    In the search bar, when people go to search on my directory, I want to have them search by location and not have to be required to put in any key words. Currently if you enter a zip code with no keywords, it then won’t find any of the listings. How can I make it to where it searches by location and make the key word section optional?

    The key word section is optional. Maybe there are no listings around the center of the city of which the ZIP is searched?

    One of the places I have created is located in the same zipcode that I am typing in near.

    Search results for ZIP code do not return results IN a ZIP code, but will return results NEAR the centre ofcthe ZIP code. Please review the link i posted again.
    Sometimes a ZIP code used in one country will return results around the centre of the ZIP code in another country, depending on what the Google API thinks you mean.

    If we need to have a closer look, post your URL, WP admin details, details of the listing and the ZIP and we’ll have a look for you. Please post these details in a private reply.
