Hi Dave,
I am not techie savvy but I do remember this question last fall and researching it with one of the forum posters. He was using it with the Pages add-on and some HTML coding. The WP codex changed last summer so customers had to change their page templates. I do not know exactly how you envision using the plugin.
The base Plugin does not allow modification of the queries, unless you hack the javascript (mot advisable) the add-on packs would. I am sorry I cannot answer your question. Perhaps someone in the forum community can help. I can pose the question to the developer when he returns, he is currently on vacation.
No that isn’t what it is saying, Not what I intended to pass along,
The plugin and add-ons will still work fine, I am wondering if it might be an explanation as to why certain versions of Chrome might not ask you for your location even if you have the location sensor enabled. In the ProPAck documentation that the developer wrote years ago, when Location sensor was first introduced, it was explained that some Browsers configuration might not allow location sensor or might not be accurate.
It is just my theory that Chromes latest update has added the twist. Location sensor works even using Chrome on some customer sites and yet not others. My theory is that those sites with https: cert . Again, as Piani mentioned it works using all the other browsers.
I wont know if my theory is correct until I can discuss with the developer, Lance . It is ONLY Chrome version 50 that introduced the secure vs unsecure site and location sensor quandry.
The argument towards having every site go to https because of security threats has been discussed in the worldwide programmer, developer, IT community for a while now. It isn’t just this particular subject.
Hi Guys,
I am not sure if the info I am sharing below bears any weight as far as the location sensor and Chrome issue. I am going to discuss more with Lance when he gets back. I have been watching this development out of curiosity (I am not a programmer)
i.e. Google , Chrome browser, has been sending warnings out for months and months about “Synchronous XMLHttpRequest on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental effects to the end user’s experience. For more help, check https://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/.”
I have read in the Developers support forums and apparently they are getting serious and it was reported as a bug back in Nov 2015 in the Chrome project. I came across this issue report about geolocation and not sending if not secure origin. (http as opposed to https) I see that the tacos website is http,,, @ Piani. (I do not recall your client site , is it https or http?)
Most recently (apparently Feb when they went to chrome 50) they changed the geolocation if queried over an “insecure” site instead of position unavailable if over http , they changed it to be consistent to be “permission denied”. Since this effecting some customers and not others, I think that it may be the case .
Update geolocation over HTTP error to use PERMISSION_DENIED When geolocation is used over HTTP, we had been using POSITION_UNAVAILABLE, but it was pointed out that using geolocation over a file:// URL uses PERMISSION_DENIED instead. To be consistent, this updates the HTTP failure to use PERMISSION_DENIED. BUG=561641 Review URL: https://codereview.chromium.org/1642903005
Hi Meg,
Is your theme responsive ? Or do you mean that it wont appear when using a specific browser or operating system … like iOS. Some poep,e have been reporting issues with Chrome. I have seen a lot of info under the Google Developers forum about the new Chrome upgrade 50 which is going to block or render some sites to not work properly depending on whether it is http or https. Google has been issuing these warnings for quite a while now, that “your not using https: and site deprecated” warning. I am not sure if that is effecting your site, just of note for some people. I am going to discuss further with the develoepr when he returns from vacation.
Other sites use Google Analytics with Store Locator Plus,
I hope this sheds some light on how Location sensor works. It depends on browsers, how people have their settings etc.
Just a heads up: . Your theme appears to be using jquery 1.11. WP 4.5 requires at least 1.12. See the WP info blog and the SLP Info Blog about the issues that can occur, especially when using SLP or Google Maps API.
jquery.js?ver=1.11.3:5 XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://new.tacosandtequilatnt.com/wp-content/plugins/store-locator-le/images/icons/bulb_red.png. No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource. Origin ‘http://tacosandtequilatnt.com’ is therefore not allowed access.send @ jquery.js?ver=1.11.3:5
scripts.js?ver=5.0.7:111 element query css parsed
Hi,
Sorry to hear you are having trouble. As far as your theme and breaking SLP, if you want to use that theme, contact the them author and ask them if they are using Jquery 1.12 as dictated by WP 4.5. There are a lot of plugins and themes that were written poorly and forcing a version of jquery or not using the WP best practices. See the BLOG bout this and also the WP master list that sites these issues.
