Is it possible with a function to change the drop down to Unites States of America?

Hi,

You can follow the link below where I’ve provided a solution that is almost similar. However, you need to make a few modifications to the code. You can follow the same process and use the following modified code.

How to display "US" as the first choice but leave the default country field blank?

Hi Yumei, Avoid setting a default country, as it will be displayed first and may prevent the placeholder from being selected automatically. Therefore, I have set “Select” as the placeholder for the country so that it is initially selected. [Final result@2x] I have combined two functions into one based on the documentation below to remove the US from the list initially and then add it back to the top of the list. Please install the Code Snippets plugin or add the following code to your child…

add_filter( 'gform_countries', 'modify_countries_list' );

function modify_countries_list( $countries ) {
    $key = array_search( 'United States', $countries );

    if ( $key !== false ) {
        unset( $countries[ $key ] );
    }

    $countries[] = 'United States of America' ;

    sort($countries);
	
    return $countries;
}

Output:

Give it a try, and let me know how that goes!
