How to Rearrange Address fields..anyone?
October 30, 2008, 11:43:36 pm
Hi thanks for reading.  I have a manager that insists on the "Contact Edit" page that the State select should be between City and ZIP.  By default it appears below the Country select and she finds this disagreeable for some reason.   However, I cannot figure out how to make this change.

I have looked at changing the following .tpl files and do not see how to make this edit.  Maybe I have overlooked something, or maybe I should look somewhere else?

CRM/Contact/Form/Edit.tpl
CRM/Contact/Form/Address.tpl
CRM/Contact/Form/Location.tpl

See attached image.  How do I make this change?

Thank you.  Currently using 2.0.x w/ Drupal.

Is what I want to do here not possible?  5 days and no responses?  It seemed like an easy task until I couldn't find what I wanted in the .tpl files.  Any insight?

Thanks for any help!!!   ??? :)

Not sure this change is workable or a good idea, since the State field is filtered based on the country that the user selects. However, if you are only offering "United States" - you could try changing things and see if it works. You'll need to modify CRM/Contact/Form/Edit.php - starting around line 519.

Thank you for your response.  When I told the client about the situation, they elected to keep the form 'as-is' and this is primarily because they plan on adding other countries in the near future and in this case the state/province filtering comes in handy.

Much appreciated!   :)
