How to Manage Countries and States/Provinces

With the use of PHPFox, you have the ability to manage the list of countries users can choose from on your website. The good thing here is that depending on the country, you can actually specify the states/provinces for each one of them.

To get to the management panel, you need to first access your website as administrator and then click on the AdminCP button at the top-right corner.

Step 1 Add a country

To add a new country to the pre-defined list, you need to click on the Tools button at the top menu and then Countries > Add Country.

Edit the following options:

• ISO - Enter the short abbreviation for the new country
• Name- Enter the name of the country you wish to add

Click on the Submit button to add the new country.

Step 2 Edit a country

To edit the already existing countries in PHPFox, you need to click on the Tools button at the top menu and then Countries > Country Manager.

Click on the arrow drop-down box next to the country that you wish to edit and then Edit.

Step 4 Add a state/province to a country
