    Hello,

    thank you for this plugin. It does exactly what I was looking for.

    I would just like to automate a task, is that possible.

    For the website of my work, we are setting up a job search system.
    I would like to use your plugin to display these offers on a map.
    However, I would like that when you indicate the city in the space provided for it (Job Manager) it automatically puts the city on the map.

    Is there a way to do it?

    I thank you in advance.

    Cordially.

    Dear @nghtmre,

    No it’s not possible :/

    I tried to do an automated system like that in a client website some time ago.
    It was on normal posts (not related to Job manager).
    I succeeded in copying the field into the search field of Travelers’ Map, however I did not succeed to automate the search (simulating a click or a submit event did not work), so the user was still needing to search manually for the marker to update…
    I removed it because it was unintuitive (user were going to think it worked but it didn’t).

    If you wanted to have an automated system, you would have to get the lat and long of the marker first, with a map searching library (or with the search field of travelers map, if you succeed to simulate the search form submit), then autofill the lat and long fields of Travelers’ Map.

    Anyway it is far beyond the range of this support forum, you need to hire a developer for this ?? (and before you ask, I’m sorry I already have a full-time job, this plugin is updated and supported during my free time)

    Have a nice day,
    Camille

    Hello @socrapop,

    Thank you very much for your reply.
    I totally understand that you don’t have time and this is normal.

    Your plugin is already very well thought out and is already helping me a lot.

    It’s a great job.

    I’m going to see with a friend who has a better level than mine in the hope of …

    Thank you again for your answer.

    cordially
