[SOLVED] How to disable other countries in dropdown?

Now, I am using 1.5.4.1 and I would like to know how can one disable list of other countries in drop down menu which is shown during a customer adding their details.

For example, I would like to have only Thailand. So, they don't have to scroll down for Thailand.

And, is it possible to change the name of country to local Thai language not just English?

Moreover, can I change the name of each province from English into Thai instead?


Thank you.

Yes, under the admin - > settings - > localisation - > countries (and same for the zones), you can edit each Countries and Zones by languages - also depending if your store is running on multiple languages. If not, then the English version would be the default one on the drop-down list once your customers purchases their products.

admin -> settings -> location -> countries -> click edit for the contry you are editing and set status to disabled
then this country won't show up in the drop down list.

This would take a long time to edit all countries. To shorten the process, just go to phpMyadmin and run an update query to set all countries to disabled.

update xx_country set status = 0 ;

where xx_ is the table prefix.

Then go to
admin -> settings -> location -> countries -> click edit for the country and want to enable and change status to enabled

OH! That's real easy.

Thank you so much bigal and straightlight for your help. You two are AWESOME!

Have a great day guys.
