Swapping Geo Value

When Geo is displayed on a template, the value of this may not be best represented to what the Geo location is. The value can be updated in the custom branding file using the css below:

Hides Current Value

.mercury-geo-{Geo Value}[data-geo*="{Geo Value}"] span {
  display: none;
}

Sets New Value

.mercury-geo-{Geo Value}[data-geo*="{Geo Value}"]::before {
  content: '{New Geo Value}';
}
