Hide USA from the Dropdownlist

HI Guys,

I am working with the e-commerce shopping cart pages.

1. How can I remove USA from the country list on shipping address page?
2. When someone goes to the Payment gateway and back button , it comes back to the site and all the data of the customer is lost in the shopping cart but shipping price stays to whatever was selected.

Thanks
Gitesh Shah

RE:Hide USA from the Dropdownlist

Hi,

If you want to remove USA in the whole installation, you can remove it in Site manager -> Development -> Countries.

If you want to hide it only in that form control, you can add a Where condition to:

~\CMSFormControls\CountrySelector.ascx

for example like: WhereCondition="CountryDisplayName <> 'USA'"

Best regards,

RE:Hide USA from the Dropdownlist

Hi Helena,

I tried deleting USA from the countries list, but gives me the below error:

Error: The selected item cannot be deleted because it's used by other records. You need to remove it from the related records first.

I tried to solve the error but not sure where else the country USA is being used?

OR

On which line shall I add the where condition, an example would be great.

Thanks

Hi Gitesh,

1. You have to delete the States of a country like: Site manager -> Development -> Countries -> edit USA -> States -> delete all of them.

2. There is a control:

<cms:UniSelector ID="uniSelectorState" runat="server" DisplayNameFormat="{%StateDisplayName%}" ObjectType="cms.state" ResourcePrefix="stateselector" />

in the Country selector and it can have a property called WhereCondition.

Hi Gitesh,

can you check CMSDesk -> Tools -> E-commerce -> Configuration -> Tax classes? There should be no value for USA if you want to delete it. If you have already some customers in your system (CMSDesk -> Tools -> E-commerce -> Customers), please check if USA is in their addresses or on their General settings (CMSDesk -> Tools -> E-commerce -> Customers -> General).

Best regards,
