Hello @paulo232,

So make sure you have added the correct code.

Hope this helps.

Thank you.

This is the code we have added from the article we read, we just changed to UK so it defaults to United Kingdom but when we use site its still stuck on Afghanistan?

function wp_travel_customize_booking_form($fields) {

$fields[‘traveller_fields’][‘country’][‘default’] = ‘UK’;
$fields[‘billing_fields’][‘country’][‘default’] = ‘UK’;

return $fields;
}

add_filter( ‘wp_travel_checkout_fields’, ‘wp_travel_customize_booking_form’, 99 );

Hi,
I used the SNIPPETS PLUGIN and added the second block in the link mentioned by WEN Sulutions https://wptravel.io/change-default-country-in-the-booking-form/

function wp_travel_customize_booking_form($fields) {
   $fields['traveller_fields']['country']['default'] = 'NL';
   $fields['billing_fields']['country']['default'] = 'NL';
   return $fields;
}
add_filter( 'wp_travel_checkout_fields', 'wp_travel_customize_booking_form', 99 );

**Make sure you use the correct country code 🙂 ** I think country code for United Kingdom is GB

Hello @lorrainecreativeimagineering-cp-za,

Thank you very much for your help 🙂 .

Hello @paulo232,

Since there are two blocks of code, the lower one work in the latest version of the theme. So please verify properly. If the problem still persists kindly let us know.

Thank you.

$fields[‘traveller_fields’][‘country’][‘default’] = ‘UK’;
$fields[‘billing_fields’][‘country’][‘default’] = ‘UK’;

return $fields;

Hello @mashakhu,

While we have tested the given snippet of code with default themes like TwentyNinteen and compatible themes with WP Travel plugin which seems to work perfectly fine.

Compatible themes link:
https://wptravel.io/wordpress-travel-themes/

So we are not sure what’s causing the conflict with the provided code-tweak.

Unfortunately, there’s a difference between the support we can offer and the level of programming needed to change (core) features of our plugin. Since we don’t want to take the risk that we break your website by suggesting incorrect or incomplete code, we cannot advise you on how to make further changes. And even though we cannot be of any assistance, you’re completely free to change anything in the plugin to better suit your needs.

We highly recommend checking out available freelance WordPress developers or hire our customizers to look into the issue specific to your setup.

To hire a customizer refer to below-given link:
https://wptravel.io/hire-our-customizer/

We hope that you understand this concern.

Thank you.

It´s very pity to hear it.
Because I only use our theme and your plugin. And nobody knows it´s better then the developers.
All the customization being done in the web site was made by yours programmer
If you can´t advise me how can I change the default company, can you tell me how can I disable this field
Regards

Hello @mashaku,

Thank you, your concerns are valid.

There might be several other reasons why given snippet might not work:

1. Due to conflict with other 3rd-party plugins that exist in your setup. You should check this by disabling all other plugins.

2. Snippet generally to be paste in functions.php of your theme file so make sure you have properly added the provide code in your child theme’s fucntions.php file.

3. Check the error log for any error thrown.

Let us know if the above mention steps work or not?

Thank you.
