Default location access granting

Thanks, but this isn’t quite what I was referring to. In the example: https://wpgeo.directory
it does it automatically without the user having to hit the ‘near me’ button. As soon as the site loads, you’re prompted to share your location. In the Advanced Search plugin, which is still very cool, the user has to hit the ‘near me’ button before this occurs.

GD > Advanced search > REDIRECT SETTINGS ON FIRST TIME LOAD > First time load redirect > Redirect to nearest location (on first time load users will be auto geolocated and redirected to nearest geolocation found)

PS: Please log in with your current membership if you’d like support for GD addons.

I have the newest version of Advanced search and still I don’t see the option “GD > Advanced search > REDIRECT SETTINGS ON FIRST TIME LOAD > First time load redirect > Redirect to nearest location”

Please let me know where I’m going wrong.

I wasn’t aware of the need for the Location Manager plugin. Excellent support! Thanks again!

Hi again. I have another quick question.

I discovered that you need a SSL certificate in order to automatically locate on Safari and Chrome. This is fine, I am installing one now and testing in Firefox for the time being.

However, I noticed there’s an option ‘Ask user if they wish to be geolocated’ <- this is exactly what I need. I have it checked, but it doesn’t actually work unless I also activate ‘First time load redirect’ to either ‘default location’ or ‘closest location’. I really can’t have a redirect to these pages because I have a terms and conditions page that needs to be accepted once you enter my site and secondly I have a homepage that the user should be brought to instead.

So far, I’m able to get it to redirect to the /location/me page and then if I navigate to /home, I am geolocated, which is great – but I need to go straight to the home page instead.

As an alternative, I was able to disable the ‘First time load redirect’ and simply click the compass button on the homepage and it also achieves geolocation. Can I trigger this function on page-load instead of having to hit the compass button?
