    On the detail page i see the street of the adress like

    6, EFA-Straße

    In Germany the correct writing ist EFA-Straße 6, the Number of the House ist behind the streetname.

    If i create a new entry i write the address correct Bahnhofstraße 1 in the address field. Then i press the “Set Address On Map” Button and the address changes to 1, Bahnhofstraße (wrong formatting fpr german addresses)

    What can i do?

    Happen the same with spanish addresses.
    Although at least with the Multi-location addon activated dont change the address when you press the “Set Address On Map” Button.

    Hi Vikas,

    good idea from amolin, please dont change the address in the address field when you press the “Set Address On Map” Button.

    Is this a solution?

    You can set the address on the map, and then change the street input before saving. In my tests that keeps the location on the map, and keep the desired input in the address field. This will not work for users of course.

    So a +1 from me.

    I would also like the address field to be optional, for those businesses that have not a physical presence; that would enable them to just add the city, but not the street address. See also https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/wishlist-suggestions/#post-1953
