I have changed everything I can find to USA as the default country, but, whenever someone completes a new registration, then the state shows "Rhone" and the country "France". How do I get the state to be, at least, blank and the country to be United States of America?

In the menu Display-&gt;Custom fields, you can edit the default value of these fields.

Hi. I changed default country to Slovenia, but when I am tryng now to set default state there are still only states from France in dropdown. There are also only states from France in the dropdown of registration form eventhough the country is Slovenia. It must be a bug in new version because I never had that problem in previous one.

Hi there,
which version are you using? The last one is 2.2.0 and we didn't hear about such a bug yet.
Could you try to save you country custom field again then retry the state one?
Also, try to reinstall the last package available on our website.

Hi. I am using the last one (2.2.0) and yes, I tried to save country custom field numerous times and in state custom field there are still only France states availiable in the dropdown. If you wont be able to find a solution I suggest that you registrate on the site: [ www.smrekovit.com/smrekovit2013](http://www.smrekovit.com/smrekovit2013) and I will give you administrator permissions and you can look for yourself. I really have no idea what to do about that.

Hi,

That's indeed quite strange since it's working fine for us and all the other users in the latest version. I've reproduced the problem on your website and created an account so that we can look at your backend.

I've uploaded a patched version of HikaShop on your website and it fixed the problem.
The patch will be included in next version of HikaShop.

Hi,

Firstly, can you download the last Hikashop version through our website, install it, and try it again ? Also, could you try to save you country custom field again then retry the state one?

I'm also having this problem. I'm using version 2.2.2 and I disabled all zones except United States of America and the 50 contiguous states and in the registration form on the front end, no state box shows. So I enabled Rhone and now a state box shows up but only Rhone shows up to pick from. When I go to menu&gt;display&gt;custom fields and try to change the default state it only shows me Rhone and I can't put anything else in as a default. My country is set to default United States of America.

Please set the default value of the address_country field and SAVE it. Then, you will see the states of your country in the address_state field.

The address_country is set to default value United States of America but the address_state only shows Rhone and won't let me change it. Thanks Nicloas

You can just turn on the option "Add a 'Please select' value" of your custom fields via the menu Display&gt;Custom fields for that.
