[Suggestion] Broader Locations

It would be good to have broader location options.
i.e.
Europe
Asia
Pacific
USA

thanks!

What I meant was have a location that you could select that represents Europe, without individual country and region information.

Ditto master regions for Asia, America, Pacific etc.

Hi Sebben,


That's not possible for the moment, with custom code you could do it. But unfortunately it's not on our list for the moment, maybe if several users request it, we could think of add it as a new feature or as a plugin.


Thanks

Would the easiest way to do this be to create my own location file and upload that?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Sebben,

Unfortunately, OSClass is not ready to work with "global regions" over the countries, I mean there's no way to store which country is in which region, there's no helper or functions to retrieve that new information, so it's not possible to "create a new location file" and upload it.

Some work have to be done in order to make it possible. As I said before, it could be done modifying OSClass directly or with plugins.


Thanks

Sebben
