(Sorry to post so much, my mind is just working on this so much…)

Actually the phrase “Your location” is misleading. It should be “Search location” to be clear. And then it makes sense also, if I am now in New York, going to have a holiday in Malibu, so I of course then must tell the plugin which area I want to make searches from.

And now, because the auto-location goes to faulty place after category search, also the directions are totally wrong.

Tested also with Android phone.

So when the map page loads, with the locations, the auto-locate is not in use. The map shows the default location given in the settings. I have to press the arrow on the map.

And also in Android Chrome the location jumps to the incorrect, same place after the category search.

Or could I give the content of “your location” in the code to the parameter and then hide the field from the page?

Actually would be great, if the default for the “your location” would be given and visible (like “Town-name”) in the search area and the user could change it, if they like.

Yes, the autoload both loads the locations AND calculates distances, so the user input is not needed now.

Hi,

thanks for the quick answer. This is bad for my concept, oh no…

The load of locations on page load already works without the user writing the location by hand.

Also if the autolocate is off, and I have given a theoretical starting point in the center of the city (as I did) in the settings, then the distances are not true at all from the user’s real location. When the starting point is given in the settings, I think then the user should not need to write it again. And if you only give a town as location, the distances are not correct. And it already gives instructions (and thus distance) from the starting point from the settings, not from the user input?

So for now we have 2 locations already in the code: the autolocate or the starting point from the settings. It would be great if the category search could work with them, I think, without asking the user to write anything all the time they want to search for places. It is not user friendly.

Any chances you will make an update for the code?

Or could I edit the code somehow? I have been working with this quite a lot already, I love the plugin, but this makes it quite unusable for me… Because the users will use the map also with laptop (the autolocate often not working correctly) plus they will use it at home anywhere, before they travel to this destination city.

Thanks in advance.

I did review it :).

Hi Mihaela,

obviously the settings did change with the update. But works now, especially when you remember to empty the cache… haha.

Thanks for a great plugin.

Hi, thanks to you both.

So aib077, did you change only CSS or did you also change the code in .js?

I tried to play around a bit with css (I am no expert with it), made some changes, but not a success yet.

I think the problem is there is some resolution based code/css somewhere, where the slider changes its behavior: it starts to show only 1 pic at time (nothing shows on the left and right), then the arrows drop down, and funnyli, the dots also dissappear! I hope I would be better at CSS, but maybe the plugin owner can help us ??

I played with these:

.variablewidthv img {
height: auto!important; /* height: 400px!important; */
width: auto !important;
}

.wpsisac-slick-carousal.design-6 .slick-image-slide {
margin: 0!important;
/* height: 400px!important; */
}

Yep, I have the exactly same issue here (look at my previous post), and the arrows drop under a landscape photo because the height comes from the portrait photos. I also want the height of the slider to stay the same all the time, like it does on laptop. Thanks for posting this.

I sent an email to you with the urls. Thanks very much.

I am using Beaver Builder. For some reason, the design-6 is the only one that works. The others “go totally crazy”. I have not tried it out of BB.

In this design-6, which is perfect for me, I still see the dots and arrows, even disabled them in the shortcode. Is this a bug? Because if they would not be there (false), I would not have to worry about the arrows dropping down under the photo in mobile phone view.

This is my shortcode:

[slick-carousel-slider slidestoshow=”1″ design=”design-6″ centermode=”true” variablewidth=”true” dots=”false” arrows=”false” autoplay=”false”]

Thanks in advance :).

Hi,
thanks a lot for your quick answer. I cannot provide you with an example publickly (can I send it by email?), but I think the arrows drop down to the vertical center because I have both horizontal and portrait photos in the slider. So the height of the slider varies. Btw, your slider seems to be one of the very few that can handle this (not all images the same proportion) without cropping the photos, so thanks so much!!! This is what I have been looking for.

Oh, this was not about this plugin. Solved with negative margin.
