SalesForce - country auto complete? - salesforce

When my users create accounts in SalesForce, they usually mis-type the name of the country.
Is there some way to autocomplete them with the account standard layout?

Not auto-complete, but dropdown is available natively.Implementing Country Picklist

Custom object select field in Salesforce web-to-lead form

I have a custom object in salesforce called Classes and I am using the Leads object for storing student information. I have a web-to-lead form for capturing student registrations, but I would like to have the students select which class they are registering for, from a dropdown select field.
Is that possible using the web-to-lead form, or do I have to create a custom one with SQL queries?
Thanks in advance.
What's the relation between the two? Simple lookup from Lead to Class? In theory it should be many-to-many, with junction object.
From what I remember custom lookups from lead aren't available in the W2L form. Only Campaign is. And it renders to similar HTML:
<label for="Campaign_ID">Campaign</label><select id="Campaign_ID" name="Campaign_ID"><option value="">--None--</option><option value="701700000005lMn">International Electrical Engineers Association Trade Show - Mar 4-5, 2002</option>
<option value="701700000005lMl">User Conference - Jun 17-19, 2002</option>
<option value="701700000005lMk">GC Product Webinar - Jan 7, 2002</option>
<option value="701700000005lMm">DM Campaign to Top Customers - Nov 12-23, 2001</option>
</select><br>
So perhaps you could fake it, hand-craft similar HTML, point to your custom field, put right record ids in the options... Messy. Or consider displaying Campaigns & Campaign member stuff and then have something else (process builder? trigger?) that maps it from campaign to class.
If you have many-to-many or don't really like such workarounds - yup, looks like some code needed. Perhaps expose a Visualforce page as Site for signing up. Or - for non-technical people - Site.com might be tempting. https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/23252/difference-between-force-com-site-and-site-com

Enabling country/State picklist on custom fields in Salesforce

Under Accounts, we have a custom fields for Project country and Project State, I am trying to enable to the Country/State picklist for these custom fields.
Looking for any 3rd party plugin which will implement for Country/State picklist within Salesforce on custom field.
Followed the steps from https://resources.docs.salesforce.com/204/latest/en-us/sfdc/pdf/state_country_picklists_impl_guide.pdf for Enabling the State/country picklist, however it just worked on Address Standard field.
I need to implement the same on custom fields.
Please note: I have already implemented Global value picklist, and using the field dependency created controlling picklist (Country) and Controlled (State), however the dependent picklist has a limitation of 1500 values only.
Looking for any 3rd party plugin which will implement for Country/State picklist within Salesforce on custom field.
According to me there is no standard approach or configuration you can do to achieve this. I would suggest you to have a custom metadata and lightning component.
On the Account have a text field:
1. Country
2. State
Custom Metadata:
1. Country
2. State
You can have a relationship field from State to Country. Create all the country and State records.
Build a custom lightning component to add it on the detail page of Account. On this component show the Country and State value from Account fields. Have a edit button when you edit Country and State should be displayed as picklist. When you change the Country State picklist should be populated from the metadata.

State and country picklist in salesforce

I configured the Billing Country and Billing State/province as picklist in salesfoce. The problem of this picklist; it contains just some of countr's state like Canada, US. When I choose US as country automatically the billing state/province displays list of state of US. But when I choode Belguim as Country I get None in billing state/province picklist. My question is How to import the Country's states/provinces list like Belguim.
Best regards
By default SF doesn't include any Belgium states, but you can add them yourself. Just go to Setup > Data Management > State and Country/Territory Picklists > Configure States and Countries and Territories. Find Belgium in the list and click "Edit" next to it. You'll see that it has 0 States and there will be a "New State" button.

how does pof generate cities from countries chosen manually or automatic

How does the site pof.com generate the cities based on the country you choose?
when you click the country you currently live in, in the city selection there is a drop down menu of different cities. How did they accomplish this?
i would like to know this to help guide registration in my website based on city of residence.
were all the cities from each individual country entered manually?
You can use the Google Places API for that.
