    Search Page Select Menus...

    I would like to adjust the text inside the select menus for the location.

    Ex: Select Country
    Ex: Select State
    Ex: Select City

    Yes Pete that is correct, I want them to say Country in the upper select, then state in the middle select, and City in the lower select menu. I adjusted in the template but that was not the result.

    Then you need to rename those fields to what you want in your listing fields

    I checked in the listing fields, and there is a Country field, but on the website, the default for country is NOT Select Country as the listing field says, it just says -any-

    can you provide a bit more information on how to change that? Referring to the default option for each of the select menus on the search page (Country State and City select menus)

    I *could* change it in the language file, but the problem with that is that there is only one - Any - phrase, and if I change that to say Country, then all will say country, I need them to say what they actually are. Country, State, and City, so I will need to change code somewhere, I will check again in the field_search.tpl file.

    Update:: The best I was able to get so far is in the fields_search.tpl file (/template/blocks folder) was changing $lang.any to $lang.country, but the result shows country in all 3 select menus, how do I just change each one separately?

    Code:
    Only registered members can view the code.

    Brian I just checked your site and your state / city seem not to work at all you will need to get support to look at what has gone wrong as I can not see the problem by just looking at your site.

    Pete,

    Sorry for the late reply. I currently am having my apartment repainted and a lot of my computer stuff is packed up under drop cloths. I am using my phone to preview the website. From my phone it appears to work fine the drop-down menus on the search page.

    Can you confirm what is not working Pete?

    As in your picture nothing comes up, so get flynax to look at the error.

    Pete,

    I still don't understand what you mean by nothing comes up. Have a look at this picture:



    To better explain what I mean, you see how it says -Select Category- in the dropdown menus?

    I want the Country drop down menu to say: Select Country
    I want the State drop down menu to say: Select State
    I want the City drop down menu to say: Select City

    Is that possible?

    O OK, I see I think it just says "select a category" as you see it. Did you add "a category" to languages because mine just says "select" anyway it looks a universal option / one word?
