Setting up for UK is more detailed than just doing this. While this will load the counties, there is more to proper UK configuration. EG: DATE FORMATTING ... ZC formats MM/DD/YYYY. In the UK we use DD/MM/YYYY. WEIGHT FORMAT: ZC uses LBS as the default. In the UK we use KG (important for shipping). SPELLING CONVENTIONS: USA uses odd spellings (as we all know) - "catalog" instead of "catalogue", "check" instead of "cheque", "color" instead of "colour"...
And there are other UK formatting issues as well... eg: Zones Definitions and UK VAT
Simply loading the counties does not address these other issues.
There is a UK TEMPLATE by Kev Polley, but it is not compatible with ZC1.5 (we have upgraded our copy of it, but I cannot make this available to others, because it is Kev's software).
This "UK Template" will create ALL the necessary UK configurations (date, spelling, counties, regions, UK VAT... )The LOT...
... BUT... it needs to be installed at the SAME TIME as a primary install, because it does INITIAL dbase configurations as well as file over-rides.
When used, it saves HUGE amounts of time, because doing all this manually (via admin and php edits) takes about 5 - 6 hours.
