    I know this functionality got lost as part of the upgrade to V2. I stepped away from my site for a while, but am back at it and don’t see this. If it’s not a thing yet, can I get an upate/ETA? And if it is, can you please tell me how to access/activate?

    You can find a Distance field in the CPT Search tab when you have Adavnced Search Addon installed.

    That tab is shown here: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/places/search/

    Sorry Alex, I’m feeling a bit dense but don’t know what you mean, and the instructions at that page aren’t making any sense to me. Need help. : (

    Here’s my Places Settings, specifically those within the Search by Distance.

    The stuff about create a Custom Select Field in Search Bar is totally over my head. Where and how do I do “Create a new custom field that is a select field” exactly? If I click over to my Custom Fields tab I see an option to add custom fields, but this is telling me I need to add such a thing to my SEARCH form.

    I’ve pored over that set of instructions and tried my best, but I’m missing something obvious, I know it, and am stumped.

    Never mind, I figured it out! The instructions focus on Places, so that’s where I made the changes. But in my site Places is a distant third in terms of importance so all of my checking and testing from the front end was on my Clubs and Events categories.

    Got it, glad you figured it out.
