Hi guys,
I’ve just updated to the latest version hoping it would fix this issue (the original thread is here: https://eventespresso.com/topic/address-not-showing-correctly/).
Still no cigar, look how it is displaying the addresses on our venues page:
http://ee.stagebe.co.uk/venues/
Any help much appreciated.

Hi Simon,
The ticket that is mentioned in your other support thread has not been fixed yet.
Have you tried setting up the readymade state/province pack for the UK?
https://eventespresso.com/wiki/install-new-state-province-packs/
Along with that, if you can let me know what you’d like to be changed for the venue output, I should be able to work up a PHP snippet that change the address output there.

Oh ok, so the address for example for Alton Towers currently shows:
“Alton, Staffo, UM, ST10 4DB”
Whereas we need it to not corrupt the country or crop the county so:
“Alton, Staffordshire, UK, ST10 4DB”
Happy for it to remove the country if that is easier.
Thanks.

Hi Simon,
It turns out that the espresso_venue_address() function is pluggable. So you can add something like this to your custom snippets plugin:
function espresso_venue_address( $type = 'multiline', $VNU_ID = 0, $echo = TRUE ) {
EE_Registry::instance()->load_helper( 'Venue_View' );
$venue = EEH_Venue_View::get_venue( $VNU_ID );
if ( $echo ) {
echo '' . $venue->city() . ', ' . $venue->state_name() . ' ' . $venue->zip() . ' ';
return '';
}
return EEH_Venue_View::venue_address( $type, $VNU_ID );
}
and it will display the address the way you want it to be formatted.

Ah ok great, getting somewhere now.
But….. Hit another sticking point. This works but where you set the county in the venue details, the list of counties is nowhere near big enough. I think there are about 10 counties showing and nowhere near the full list that is presented in the general settings > countries tab?
Where is this county list governed from so I can tidy it up?
Kind regards, and thanks for the above.

Hi Simon,
It’s actually on that General Settings > Countries tab, over on the right it will say “State Appears in Dropdown Select Lists”. You set all the ones you want to be selectable to “Yes”.

Hi Simon,
A little update on this: There are some new filters included in the latest release of Event Espresso 4.6 that allow for long form county/region names.
Here’s an example of how to use the new filters. You add the following to a custom function either in your theme’s functions.php file or into a custom snippets plugin:
// display full names for states and countries
add_filter( 'FHEE__EEI_Address__state__use_abbreviation', '__return_false' );
add_filter( 'FHEE__EEI_Address__country__use_abbreviation', '__return_false' );
The changelog for version 4.6.21.p can be found here:
