Would like Country names on Checking not ISO 2 digit

[dharrison]

Hi all

I have set up the zone module to calculate shipping based on the country, so far so good.

However, the zone rate is labeled, for example:

Shipping to GB

Is there a way I can set it up so it uses the Country name rather than its ISO code? I have searched and tried a method, but it didn't work.

Any help gratefully received.

did you manage to get this working?

I'm assuming the $dest_country needs to be changed in the following line:

$shipping_method = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_WAY . ' ' . $dest_country . $show_box_weight;

Not sure what to though!

You would need to customize the Zone Rates zones shipping module in:
/includes/modules/shipping/zones.php

adding the code in RED:

// class methods
    function quote($method = '') {
      global $order, $shipping_weight, $shipping_num_boxes, $total_count;
      $dest_country = $order->delivery['country']['iso_code_2'];
// bof: get country's name
      global $db;
      $dest_country_name_raw = $db->Execute("SELECT countries_name FROM " . TABLE_COUNTRIES . " WHERE countries_iso_code_2 = '" . $dest_country . "'");
      $dest_country_name = $dest_country_name_raw->fields['countries_name'];
// eof: get country's name
      $dest_zone = 0;
      $error = false;

Then changing the lines to use the $dest_country_name:

// bof: use country's name
                $shipping_method = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_WAY . ' ' . $dest_country_name . $show_box_weight;
// eof: use country's name

// bof: use country's name
                $shipping_method = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_WAY . ' ' . $dest_country_name;
// eof: use country's name

// bof: use country's name
                $shipping_method = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_WAY . ' ' . $dest_country_name;
// eof: use country's name

Thank you.

All working fine. Not that I ever doubted it would't unless I messed up the cut and paste.

Hi,

I would like to display country name during checkout also. I am now using V1.5.0 but I can find the first and the last part of the scripts needed to be changed, but couldn't find the 2nd and 3rd one you highlighted in red.
Can show me where to insert?

The original line reads:

                $shipping_method = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_WAY . ' ' . $dest_country . $show_box_weight;

You need to change it to the new line with the variable in RED ...

// bof: use country's name
                $shipping_method = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_WAY . ' ' . $dest_country_name;
// eof: use country's name

If you still want the $show_box_weight, then use:

// bof: use country's name
                $shipping_method = MODULE_SHIPPING_ZONES_TEXT_WAY . ' ' . $dest_country_name . $show_box_weight;
// eof: use country's name
