## Beskriuwing

Region detect is a plugin for WordPress that detects the country that the current
visitor is browsing from.

It can display the country to the user; something like: Hello visitor from Spain!
or display a flag of the country. The plugin also makes the ISO 3166-1 country code
and country name avaliable to other plugins.

## Ynstallaasje

 1. Extract the zip file and just drop the contents in the `wp-content/plugins/` directory
    of your WordPress installation.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ page.
 3. Copy the MaxMind country database to the plugin folder, or add your MaxMind license
    key to the plugin admin panel.
 4. If you are using the web service enable caching and select the cache length that
    you need.
 5. Use %%COUNTRYCODE%% or %%COUNTRYNAME%% in your posts to display the two character
    country code or country name respectively.

## FAQ

  Do I have to pay for the MaxMind database?

No, MaxMind offer a free version of the database. However the paid for version is
more accurate.

  I am a wordpress developer and want to access the country code or name in my code.
How do I do that?

Easy 🙂 Just declare the global variables $rdISO3166_1 or $rdCountryName in your
code and away you go.
