Can’t get location search working for OSM or GoogleMap

Here’s an example of what I mean.

These searches should both show two results but they only show one.

https://demo.directorist.com/plugin/demo-one/search-result/?q=&in_cat=Select+a+category&address=+Dubai%2C+United+Arab+Emirates&cityLat=&cityLng=&price%5B0%5D=&price%5B1%5D=&search_by_rating=&minimum=0&miles=0

https://demo.directorist.com/plugin/demo-one/search-result/?q=&in_cat=Select+a+category&address=+Dubai%2C+24857%2C+United+Arab+Emirates&cityLat=&cityLng=&price%5B0%5D=&price%5B1%5D=&search_by_rating=&minimum=0&miles=0

This is a broader search
https://demo.directorist.com/plugin/demo-one/search-result/?q=&in_cat=Select+a+category&address=United+Arab+Emirates&cityLat=&cityLng=&price%5B0%5D=&price%5B1%5D=&search_by_rating=&minimum=0&miles=0

But the problem is that when you type in your suburb in Location search it fills in too much information like street and postcode, so it never matches a listing unless they are on your street.

Additionally, even though it searches an exact street it doesn’t get the coordinates and match nearby listings, try 1000 miles on the above searches.

Hello @technicalx

We are sorry for the trouble.

You are correct, it recently caught our attention. We are improving the search system and the issue should be resolved in the next update.

Let us know if we can be of any help.

Regards,

Fantastic.

How long will it take?

I fixed this via some easy edits in github. It is mainly because of some missing URL arguments that wont show up from a shortcode search.
