    vBulletin doesn't have any feature that will display a user's country.

    Such information would be gleaned from IP addresses which is not definitive in any case.

      Just add a custom profile field for the country. That's what I did for my forum. I also have a free mod to display custom fields on postbit

        Does the mod work on Cloud Glenn?

          No, because it requires uploading a product XML which is not allowed in vBCloud. But there may be another way to do it in vBCloud. I think I have done it before in one of my vBCloud clients but I've never posted it.
