After setting up the external database authentication including data mapping for the "Country" field I had hoped that the country of external users will also show up in their Moodle profiles. Unfortunately that does not happen, that is the country field in their Moodle profiles stays unselected.
Because mapping does for other fields I suspect the reason might be that country is not a free-form field but has a limited set of valid values. The external database provides country names in English language which just might not be the correct format.
Do you have any ideas on how to get country mapping right?
I am running Moodle 3.11.7+ (Build: 20220610).
