Hello,

Is there a way to submit keywords via the API and have the API search and return based on those keywords or would I need to take the keywords, do an API GET, parse and search the return based on the keywords. I’m trying to figure out if I need to write a java search method or if I can just submit directly to the API and have the work done on the backend.
…also, submitting device current lat/lng to the API to get location listings based on distance doesn’t seem to be working I am using
```
wp-json/geodir/v2/business/?latitude=-37.699&longitude=-122.130
```
as a query. No matter what lat/lng values I use, the listings show in the same order.

Hi Rodney,

We have an open task for this but it is not currently implemented for the posts route, but it is possible on the markers route like /wp-json/geodir/v2/markers/?post_type=gd_place&lat=55.6789&lon=-4.1234&term[]=4&term[]=10

For search just add “&search=term”

Thanks,

Stiofan

Hi Rodney,

This has been implemented and it will be in next version of GeoDirectory v2.0.0.70.

Examples:
1) Using Latitude & Longitude
– latitude=xxx.xxxxxx&longitude=xxx.xxxxxx
– Example:
```
/wp-json/geodir/v2/places/?latitude=21.8380&longitude=73.7190&distance=10&orderby=distance&order=asc
```
2) Using IP Address
– ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
– Example:
```
/wp-json/geodir/v2/places/?ip=103.216.82.146&distance=10&orderby=distance&order=asc
```
3) Using Near Me (auto-detects IP of the user and find nearest posts)
– near=me
– Example:
```
/wp-json/geodir/v2/places/?near=me&distance=10&orderby=distance&order=asc
```
4) Using Address
– near=xxxxxx
– Example:
```
/wp-json/geodir/v2/places/?near=Surat&distance=10&orderby=distance&order=asc
```
Regards,
Kiran

Hello,

I’ve updated to v2.0.0.70 but get the following error from the api when trying to order results by distance.
```
D/OkHttp: {"code":"rest_invalid_param","message":"Invalid parameter(s): orderby","data":{"status":400,"params":{"orderby":"orderby is not one of featured_desc, overall_rating_asc, post_date_asc, post_title_asc."}}}
```

Hi Rodney,

Sorry for the inconvenience. Actually some part of search by near location & distance filter is in Location Manager and it will be released soon.

Provide us FTP credentials if you want me to apply patch on your site.

Best Regards,
Kiran
