How to store country name instead of country code on Address field was created by jimie

Hi @ggppdk you said on a previous topic that's how the store work.

the actual value of the every property is stored
and the actual value of the country propery is the countty code

Is there any way to store the country name instead?

you can use override option in last tab of address field
create a country field like a text and connect it in address field

That is what I have already, but still for example:

Instead of "France" in the field is saved instead "FR"

Hello

you should be able to use 'custom code' for field value creation inside the (text field) configuration

to do

Code:

foreach ...
$v[$i] = JText::_( 'PLG_ADDRINT' .  $v[$i] . '_COUNTRY')

i will review it and suggest actual code in my next message
