Hi Cici!

This really is a puzzle! After you got a different latitude and longitude, I tried and got a third set of coordinates! And then a fourth and a fifth!

I wasn’t seeing “Orchard Rd.”, I was seeing “Indn Rte 103”. I tried that, and while Google Maps still overwrote my inputted lat/long, it came really close to the actual location — the turnoff to the church location from Indn Rte 103.  That may be as close as we are going to get. :-/

I’ve asked the client if this will work.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Cici!

Here is the plugin environment: http://easycaptures.com/0553531655

The location I’m having trouble with is: Vah-ki Presbyterian Church. See above for the link to this location on Google maps.  Part of the issue is that the address for the church shows “Bapchule, AZ 85221”, but the location of the church is actually out in a very rural area, and the church does not actually have a street address. When I click on the location on Google Earth, it gives me the address of a home about a quarter mile south on the main street.

The “address” listed in SLP is the nearest intersection (Vah-Ki Rd & Casa Blanca Rd., Bapchule, AZ, 85221), but this generates directions in SLP to Vah-Ki Middle School, over in the actual town of <span style=”line-height: 1.5;”>Bapchule.</span>

Since you indicated that there might be an issue with importing the long/long, I created a brand-new entry for this location. I refrained from putting in a city/state, and only put in the latitude/longitude. SLP would not let me create this location, or gave its location as incorrect.

Then I tried adding just the state. Same result.

Whenever I try to use the latitude and longitude from the Google maps link above (33.1206385,-111.9082153 – these are the correct coordinates!), SLP overrides these inputted coordinates to supply something else.

I have checked for conflicts with other plugins.

@ Denise – If you enter a lat/long on an edit page it will use those values and not auto-calculate the lat/long based on the address.  That only happens if you change the address in some way between edits.

That is not the behavior I’m seeing.  I have the address set as the crossroads nearest and save. Then when I enter the exact lat/long, the saved lat/long are still the crossroads.

Is there some setting that I’m missing to make the lat/long take priority?
