    Hi Robert,

    Thanks for your post. Could you share your Website WP admin access here in private reply so that I could try to replicate it?

    Thanks!

    Zip codes are often duplicated around the world.
    You can use the “Search near additional” text in search options to clue in Google about where state or country your directory listings are located in.

    Hi,

    it appears you have removed the map.

    Near search is actually a lat lon query and requires lat lon to work correctly. Lat/lon’s input is the map pinpoint.

    Until each listing has map lat lon no near search will work.

    You can try OpenStreetMap to start, then add the address and drag the map pin for all your listings to set the address. then it should work, yes
