How to remove the country region selector in the footer? DAWN THEME

Topic summary

Issue: The country/region selector remains visible in the Dawn theme footer even after uninstalling Shopify’s geolocation app.

Solutions Provided:

  1. Via Theme Customizer (Recommended):

    • Navigate to Online Store → Customize → Footer section
    • Uncheck the “Show country/region” checkbox
    • This method successfully resolved the issue for the original poster
  2. Via Custom CSS Code:

    • Go to Online Store → Theme → Edit code
    • Open base.css file
    • Add CSS code at bottom: .footer__localization { display: none; }
    • Multiple users confirmed this approach works

Related Currency Issue:
When the selector is enabled, changing countries doesn’t update currency. This requires:

  • Enabling Shopify Payments and configuring markets in admin panel, OR
  • Installing a third-party currency converter app (recommended: Currency Converter app)

Mobile-Specific Concerns:
Some users report the selector still appears on mobile view despite applying fixes. For the Sense theme, targeting .div.locale-selectors__container { display:none !important } in base.css was reported as effective.

The discussion remains partially open with ongoing troubleshooting for mobile display issues.

even after uninstallation of the geolocation Shopify app, the country/region selector is still present in the footer of my website. Why does this occur? and what causes this?

Any help or links would be appreciated.

Thank you :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @justauser ,
In order to disable the country region selector just go to online store and open customize settings and select footer.
From there look for Show country/region checkbox as shown in image and just uncheck that checkbox and save

The region dropdown will hide from store. Let me know if you face any difficulty in working on this.
Thanks

@kaalTechGeeks Thank you. it worked. but one issue I am facing is when the country selector is enabled and if the user is to select a change to a different country, the currencies are not changing! everything stays in USD. Any idea why?

Please note that I still have not selected a payment provider.

Hi @justauser , yes I know that in the country selector when you change the country the currency does not change it maybe because that you have not added currencies from the market section of the admin panel. And the values are directly picked from the countries you have selected along with the currency you have choose to be used on your store for different regions.
Thanks

@kaalTechGeeks Ah I see, I get it now. So in order for the currency management, the Shopify payments must be enabled right?

What to do when Shopify Payment is not available in my country.

Thank you so much for replying! :slightly_smiling_face:

@justauser ,
You can go with a currency converter app such as the one I am attaching the link below: https://apps.shopify.com/currency-converter-11
I have personally used this app for most of my client and it is the best free app I would recommend for currency conversion.
Thanks

Hello Justauser, maybe you can give me a little help.
I’m trying to remove the selector from the bottom of the website, but this selector is not on the footer. This selector is located after the footer, and I couldn’t find how to remove it. I hope you or someone else here can give me this help.

Hello Justauser. I already fixed it. Thanks.
I’m using the theme ‘sense.’ I found the div name and used the code below at the bottom of file base.css.

div.locale-selectors__container{
display:none !important;
}

I don’t know if it’s the best solution, but it works.
Thank you.
