Hi,

I am surprised, in stead of the contry name, the country code shows up on my Custom Post.
It is a custom user field from WooCommerce.

see my screenshot with several screens on it.
I hope you understand the screens.

Actully there is no Toolset issue as the country select field is set to save value and select option values are saved as country code not as full country names.

I've added following shortcode to your current theme's functions.php file:


function func_show_billing_country( $atts ){
	$code = $atts['code'];
	$countries_obj = new WC_Countries();
	$countries_array = $countries_obj->get_countries();

	// Get the country name:
	return $countries_array[$code];

}
add_shortcode( 'show_billing_country', 'func_show_billing_country' );

And in your content template I've called above shortcode as given under:

[show_billing_country code="[types usermeta='billing_country' user_is_author='true'][/types]"]

I can see on page now full country name is displayed. Could you please confirm.
