    Did you input your Google Map credentials?

    You cannot set your default location to everywhere, and you must add your Google API Key:

    https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/definitions/#default-location

    Thanks

    You have to click on “Set Address on Map” to generate the long/lat directives.

    Frank,

    looks like your Google Maps Credentials are not set correctly. What is the console saying?

    Best,
    Dirk

    Hi Frank,

    trying to set the default location to everywhere is probably what created the problem.

    Try this: add a 0 (zero) to both the city latitude and city longitude fields and save.

    That should bring back the map. After that click the “set address on map” button and that should fetch the city lat and lon for New York.

    If you are unable to do that too, please provide a link and admin credentials and we will have a look at your settings.

    Let us know,

    Thanks

    Paolo, many thanks for your guide, this wirked for me!

    Now for my last question before getting all set and purchasing premium version.

    What is a default adresse needed for ?

    I am asking this because, after now been able to set default adresse to city “zürich”, when i try to add a place in a other part of my country every time i click an set adresse on map the plugin tells me it must be in the region of the default adresse Zürich

    Fo you to understand: i set default to newyork, when trying to add a place las vegas it tells me that las vegas must be in the region of new york >> Strange

    Any ideas

    regards

    Hello!

    The free GeoDirectory plugin allows you to create a directory for one location, your default location.

    The Location Manager Addon enables your Global directory, so you can add listings to locations all over the world.

    The icon you added for the category does not exist, you need to add a new icon for the category at
    GD > Place Categories
    Thanks

    Use this CSS, adjust as required:

    

    #geodir-wrapper {
    width: 90%;
    margin: auto;
}
    

    This may be of interest for other styling changes: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/customizing-your-style/
    

    Thanks
