    I have read the overview for importing data. https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-export/

    It states that post_latitude and longitude are required. However, it is impossible to manually search for these two field with a large database. There are automatically generated when a listing is added manually. Is there anyway to have the system automatically generally these two field with address when using importing option? thank you!

    post_latitude: latitude in signed degrees format, for example -20.97625669
    post_longitude: longitude in signed degrees format, for example 162.45444

    Lat and ng can only be auto-created if adding a listing from the frontend or admin area of your site.
    If preparing a CSV for import, have a look at https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-export/#resources

    Thanks

    Thank you! I was able to generate those. By the way, I used http://geoservices.tamu.edu/ to do geocoding. it is great! they give 2500 transaction for free if anyone want to use it.
