I've looked but found any comments on this, but can't imagine I'm the only one concerned either.

Install DNN 4.3.3, and then pursuade a friend to Register on your new site. I notice several things:

Problem 1) Region is asked for before Country. For us U.S. of A. folks, one has to guess that Region refers to State, and so you enter in WA, or whatever. Then one goes to Country, enter United States, and poof there's a round trip to the server which then obliterates what the user specified for Region and forces them to notice this, and then go back and correct it. This isn't overly bad but this is most people's very first experience using DNN and every registrant has to go through this.

Solution A) Fix the DNN bug that doesn't auto set the country code:

and also

Solution B & Problem 2) If I go into Admin menu | User Roles | Manage Profile Properties (on the module context menu), I can set a default Region and Country. These don't work though! Arrgg. Is it because I'm using "WA" and "United States" for the defaults and it really wants some wierd code used internally to represent these locations, or what? I've also been unable to set a default for the postal code or phone number. (Technically I can set them, but new users don't have those defaults enetered for them.)

Solution C) Hardcode the country, if you are operating a local website. I haven't figured this out yet.

Solution D) Have DNN go back to specifying Country before Region, so user isn't faced with confusiono and also with having to enter stuff twice. (I think this changed with 4.3, or at least recently.)

minor Problem 3) Admin menu | User Roles and Admin Menu | Security Roles both have links to the the same module, "User Settings" which seems slightly strange, but certainly tolerable.

Problem 4) From Admin menu | User Roles | Manage Profile Properties (on the module context menu), if I set First and Last name as required, then they showed up for me on the user registratino form TWICE. I understand entering one's password twice, dislike entering one's email twice, but think having to enter one's first & last name twice is just wrong.

Are other people seeing these issues, or is it the local pattern of cosmic rays that just affects me? Thanks.
