Hi,
yes this should work.

I’m seeing there a space in

property=”mostSpecificSubdivision. isoCode”

Is this space also in your website? Please remove it and try again …

Hi Benjamin,

thanks for your quick reply. No, I did not have space in the shortcode on the web page.

This is the code that is generated. Do you know maybe the reason for the inline style “display-none” ?

If I take that out, something will be displayed :-)`

<div class="js-geoip-detect-show-if geoip-hidden" style="display: none;" data-options="{&quot;skip_cache&quot;:false,&quot;lang&quot;:[&quot;en&quot;,&quot;en&quot;],&quot;default&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;property&quot;:&quot;mostSpecificSubdivision.isoCode&quot;,&quot;parsed&quot;:{&quot;op&quot;:&quot;and&quot;,&quot;not&quot;:0,&quot;conditions&quot;:[{&quot;p&quot;:&quot;mostSpecificSubdivision.isoCode&quot;,&quot;v&quot;:&quot;mo&quot;}]}}">

No the display:none is on purpose, it is removed by the JS script when the condition matches.

Did you make sure the IPs data is what you expect? You can use the backend lookup form for that (under “Tools”), and/or output the detected value:

[geoip_detect2 property="mostSpecificSubdivision.isoCode" default="(country could not be detected)"]

Hi,

The website operator told me that this worked worldwide. So if someone from Germany went to the website, he still got the closest events displayed (even if they are only in the USA).

The setup is unchanged and worked for the last 2 years. The only thing new is the website had a US server move and WordPress Core updates.

So the goal should be that no matter from where in the world a user accesses the website, the closest events should be displayed.

This is the result of the lookup

The function $record = geoip_detect2_get_info_from_current_ip(NULL); returns an object:
See API: PHP for more information.

Lookup duration: 20.35 ms
Lookup duration when called for the second time in the same request: 0.0820 ms

Value
$record->city->name	Hechingen
$record->mostSpecificSubdivision->isoCode	BW
$record->mostSpecificSubdivision->name	Baden-Württemberg
$record->country->isoCode	DE
$record->country->name	Germany
$record->location->latitude	48.3515000000000014779288903810083866119384765625
$record->location->longitude	8.963200000000000500222085975110530853271484375
$record->location->timeZone	Europe/Berlin

Except for the country code, name & Timezone, all other information provided are incorrect.

But it should show now Events that are Closest to the Result and I don’t know why this is not working anymore

I would recommend adding a shortcode “if client is not from the USA”:

[geoip_detect2_show_if property=”country.isoCode” not_property_value=”US”]

Like So ?

[geoip_detect2_show_if property="mostSpecificSubdivision.isoCode" property_value="MO"][geoip_detect2_show_if property=”country.isoCode” not_property_value=”US”][gd_listings post_type="gd_event" post_limit="3" add_location_filter="1" sort_by="event_dates_asc" title_tag="h3" layout="3" bottom_pagination="1" skin_id="884" skin_column_gap="30" skin_row_gap="0" category="24"][/geoip_detect2_show_if][/geoip_detect2_show_if]

Or [geoip_detect2_show_if property=”country.isoCode” not_property_value=”US”][gd_listings post_type="gd_event" post_limit="3" add_location_filter="1" sort_by="event_dates_asc" title_tag="h3" layout="3" bottom_pagination="1" skin_id="884" skin_column_gap="30" skin_row_gap="0" category="24"][/geoip_detect2_show_if]

And [geoip_detect2_show_if property="mostSpecificSubdivision.isoCode" property_value="MO"][gd_listings post_type="gd_event" post_limit="3" add_location_filter="1" sort_by="event_dates_asc" title_tag="h3" layout="3" bottom_pagination="1" skin_id="884" skin_column_gap="30" skin_row_gap="0" category="24"][/geoip_detect2_show_if][/geoip_detect2_show_if]

Like This?

You cannot have [geoip_detect2_show_if] inside another [geoip_detect2_show_if]. So probably more the second solutions, two shortcodes next to each other.
