Location finder

Options

How many results to show	Number of results and pins to return. Default is 100
Distance unit of measurement	Which unit to use to calculating distance from the visitor. Options are "miles" or "km"
Disable Geolocation prompt	Don't prompt the visitor for their location in the browser, requiring them to enter a search manually
Geocoder components	Pass a series of valid geocoder components to pass on geocoder requests to influence results. Must match a specific format from google. Example: country:US|administrative_area:FL
Geocode Region Hint	For non-US finders, you can give the finder a hint of the visitor geography so that Google returns more relevant results
Search input type	Custom search field types. - 5 digit US zip code: only US zip codes (numbers only)
Distance threshold of results	How far the bounds of the search should show locations. Default is 4000 units (miles or km)
Redirect one result	If a single location is found and it has a location URL, it will automatically redirect the visitor in the browser
Default location (Latitude)	This location is used for the initial map center point and is also used if "Search on load" is enabled. Example: 47.258728
Default location (Longitude)	This location is used for the initial map center point and is also used if "Search on load" is enabled. Example -122.465973
Search on load	Automatically search locations when the location finder loads (uses the "Default location" point)
Initial search distance threshold	Only apply to the initial loading of locations, this option overrides the normal "Distance threshold of results" to show a wider or shorter distance of locations. Good to use if you want to show "All locations" on initial load, but less (only the closest) locations when someone is entering a search.
Show infowindow on search	This will automatically expand the infowindow pin for the first result after a search is entered

Geolocation

Browser-based geolocation requires that the page is served under https (secure).

Currently preview URLs are not served under HTTPS, so a manual search is required for testing on the preview.

URL parameters

Our location finder supports passing URL parameters the location finder page to pre-populate location search queries, filters and other parameters.

https://www.yourdomain.com/location-finder/?
    near_location=98121&
    services__in=atm,branch-location

Parameter
near_location	Location search (zip code, address, city/state)
services__in	Comma separated list of services tags if your location finder is configured for filtering the results

Form example

Here is an example of creating a simple form to link to the Location Finder that takes a visitor search location and passes that to the finder.

<form action="https://www.yourdomain.com/location-finder/" method="get">
  <input type="text" name="near_location" placeholder="Enter your location">
  <button type="submit">Search</button>
</form>

The form code above can be updated as desired. The only required/important elements are:

• Action set to the URL of your location finder - action="https://www.yourdomain.com/location-finder/"

• Form should use GET - method="get"

• <input> with name of near_location
