Setting a default country in the Shipping Estimate side bar?

[Mizmo67]

Does anyone know how to set a default country in the Shipping Estimate side bar?

The catalog defaults to the first country on the alphabetical list, ie: Afghanistan.

I'd want to key in the "select" option to default the drop-down menu to United States.

I have been unable to locate where the drop-down menu list is in association with the Shipping Estimate functions.

I couldn't find a post discussing this edit. Has anyone tried this?

Thanks!

You must have already figured this out? It shows US for me. If you set your warehouse address to US, that is what the country should default to.

Bless you, Judy. You helped me see what was going on.

When I'm logged in under my user acct, it shows Afghanistan.

When logged out as an anon user, it shows United States.

It was making me nuts, lol.

Thanks!

Check your user page for your account in AC7. I believe the country defaults to what is set there if you are a registered user. It defaults to the store country if you are anonymous.

At least I think it does

Joe, you finished up the last clue for me.

My user acct didn't have the address defined and the country read Afghanistan.

I'm now firmly in the US, lol!

Thanks
