E-commerce - Billing address, Default country

Afternoon!

Going through the Checkout process of the Kentico E-commerce there is a section that requests country. How is it possible to set the default to somewhere other then USA?

Have changed the 'Default Country' within - Tools > E-commerce > Configuration > Store settings > General - to United Kingdom, but it made no difference here...

Thanks in advance!

Gavin

Member	gavin.bates - 12/10/2008 9:56:36 AM RE:E-commerce - Billing address, Default country Hi Florian Yeah did see the thread about that topic, Although I cannot find anywhere within the CMS or site files (yet!) that lists the countries in a similar way to a Bizform, for the E-commerce. Thanks!

Hi,

The change you have made in the store configuration is only for the tax - you select your country where you are selling your products, so appropriate tax can be calculated.

You have to do your need programmatically. The file, you have to change is "ShoppingCartOrderAddresses.ascx" located in "<your web project>/CMSEcommerce\ShoppingCart\". The code, which is affected should be around the line 68. Here is a sample code:

<cms:CountrySelector ID="CountrySelector1" runat="server" UseCodeNameForSelection="true" CountryName="Australia" />

or you can use the country ID from the CMS_Country table:

<cms:CountrySelector ID="CountrySelector1" runat="server" UseCodeNameForSelection="true" CountryID="284" />

Best Regards,
Juraj Ondrus
