Hi everyone, I apologise if this has already been covered somewhere on the foums, but I have not been able to find the answer...
When I initially set up my store, I deleted all the countries and zones instead of just turning them off. Now we are expanding, and are going to start offering shipping to other countries.
My question is: Is there a quick/easy way to add a bunch of countries and zones? Either a bulk import of a list, or re-install all the standard ones that come with the AbanteCart install. I'd rather not have to sit there and manually add each country and zone individually if I can help it...
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, there is not easy way if you non-technical.
You will need to do SQL insert into your database.
You can locate original database with all countries in here:
https://github.com/abantecart/abantecart-src/blob/master/public_html/install/abantecart_database.sql
Look for:
INSERT INTO `ac_countries`
and
INSERT INTO `ac_country_descriptions`
Do not forget to clear Abantecart cache after direct inserts or updates into database.

Thanks, I'll give that a try
