Country select instead of field

  • Resolved i1100a

    4 years, 7 months ago

    I modified the class.signaturelist.php file to change the markup for the countries and show a little flag next to it (using https://github.com/lipis/flag-icon-css)

    However, users have been inputting their countries in different languages and thus breaking my little function (I have a switch/case to get the country name and transform into the two-digit country code needed for the flag)

    I’d like to change the country field to be a select element rather than a text field and this way control the input and have it standardized.

    Since this change may affect other functions for the plugin and I don’t want to break it (we’re live now)

    Woud you be kind enough to show me where to do these modifications?

    Hah! I didn’t realise that the country list wasn’t loading properly.

    The list of countries is included, you can see them if you look at the source code. But using <datalist> is the wrong way to go about this as it allows people to add their own text in the country field rather than choosing from the list.

    Decision: Should the value passed be the country name e.g. Australia or the country code e.g. AU?

    @i1100a can you please contact me through https://SpeakOut.123host.net.au/contact to discuss including your code for displaying flags in the plugin.

    This is now implemented in 1.21.0 plus displaying country flags in the signature list.

    Thanks for the feedback, it helped me find a bug I didn’t realise was there.
