Hi all, i am trying to create an {if} statement based on the current registered customer's country in there profile, does anyone know what this variable name is.

I think this is the var $userinfo.b_country but it wont display, do I need to wrap something around it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How are you calling it? In an {if} statement? Post your whole code.

Thanks for the reply Balinor but I have tried this, I thought maybe there was something else that needed to wrap around that. I am trying to display this as an if statement in products_t.tpl which from what i can tell can not call these variables.

{if $userinfo.b_country == "Canada"}
display info
{else}
display different info
{/if}

Try {if $userinfo.b_country eq "Canada"}

No luck, even if I just try to display {$userinfo.b_country} it shows nothing.

I got this to work to show specific messages in the checkout for different countries.
This example is for Germany and based on the shipping address, not billing.

{if $userinfo.s_country eq "DE"}{$lng.lbl_shippingadvice}{else}{/if}

Thanks for the reply DaveB, I ended up getting a solution with the x-cart support.
