cannot change countries listed
December 17, 2007, 11:54:27 pm
Hi there

I changed countries listed to first five.  Now I want to make all countries available.  I remove all the countries from the right hand side.  When I refresh the edits I still have the first five countries listed. How do I reset so I get all the countries?

Thanks

Jeremy

Jeremy,

You need to do the opposite: you need to *add* all the countries to the right hand box.

Thx,

Hi Michael

Thanks for your help

I have now put all the countries onto the right side. When I go to edit a person and drop down the country all I get is the first five countries.  There are none left on the left side.

Any ideas

Jeremy

Interesting to what you said earlier about leaving the right hand side empty, the line under says:

Which countries are available in the Country selection field when adding or editing contact addresses. To include ALL countries, leave the right-hand box empty.

Thanks

Jeremy

Hey,

Sorry, it's just me being stupid. :-) Either leaving the right hand panel empty or moving all the countries there should give the same effect, but that's not the issue here. :-)

The confusion probably comes from AJAX selector used to choose Country. After expanding the menu, it will show only first five options. However, when you start typing the country name in this field, and it will offer auto-completion allowing you to choose proper country name.

Sorry again for confusion - I probably replied to the original request before I had my morning coffee. :-)

Thx,
m

Thanks Michael

We all need that cup of coffee - especially as it is getting toward bed time here in Israel

Suffice to say that it worked and all is well.
