The Location field provides: * a search field where you can type in some coordinates or an address and hit ` Enter`. * a Google map which you can click at the desired location. In both cases, Google will find the location and return the coordinates and the complete address, if you want it complete. A marker will be added at the desired location. #### Source Repository on GitHub https://github.com/julienbechade/acf-location-field #### Bugs, Questions or Suggestions https://github.com/julienbechade/acf-location-field/issues #### Usage Make sure you read the [Advanced Custom Fields](http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/docs/getting-started/)‘ s documentation first. **Back-end** The Location field comes with 3 options: 1. The map address let you choose the value(s) to return on the front-end: 2. * Coordinates & address * Coordinates 3. The map center let you set the coordinates used to center the initial blank map. 4. The map zoom. **Front-end** Retrieving the value(s) on the front-end differs according to the Map address options. * Coordinates & address $location = get_field(‘location’); echo $location[‘address’]; echo $location[‘coordinates’]; * Coordinates the_field(‘location’); ## Screenshots [⌊Location field and its options⌉⌊Location field and its options⌉[ Location field and its options [⌊Location field on an edit-post page⌉⌊Location field on an edit-post page⌉[ Location field on an edit-post page [⌊Type in a partial address or some coordinates⌉⌊Type in a partial address or some coordinates⌉[ Type in a partial address or some coordinates [⌊Choose to get the complete address⌉⌊Choose to get the complete address⌉[ Choose to get the complete address ## Installation The Location Field plugin can be used as a WordPress plugin or included in other plugins or themes.
