This plubin is based on <a href="https://tw.wordpress.org/plugins/wc-city-select/" rel="nofollow ugc">WC City Select</a>
WooCommerce uses a text input for the customers to enter the city or town. 
With this plugin you can provide a list of cities to be shown as a select dropdown.
This will be shown in checkout pages, edit addresses pages and shipping calculator if it’s configured that way.
After selected the city or town, auto set the postcode number if is defined.
<h3>How to add cities</h3>
A list of cities can be added in your theme functions.php file.
Use <code>ry_wc_city_select_cities</code> filter to load your cities. 
This is done similarly to <a href="https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/addmodify-states/" rel="nofollow ugc">Add/Modify States</a>. 
It should be added on your functions.php or a custom plugin.
<pre><code>add_filter( 'ry_wc_city_select_cities', 'my_cities' );
/**
 * Replace XX with the country code. Instead of YYY, ZZZ use actual state codes.
 * The City list can list of city name with postcode or just city name.
 */
function my_cities( $cities ) {
 $cities['XX'] = array(
 'YYY' => array( // city name with postcoe
 ['City', '100'],
 ['Another City', '101']
 ),
 'ZZZ' => array( // just city name
 'City 3',
 'City 4'
 )
 );
 return $cities;
}
</code></pre>

You can add it on a menu, or assign it as you front page. If you ever delete this page or any page that is created by the Improve My City plugin you can bring them back by disabling and enabling the plugin again.

<h4>[2] Issues & Categories</h4>
<ul>
<li>[2.1] Before creating your first Issue</li>
</ul>
Each issue that is submitted to the “Improve My City” platform is assigned a Status and a Category. Statuses denote the progress of an issue. You can have as many statuses as you want, although it is best to limit the number of statuses to 6. You can have as many Categories as you like.
Before using the plugin to report issues, there has to be at least one Status and one Category set, so the plugin can function as intended.
In the following sections, it is described how to manage the Statuses & Categories.
<ul>
<li>[2.2] Manage Statuses</li>
</ul>
To access the Status manager navigate to Improve My City menu > Issue Statuses.
On the left hand side of this screen you can add a new status by providing the necessary information:
<ol>
<li>Name: The Status name that will be shown everywhere in the application.</li>
<li>Slug: The unique identifier of the Status. It usually is the status name in lowercase without special characters and spaces.</li>
<li>Description: A short description about the status that is usually used internally to convey information between administrators.</li>
<li>Color: A unique color that best represents the status. Use the color picker to select from a predefined color or set your own.</li>
</ol>
Then click on the Add new Status button to save it.
You can also edit an existing Status.
On the right hand side of this screen resides the Status table that lists all of your created statuses. The chronological order that they are created, define the order of each step (as seen in the order field).
For example the first status that you create, is also an issue’s first (initial) status (the one with the smallest order number). The second one is the status after the initial, and so on.
There is a soon to be implemented ordering mechanism to enable setting the ordering manually.
<ul>
<li>[2.3] Manage Categories</li>
</ul>
To access the Category manager navigate to Improve My City menu > Issue Categories

<li>Description: A short description about the category that is usually used internally to convey information between administrators.</li>
<li>E-mail Notifications: The e-mail address that will receive all notifications about any changes. You can use more than one if you like, by separating them with a comma. By leaving it blank, it means that all the notifications for this category will be sent to the website’s admin mail (WordPress admin).</li>
<li>Category Image: Select an icon that will represent this category. Icons should have at least 100×100 pixels size and background transparency. 
Then click on the Add new Category button to save it.</li>
