The website I run aims to connect car and motorcycle enthusiasts in the UK with shows of interest to them.<\/p>\n<p>The issue I am having is allowing users to find events with a certain distance of their location. Ideally I would like them to be able to enter their postcode and filter events within a chosen distance. There are several difficulties I am encountering:<\/p>\n<p>1 \u2013 The filter bar\u2019s location search field does not seem to be working when I enter a UK city. For instance when I enter \u2018London, UK\u2019 or \u2018Birmingham, UK\u2019 the relevant shows do not appear in the calendar.<\/p>\n<p>2 \u2013 I would prefer users to be able to search via their own postcode. I found this website http:\/\/events.eightlane.org\/latest\/ on your showcase page which manages to achieve postcodes searches in the UK and wondered how I could replicate that functionality &#8211; is it built in to the plugin or can you advise what I would need to change?<\/p>\n<p>Your help would be greatly appreciated as I am new to website creation!<\/p>\n<p>With thanks,<\/p>\n<p>James<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1053160","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Searching via postcode in the UK -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/searching-via-postcode-in-the-uk\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Searching via postcode in the UK -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hi! \ud83d\ude42 I am currently using Events Calendar Pro (loving it) however I am experiencing problems running the filter bar which should allow users to search via Geolocation.
