[Plugin: Events Manager] Location Search Not Working

location autocomplete should work? or settings > general > general options > Use dropdown for locations?

if it’s not showing an auto-completer, you may have other plugins causing a conflict.

to check that, try disabling other plugins and or use the default theme temporarily to see if it works.

Thanks for responding Marcus. I figured it out!

The feature was working in the back-end but not in the front-end, so I guessed it might not be a plugin conflict.

I then realized that in the back-end, the page was loaded using HTTPS but not the front-end. When I forced the front-end page to load using HTTPS, the location search worked.

What are you using to force HTTPS in the backend? I’m curious because provided you have a valid SSL certificate it should still work if you use e.g. https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Administration_Over_SSL

I put the following lines in my wp-config.php file to force the HTTPS:

define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);
define('FORCE_SSL_Workspace Login', true);

The HTTPS/WordPress issue has be frustrating to deal with as well. I find that when I force the HTTPS using the above method, it forces HTTPS on ALL my pages which ruins the javascript elements on my pages and/or I get the annoying warning message in the address bar that my site is not secure. This only happened with Chrome. I didn’t have those issues when I used FireFox.

I only need HTTPS for my login page right now but this may change in the future.

To resolve that issue I installed an plugin called “Force non-SSL” which seemed to fix everything, except for the location search.

Removing the force HTTPS lines from my wp-config.php file and calling up the login page with a https link was my solution for now.

So I basically ran around in a huge circle and pretty much ended up back where I started! LOL
