Thread: Location Based Search

Location Based Search

Is it technically possible to add a "Location" search field and a "Radius" to the searchbar similiar to the JobRoller theme? Can this be done with a widget or do I need some custom programming?

For example: when a user searches for a car in Amsterdam and chooses a radius of 5000mi, the search results will also show cars in e.g. Berlin.

Thanks!

BTW: Do you have some more info when you'll be releasing the Vantage theme?

The advanced search filter in Classipress already includes parameter for radius and a search field.

You can check the theme release status page http://www.appthemes.com/releases/ for theme development updates.

I am also interested in the location radius search for Classipress (the same functionality as JobRoller).
Is it enabled via config?
Also, is there an example of Classipress location radius search and advanced search that you can show me?
(The official demo doesn't appear to have these features enabled).
Thanks!

The demo page is currently being updated and the advanced search feature will be reinstated soon.
