This Form is part of the Website GEO selection Popup, used to filter users from different countries to the correct Simply NUC website. The Popup & This Form mechanism is now fully controllable from within our own website, as a normal Gravity Form. Meaning we can control all of the intended outputs, directly from within this form and its settings. The field above uses a custom Merge Tag to pre-populate the field with a default value. This value is auto generated based on the current URL page PATH. (URL Path ONLY). But must be set to HIDDEN to pass GF validation.
This dropdown field is auto Pre-Populated with Woocommerce allowed shipping countries, based on the current Woocommerce settings. And then being auto Pre-Selected with the customers location automatically on the FrontEnd too, based on and using the Woocommerce MaxMind GEOLite2 FREE system.
