I have made some changes to the ISIS Address Template too (address_template.php). But I can't figure out how to use the 3 Letter State Code instead of the State Name in the address template. For example I now have the shipping and billing address showing as: Sydney New South Wales 2000. But I would like it to be: Sydney NSW 2000 Is this possible? If so how would I go about this?

Kind regards Mark")* Hi, This will require some code to edit the display. For example in the view "address / show" you will have to replace: Code: echo $this->addressClass->displayAddress($this->fields,$this->address,'address'); By a code which will edit the address state name by its state code. Code: // Get the address html $address = $this->addressClass->displayAddress($this->fields,$this->address,'address'); // Then add code to process it in order to replace the state name by the state code It require php knowledges.
