Country list as single field

I need to use a country list but I dont need all the adress fields, hence it would be great if the country list also is available as a single drop down field.

Re: Country list as single field

You can choose to populate a dropdown field with a predefined list of options, but it appears we do not have countries in that predefined list. It should be in there and the next time we update those lists, we'll try get countries in.

I second this! I noticed it's not available yet.

When do you think we will be able to use it?

Thanks,
Remco

Re: Country list as single field

I 5th this. And it seems like it should be utterly trivial to add since you've already got the field embedded in the Address field set.

Re: Country list as single field

Unfortunately, it's not exactly trivial. The problem is that adding that many items as choices seems to make the form builder chug a bit. We're not happy with the performance right now of that part of the builder on so many items and so we've decided to hold off on including it along with the other predefined options.

You'll be happy to know, though, that the recent improvements we have in development testing right now are lightning fast and when we do update the servers, we should have the countries list also provided in there.

Re: Country list as single field

I also would like to see this feature.
Alternatively, I would like to make the country portion of the address field mandatory, while the address field as a whole is not.

Re: Country list as single field

Me too.

Awkward to show options for each state and each continent but not each Country.

Makes our company look like we are overly US-centric.

Re: Country list as single field

Our company provides services to the U.S. and Canada only at this time. After some trial and error, placing all the U.S. states and Canadian provinces in one dropdown, I ended up creating 2 product giveaway request forms for the same page. With the help of jquery tools and using hidden form fields to define the U.S. and Canada form, I created 2 faux radio buttons to select the country. This switches the form seamlessly making it appear as if it is one form, only the state and province dropdown change. Of course we are creating 2 databases to pull customer info from but not sure how else to approach it keeping usability in mind.

So my feature request, is a U.S./Canada address field preset. smile

Re: Country list as single field

I would like this as well.  I just need a simple way to collect the signed up user's country.  I see over 18 months ago, you said it should be there and you would put it in your next release.

Any ideas on when this will be? Or any suggestions on how to get around it.

Chris
