Events not appearing in Map View due to missing lat/long

[B Saffell]

Events are failing to appear in the Map view of the calendar. With some testing, we’ve narrowed down the problem to them not having lat/long parameters.

Since we’re using the Community Events module, users submitting the event can’t add lat/long at that point (they can only be added, manually and one by one, after the event is created) – so this is something of a major problem.

This doesn’t appear to be a case of (the usual) Google API not recognizing the address format: I have tested creating a ‘new’ venue with exactly the same address and in the same format format as an existing venue with the result that the new venue fails to show up. The only difference between the two is that the first (being displayed correctly in map view) has lat/long data that has been manually added, and the other does not…

Any ideas?
