    Hi @wphh,

    The links to your site https://dev.fmals.de are behind a login, so I could not see what you’re describing.

    Please note that WP Job Manager core doesn’t have Radius search functionality. WP Job Manager does not handle the mapping features – those are implemented by your chosen theme. WP Job Manager includes geolocation (outputting longitude and latitude on listings) so themes (or plugins) can map the listings.

    In terms of setting up Google API, I’d recommend that you make sure that geolocation_lat and geolocation_long` are always populated so your map has something to use. These settings are located in the bottom part of the Job edit screen in wp-admin. Screenshot here: https://cld.wthms.co/PfwWh3

    When you enter a job location and save (or create a new job) it should pull these values from Google.

    You can read more about Geocoding with Google Maps API in WP Job Manager here:

    https://wpjobmanager.com/document/geocoding-with-googles-maps-api/

    As far as the “Radius Search” function goes, I’d reach out to theme developers about the search function specifically after making sure Google API is set up correctly.

    @wphh
    we had a simmilar issue about 2 weeks ago.
    I was in contact with Myles who provides the search and filtering plugin and we also use the carriera theme.
    It seems that your google maps API key is not configured right. You need to enable the plcaes api and Geocoding API in that key and th keye must have no restricitons.
    Then it should work

    Thank you @bluejay77 for taking the time to reply!

    You are totally right, I now have deactivated the password protection ??

    I just checked it: all job offers have geolocation_lat and geolocation_long` populated. It works also finde, whenever I add a new job. That’s why on my job listing page radius search works perfectly.

    It’s just that the search bar on the home page for some locations as “K?ln” produces an error: the results in the job listings area tells me “Es gibt momentan keine freien Stellen.” / no jobs available, although the text in the sidebar widget says “6 passende Ergebnisse gefunden.” / 6 matching results found. So there ARE results, but they are not displayed. And it happens only for certain locations and only if you start your search at the home page…

    Thanks for sharing your experience @braehler

    I made sure to have all APIs activated that are required for the cariera theme. According to the support document these are:
    Geocoding API
    Geolocation API
    Maps JavaScript API
    Places API
    (I also tried the option no API restrictions)
    I have no application restrictions.
    Billing is active / enabled…

    @wphh , since the custom fields is populated with the geolocation data, WP Job Manager geolocation is working correctly.

    The issue now seems to be the implementation of radius search within your custom plugin. In this forum, we are unable to discuss any issues related to third-party plugins and we will advise reaching out back to the developer of the plugin you are using about the issue.
