    Visiting the root of the site will always reset the location, the auto redirect only works on the first visit, then it is stored as a session, you would need to close the browser and then reopen to get it again.

    Ahhhh, now when i close the browser and open a new browser window it works so thank you for that. But if the tab’s closed in Chrome and then I open another tab and go back to the site it zooms out to show the whole of the country like before. Do you know of anything that could fix that or if it’s possible with customisation? What would it be related to? Perhaps this seems a little pedantic however one of the main purposes of my site is so that people can see precisely which locations are that may be their street corner when they visit the homepage. I’m sure that most won’t always close the tab and then reopen a new tab to go back to the site again, plus people who have a laptop and/or smartphone will know to zoom in… although it’s not what I want site users to have to do, I would like their location with the little blue radar to just be right in front of them all the time showing nearby locations.

    Just another question, apart from categorized listings what is the most significant map feature you developed that is different to what businesses registered on google maps can do? This will help me to make full use of any advantages it has over just a google map listing.

    I would suggest adding the Near me button widget or shortcode to the site so users can choose to go to the nearest.
