Is there a way to import a large-ish number of options for dropdowns? ---

No, you’d have to write something like that yourself in Ruby or Javascript. How many are you adding? ---

Country might be better served by a new field type. I can actually imagine many people would want such a thing. ---

There’s already the “Location” field, but it’s free text and our folks take full advantage of that. 😛 Lots of value for a global community in getting some more structure there … we’re ready to hack what we can easily to get that when circumstances permit. 😄 ---

Reordering the user fields changes their position in user preferences, but it doesn’t seem to change their position on the user profile. The fields on the user profile remain in the order in which the fields were originally added: Settings: ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/9/7/975312b9c7fba7a61895449d6eb7a119031d7524.png) User preferences: ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/3/9/3926a1fef5be383954cfa5ac61241d47a691c831.png) Profile: ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/7/3/73e9ce4c1ca9211a43a3a5cf9e2191e656afe568.png) ---
