[Solved] Change default country and remove fields?

[DavidD]

From the registration page, I would like to remove the newsletter/partner offers as well as change default country to the US. Is this possible? I have not found a way. Thanks much!

Remove the following section from authentication.tpl and identity.tpl in your theme's directory:

               <input type="checkbox" name="newsletter" id="newsletter" value="1" {if isset($smarty.post.newsletter) AND $smarty.post.newsletter == 1} checked="checked"{/if} />
{l s='Sign up for our newsletter'}



               <input type="checkbox"name="optin" id="optin" value="1" {if isset($smarty.post.optin) AND $smarty.post.optin == 1} checked="checked"{/if} />
{l s='Receive special offers from our partners'}

The default country should be what you have set in Shipping > Countries. Is your default country set to US?
