City value of States

[lat9]

@gunni, for the checkout_payment_address and checkout_shipping_address pages' update you'll need to start with a template-override version of /includes/modules/checkout_new_address.php and apply the same changes as you did with the template-override of /includes/modules/create_account.php.

That will provide the "city" recording for both pages and you'll need also to update your template-override version of tpl_checkout_payment_address_default.php and tpl_checkout_shipping_address_default.php like you did to tpl_modules_create_account.php.

Then, for the address_book_process page you'll edit the core-file /includes/modules/pages/address_book_process/header_php.php like you did for /includes/modules/create_account.php and update your template-override version of tpl_address_book_process_default.php to make the template change.

I think that should "do it"!

@lat9 Big thanks again but not all clear....

This is clear (after 6 times or reading...:).

and you'll need also to update your template-override version of tpl_checkout_payment_address_default.php and tpl_checkout_shipping_address_default.php like you did to tpl_modules_create_account.php.

I opened thoese two files and they do not have "city" nor "state" like I changed the tpl_modules_create_account.php file
so what do I need to change in these files ? Not clear.

Then, for the address_book_process page you'll edit the core-file /includes/modules/pages/address_book_process/header_php.php like you did for /includes/modules/create_account.php

Did it :)

and update your template-override version of tpl_address_book_process_default.php to make the template change.

What to update ? Opened this file and do not understand what to update...where ? Or should I put this file in my template dir ?

Thanks again...

My bad; those two files (tpl_checkout_payment_address_default.php and tpl_checkout_shipping_address_default.php) both include /tpl_modules_checkout_new_address.php; it's that common file that you might need to update to change the "State" to "City" ... although, I'm thinking now that those values are in your primary language file (hebrew.php?).

Dang it! That one, too. The form is displayed via tpl_modules_address_book_details.php

For both the tpl_modules_address_book_details.php and tpl_modules_checkout_new_address.php, you'll need to copy the files from the /includes/templates/template_default/templates directory to /includes/templates/responsive_sheffield_blue/templates ... unless the file is already in that directory.

In either case, you'll apply any edits like you previously made to tpl_modules_create_account.php.

Now all is clear ! Much appreciate your kind help lat9!
By the way....next time... would it be easier and more "clean" to make the city its own drop down menu with its database
instead of this state-city exchanges ?

gunni, it depends! As long as you've commented the heck out of what you're doing -- especially the changes to core and/or template files -- there shouldn't be an issue.

There would be a bunch more admin-tool work needed to create and manage that separate database table for the cities, IMO, given that the zones table can be "reused" for your stores' special case.

Thanks again lat9
