>>> [!note] Migrated issue <!-- Drupal.org comment --> <!-- Migrated from issue #63904. --> Reported by: [rivena](https://www.drupal.org/user/12450) >>> <p>Hi, everyone. I have finally gotten a chance to put together a production drupal site, and I've been trying to help out in little ways I can.</p> <p>I don't really think this deserves its own how to page, but I went through the effort of making a nice list of countries and wanted to share it. I didn't want to post the list of countries inside the book page, so I am submitting an issue. I think this page is a little redundant, with other things in the profile module section.</p> <p>--------<br> HOWTO: Create a 'country' profile field<br> This page describes how to create a 'country' field in your users' profiles, similar to the one on Drupal.org, that lets you easily find users in any country. For Drupal 4.7.</p> <ol> <li>Enable the profile module. </li><li>Create a new profile field. </li><li>Go to the profile settings page (<i>administer &gt; settings &gt; profiles</i> ?q=admin/settings/profile) </li><li>Select the 'list selection' type of form field. <ul> <li>Category (required): It can be a category you already have or a new one. (Suggested: Personal Information) </li><li>Title (required): Anything is OK. (Suggested: Country) </li><li>Form name (required): Anything is ok, as long as it is unique. (Suggested: profile_country) </li><li>Explanation (optional): Usually, country is self explanatory, but you may want to write a note here to your users about this field. </li><li>Selection options: Copy the list from the attached file here. This file is from Wikipedia<br> (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries</a> May 2006) </li><li>Weight: Select whatever you like (this is the weight in the category selected above). </li><li>Visibility: Select one of the 'Public Field' options. </li><li>Page title (required): You must put something here. (Suggested: People who live in) </li><li>Check boxes: Check 'the user must enter a value' to make this field required. Check 'visible in user registration form' to make it part of user registration. </li></ul> </li><li>Click on 'Save field.' </li></ol> >>> [!note] Pre-migration files - [profile-country-list.txt](https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/profile-country-list.txt) >>>
