Unable to change countries and Countries tab is empty

We are in the US but the drop-down only lists Canada and it’s provinces. When I go to General Settings->Countries, it is a blank page.

Hi,

Usually a blank page is the result of a PHP fatal error. Can you activate WP_DEBUG mode to capture the error message? There’s information about how to activate WP_DEBUG mode and how to check for the error here:

Hi there,

Is this a clean install of EE or did you migrate over from EE3?

What is set for the country in Event Espresso -> General Settings -> Your Organization -> Country?

It’s a clean install of EE.

The country is blank but my only choice is Canada in the drop-down

Can you select Canada for now, then click Save, then go to the Countries tab and select the United States? Once that’s selected, you can set “Country appears in Dropdown Lists” to Yes, then Save.

That allowed me to see US under the Countries…I selected US but when I go back to the Your Organization country drop-down…Canada is still my only option.

After you select US on the Countries tab, you’ll need to also set “Country appears in Dropdown Lists” to Yes, then Save. Somehow that got set to No, so it needs to be set to Yes.

Ok…thank you…I think I’ve jumped through all the appropriate hoops and it is set properly. Thanks for your help

Hi,

Normally the hoops wouldn’t be there to jump through. It seems somehow on your site the US option got unset. A new install of EE should have that option already set for you.
