Adding Countries to Dropdown Menus for Registration Without Changing Currency

Hello,

We are trying to add countries to the available list for registrations for our event. In the settings, we see we are able to add countries to the dropdown menu, but are warned that it will change the currency throughout the event. How can we simply add the ability for someone from another country to register for our event?

Hi,

The site that you linked to is running Event Espresso 4.

Do you need help with Event Espresso 4 or Event Espresso 3?

Alright, the country for your organization is set through the general settings page for Event Espresso 4. Countries that are available in the dropdown are enabled through the Countries tab within the General Settings page.

You can use a SQL query like this through PHPMyAdmin or Adminer to turn them all on:

If you do use the example above, be sure to backup your database and ensure that you have substituted in your actual database information.

Thanks Lorenzo,

Unfortunately, this is not an option for us. We are not admins. We are running your plugin, and don’t know how to run these scripts.

We need to know how to enable other countries within your tool. Please advise, thank you.

That is done through the Countries tab:

You’ll need to enable each country individually and save changes.
