When "Allow Other Countries" is unchecked, the Other field should not show up on the node. Currently it does.

Hmm. I hadn't thought of that. I sort of thought it could be used for delivery instructions, or anything and that the admin might rename the field using the translation module. So although I don't personally consider it a bug, I can see why you would. I believe someone else posted a feature request to have each field selectively hidden/required (two features, obviously).

So, ... I'm not sure at this point what I want to do with it. Thanks for the post.

Oh, wait a minute. I think you are confused. The 'other' field appears after the 'country' field, not so you can insert some other country, but so you can fill in some other information not accommodated by the regular fields above it. If you select the 'allow other countries' checkbox, you will see that the 'country' field changes to a textfield rather than a drop down IIRC. The 'other' field is shown in all cases.

Perhaps I should label the 'other' field as 'other info'?

In any case, it is by design.

Ah. Yes, I think some expanded labeling would be helpful, as well as the ability (perhaps) to hide the field.

Just curious: do you plan on trying to expose your CCK fields to the Views module? Most of them seem to show up as blank. I've seen you post about it previously (about the fact that they don't show up in Views), and was just curious if that was on your "to do" list.

The views issue is a known CCK issue, and not an issue with this module, unfortunately.
