Answers.Text: Glad you found your answer!  Consider hiring from the [CiviCRM partner listing](https://civicrm.org/partners-contributors) - not only will you be getting folks who know CiviCRM well, you can also support folks who financially support the software, which is necessary to keep its quality high.

  I have hired a freelancer to create CiviCRM Sign-Up form featuring Tell-A-Friend and validation email.
  
  Using CiviCRM contact Caldera Processor, he created the form shown below but has an integration problem - is not able to map created custom fields "Province" and "Municipality" into CiviCRM's standard fields "State/Province" and "City".
  
  He is not able to use the standard fields as they do not allow him to have 2 pull-down menus (Province and Municipality – see picture below) and other features (Tell-A-Friend and verification email). Your comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
