Location Services Not Working

    Hi all!

    We are looking to build a site for users who won’t be logged in to the system. They will simply be visiting the site to find locations near them.

    Having installed the plugin we have the functionality up and running using the Google Maps API. Everything seems to run smoothly as long as there is an active login If you have simply visited the site and are not logged in, the Maps API functionality is limited and I have noted that the following is logged in the developers console:
    Uncaught ReferenceError: google is not defined
    at search-form-listing.js?ver=5.6.1:87
    at search-form-listing.js?ver=5.6.1:135
    (anonymous) @ search-form-listing.js?ver=5.6.1:87
    (anonymous) @ search-form-listing.js?ver=5.6.1:135

    Is there a fix for this so that all functionality is available for visitors to the site?

    I would also like to ask if there is a way to make the site focus on the users location on the window load?

    Many thanks!

    I noticed this too and manually added the Google Maps loading script to all pages but this is a really bad temporary hackfix.
    I believe the shortcodes dont load the maps API scripts.

    @technicalx, do you have an example of the type of code you placed?

    Would be great if Directorist could fix this. Lookong to paying a subscription but this is a major issue for us if it doesn’t work.

    Yeah sure, put this in your site header

    <script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&libraries=places">
/* fix directorist bugs not loading main stuff sometimes */
</script>

    Marking this as resolved since the issue was resolved via the site support system.
    The issue was transpiring due to enabling “Defer Render-Blocking” in SG Optimizer plugin.
