    Hi Team,

    I am using Advance search addon and I have enabled checkbox of near me option(attaching screenshot). Could you help me in making “near me” as default search without click on the checkbox of “near me”?

    That is not possible out of the box.
    But you can change the settings on first entry to your site to redirect visitors to their nearest listings at GD > Advanced Search > REDIRECT SETTINGS ON FIRST TIME LOAD > Redirect to nearest location (on first time load users will be auto geolocated and redirected to nearest geolocation found)

    See https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/search-filters-overview/#redirect

    Thanks

    is that possible instead of clicking “near me” checkbox, we click on only navigation button which will consider as “near me” checkbox?
    I have done a survey of around 30 people, they are ignored “near me” checkbox.they are only used to click on navigation button and did their search.

    The redirection settings will automatically set the location search to “Near me”.

    You can add the “GD > Near Me Button” widget as an option. Thanks
