The final result in a registration of my site / membership is;


Many Regards,
