Exhibitor Manager DOCS & HELP

Countries & SVG Flags

Each exhibitor can have exactly one country. The flag appears in the detail view, the info sheet and optionally in the country filter. 250 flags ship with the plugin – nothing comes from third-party servers.

Exhibitors → Countries: name and country code on the left, the list with the “Flag / Code” column on the right.

Creating a country

  1. 1
    Enter a name freely

    e.g. “Germany”, “Austria” or “United States” – in your guests’ language.

  2. 2
    Country code (ISO)

    The two-letter ISO 3166-1 code, e.g. DE, AT, CH. Only this code decides which flag appears.

  3. 3
    Check

    In the list, the “Flag / Code” column shows whether everything is right. If the code is missing, it says “not set”.

No sub-levels

Countries are the only one of the five lists without sub-levels; so there is no “Parent” field here.

Countries via import

The CSV has the columns Country and Country_Code. One of them is enough: if the code is missing, the plugin derives it from the country name – and the name from the code. Missing countries are created. A code you set by hand is never overwritten.

In the front end

  • Detail view: badge with flag and country name.
  • “All Countries” filter: with a flag per entry; appears if “Country” is switched on under Settings → Functions & Defaults or with filter_country="true".
  • API: the country filter understands IDs, slugs and ISO codes (country=DE,AT).
For developers

The list of country names and codes can be adjusted with the eem_country_list filter.
