How do I get user's current position with Location field?

[fifteen15studios]

Hi Modern Tribe,

The addition of Pro has really helped us out, but I’m a bit confused about how the Location bar works. It looks like I can (kind of) put in a city if I write it the way it is in the list, and zip code seems to work fine. However, I’d like the ability to geolocate (or at least get close) the user’s position. I think I can make a button which can feed the GPS coordinates or IP location to the search field, but I was wondering if this feature was built in? If so, how do I activate it?

Thanks,
Brendan

Hey @fifteen15studios,

Thanks for reaching out!

This is unfortunately not a default feature that is built-in to the plugin, and therefore is not possible to have on your site without some extensive custom-coding 🙁

I’m sorry to disappoint! Let me know if this information helps and/or if there’s anything else that I can help with.

Sincerely,
George
