Find A New Location Doesn't Work for Leaflet Or Openlayers

    I’ve switched to Leaflet maps due to API limit issues with Google but I now can’t add a new location via the post editor when using Leaflet or OpenLayers. Nothing happens when enter is hit.

    I have tested it on a clean install with WordPress 2015 Theme and it still won’t complete an address or postcode based query.

    However, if I add a postcode to the geocode custom field via a front end form then the postcode is geocoded correctly when the post is published/updated

    Anyone have any ideas?

  • Maybe because in other maps the address lookup is not so advanced like in Google Maps.

    You should enter the latitude, longitude instead of the address. You could use this website: https://www.latlong.net/

    Enter the free form address, for example 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
    Washington, DC 20500. Then you will have the latitude, longitude: 38.897609, -77.036735. Just enter this into the address field while you are in the post editor, then hit enter, then it will find the address.

    So just enter exactly this into the address field:

    38.897609, -77.036735
