iCal Importer not importing venue with GPS coordinates

[Dan]

I have successfully installed the paid iCal importer and configured to import an iCal feed that contains GPS coordinates for the Venue.

iCal snippet: GEO:29.75345;-98.16854 LOCATION:The Smith’s

The Venue name is stored correctly but no address and the map doesn’t show without the address.
Does iCal support GPS coordinates and address conversion?
If no address conversion, should it not show on the map?

Hi Dan.

Item #12 from https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/running-a-one-time-import-with-the-ical-importer/ states:

A note regarding venues: If you’re importing events with venue information attached, there are limitations to how the data is saved on import. Specifically, venue addresses will need to be manually added to the event in order for it to show in map view.

I’m not sure if this is addresses your exact question/issue, but it might.

If you don’t think it applies, please provide me with the iCal URL or .ics file and I can see if I can replicate the issue and look into it further.

Thank you.
