Geocoding not working while doing mass import through WP ALL Import

What version of JM are you on now?

I am using listify.
I m on their latest version release.

WP Job Manager version – I added WP ALL IMPORT support in 1.19, but you need to ensure you set the _job_location meta data for it to work.

Hi Mike, my version is 1.19.0
I checked _job_location is being filleed out.
It is also getting migrated but geocoding is not happenign. Do I need to provide any API key or sth anywhere.

In fact if I go to front end, click on edit listing and I am not making any changes but just saving, the geocoding is happening, but not happenign from back end…

Kindly guide.

After import, go to the ‘custom fields’ section of the job. Screenshot me what fields are there (before saving).

Hi Mike, here is the output from the logfile during import:

=========================

As you can see the Custom field _job_location has been updated with right address value during upload. Yet, during import it is not getting geocoded auomatically.

Please let me know your email address where I can send you the screenshots…

I can see you’ve set geolocated = 1 in the above log. If that field is set, no geolocation is done.

Hi.. I’m having the same problem.. sometimes it chooses to geolocate and sometimes it does not.. I have around 300,000 listings which need to be imported and it doesn’t make sense to go and hit update on each listing..

Ive set geolocated to 0, to 1, and it just doesn’t make sense that neither works.

please help..

Thanks!

@noob101 – just wondering if you created your own thread or if you were able to resolve this. I’m having the same issue too.

The issue seems to be with wp-job-manager. While the Listify WP Import All add-on does geocoding, wp-job-manager does it’s own geocoding to get the address (not just the lat/lng).

Wp-job-manager doesn’t support an API key, and when I looked at the data coming from their API call I got:

[error_message] => Requests to this API must be over SSL.

For what it’s worth, we do support keys, but you need to add it via a filter:

Hi, I had same error, but api key didn’t solve my problem.
The strange stuff is that geocoding worked for old address (about 1600), but it didn’t work for new ones. All ok instead on fresh wordpress install… very strange for me.

I did in this way:

class: class-wp-job-manager-geocode.php
method: get_location_data
row: 126
solution: i changed the url from http to https and it works (“https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=”) also if my website isn’t over https.

if it works also for other situations, could you update the code?

Thanks

Submitted a pull request here to change it:

Not sure if that’s really what the fix was to be honest, but it can’t hurt. ??
