I know there is probably some instruction somewhere on this, but for the life of me I cannot find where to enable the search by distance function. Can anyone help? Here’s the site:

Hello Kenny, to enable the search by distance, go to your custom field settings (e.g. Place Settings) and then click the Advanced Search tab. Then you can drag the “Search by distance” field and it will appear in the search (see attach.).

Awesome. I’ve got that configured as you stated. You da man. Follow up question… Is there a way to call the search form outside of a widget? Perhaps with a function?

Thanks!

Yes, you can output a widget with the following code:
```
 <?php the_widget( 'geodir_advance_search_widget' ); ?> 
```
