Are the following changes possible in Location Filter module.
- choose location from a drop down list. when there are many locations, a drop-down is convenient.
- mulitple levels - can we apply filter at, Country level, and then at State level if required.

1. possible but you will need to get quite deep down in the code and modify it.
2. I doubt this is going to be possible without rewriting most of the module.

thanks.
The default field is set to state. And we can change to an extra field in config file. Is it possible to change it to the city field? What would I need to change? If I replace all $state with $city, will it work?

I have never tried to do that. Best to give it a whirl by picking through each file and using city rather than state. Alternatively you could replace your states by cities in your control panel although that may not be ideal.
