I was having an issue where I wanted to use the full address as a single field in my view, but I couldn't get rid of the country name.

The issue is that currently the field options allow you to exclude the country, but that doesn't also exclude the country name. I have been able to hack a fix, by changing the following line in location_handler_field_location_address.inc:

      '#options' => location_field_names(),

to:

      '#options' => location_field_names(TRUE),

It does also have the side effect of giving you options to exclude options that won't appear even if unchecked, however (such as map links). Truth be told, however, I'd actually like to have those available in my views

If my change would be of use to anyone else, I'd be happy to roll a patch.

Summit, I think you mean roll (or maybe create) a patch. unroll, would be ... hmm I dont know. Some times people will say re-roll to do a patch again, like if a patch is against 1.3 and 1.5 is available, someone might request the patch get re-rolled against 1.5. :)

But I think we knew what you meant! :)

Anyway, surge_martin, could you also explain a little bit more about your problem and the side effects? Maybe some before and after screen shots would help a lot.

just to add, this was a problem in the 6.3 code (and perhaps before as well)
but it is now working correctly in 6.3.1
thanks
