Hi All,

I see that in the user profiles section of the admin I can add some additional fields. I have the option to add a select box as one if these. I want to add one to allow a user to select a state, however, for example I want the state to appear as "Alaska" but the value stored in the DB to be "AK".

I wonder can this be done?

Thanks,
FWM.

You'd have to customize the template where that appears and use code for generating the states drop-down in place of that field, something like this:

PHP Code:

{include file="main/states.tpl" states=$states name="address_book[`$id`][state]" default=$address.state|default:$config.General.default_state default_country=$address.country|default:$config.General.default_country country_name="country" id="state`$id`"} 


The template might be main/register_additional_info.tpl
