View Google Map in backend before publishing a Venue

[Joanna Shebson]

Is there a way to view the Google Map in the Admin area for Venues before publishing a venue to make sure that Google recognizes the address? Thanks.

I need this answered also. Maybe a custom way to point a certain map coordinates as google maps keep failing locating the addres I entered. I dont live in USA, so google map just have no clue on my countery addreses. A simple 2 textfield for exact geo map cordinates should help.

Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately, this functionality isn’t currently support in the plugin. If this is something you’d like to see in a future release, I would suggest submitting it as an idea on our UserVoice page. Our team periodically reviews the most popular ideas for possible inclusion in a future release of the plugin.

Please let me know if you have further questions or if I can help further. Thanks! 🙂

is there any workaround suggestion? I just need to put longitude and altitude coordinates so the map not showing to different/wrong places. Right now the venue is not usable for me.

widhimuttaqien,
Unfortunately not without significant customizations of the plugin. You could always add an additional field with a direct URL to the Google Map, so that your users can find the location that you specify. I know that’s not ideal, but it would at least allow your users to view a map.

Hope that helps! Thanks! 🙂
