location search by UK Postcode

[James Appleyard]

Hi,

I am considering purchasing the pro version for our website, but I have a specfic requirement to enable people to search for events by their own UK postcode and/or current location and return results for events close to them. Is it possible for the location search to return results of events within a specific radius of/close to a postcode, rather than just return events held at a specific location/postcode?

Howdy James,

Good question!

Events Calendar PRO itself does indeed include a “Near” search field in the calendar header. You can see this in action on our demo site:

http://wpshindig.com/events/

Note the “Show Filters” option below the search bar. That is our Filter Bar add-on, which provides an option to filter events by distance from a location. That’s a handy search feature as well.

Will that work for you? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers and happy new year!
Geoff