As far as hiding the map. SLP has a hide the map function built into the Experience Add-on . It was part of Enhanced Map (legacy) as well.
You should be using an updated version of SLP . Are you not updating SLP and WP for a reason?
Store Locator Plus is on version 4.5.03, you should be using at least 4.4.37. There could have been a bug fix since you last updated, where the labels weren’t saving. refer to the SLP Change Log for further info.
When you changed the message did you add html in its place via css? , it appears you added an html url link in that box. No results found, is a label. TAKE OUT THE HREF and the backslash from the text in that box and see if that fixes it , this is how it is coming back when I checked yourstore locator (you can see that you are redirecting to another website.
// no_results_found is being populated by store locator plugin in slp.js
jQuery( document ).ready(function($) {
$(“#map_sidebar”).find(“.no_results_found”).replaceWith(‘<div class=”no_results_found”><p>Sorry, it looks like there aren\’t any resellers close to you, but you can find a complete range of Chameleon Glass at <a href=”http://www.brotherswithglass.com” target=”_blank”>brotherswithglass.com</a>.</p></div>’);
Inspect your site using any browser developer tools (we have a tutorial video on that under Troubleshooting if you need more info) , you may want to use Firebug to debug (see your console)
I did a quick inspect using Chrome developer tools and you have 7 error messages that you need to fix. . Check your directory path for your icons
jquery.js?ver=1.11.3:5 Mixed Content: The page at ‘https://chameleonglass.com/find-store/?addressInput=’ was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure XMLHttpRequest endpoint ‘http://chameleonglass.com/wp-content/uploads/saved-icons/blue_flame_50.png’. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.send @ jquery.js?ver=1.11.3:5
?addressInput=:1 Mixed Content: The page at ‘https://chameleonglass.com/find-store/?addressInput=’ was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure image ‘http://chameleonglass.com/new/wp-content/plugins/store-locator-le/images/icons/bulb_azure.png’. This content should also be served over HTTPS.
http://chameleonglass.com/new/wp-content/plugins/store-locator-le/images/icons/bulb_azure.png Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
Debug your plugin.
The first error may be because that Plugin or theme is not using Current WP compatibility jquery and that will create MAP ISSUES. We posted a blog about that here and here is additional info on WP about 4.5 issues, Check PhP versions, they should be updated per WP best practices see info on what you can do to request that from your host.
You have FAILURES,, using any Inspect tools from your browsers (See the Debug video or Docs in Troubleshooting)
the first one noted here is a result of incorrect html reference with lightbox . Is this part of your theme? Is it using an outdated jquery version that may not have shown errors before , but now will with latest WP 4.5 updates . See that WP link above for more info .jquery.colorbox.js:13 Uncaught ReferenceError: lightbox_html is not defined
**This next error mentions multiple Google MAP APIS, you have more than one plugin loading and trying to connect to Google Maps and this is a conflict with SLP.
js?language=pl&ver=4.5.03:92 You have included the Google Maps API multiple times on this page. This may cause unexpected errors.
Hi James,
It is not a bug.
Happened to come up in today’s meeting with Lance:
Actually Lance coded the base plugin so the basic slplus shortcode , if someone puts in ALL caps redirects (renders behind the scenes as lower case)_ so that works with either capital letters or lower case letters, but shortcodes with attributes need to be in lower case.
Once upon a time , people who are not familiar with the WP shortcodes codex and rules were writing in to say SLPLUS is broken because they used all caps . All shortcodes in WP are lower case.
Hi Dave,
That can work too if you have someone who can work with javascript that is very useful.
I will close the post now. If you have a chance to provide a super rating I would really appreciate it. Good luck!
Steve,
My Pleasure.

Donald,
Happy to hear that.
If you like Store Locator Plus please leave a ★★★★★ rating onWordPress.org. A huge thank you from Lance and his fellow code geeks!
🙂
if you want to restrict to city country, there is a new Widgets option to do that contained in the Experience Add-ON . It is not going to limit to one country unless you add shortcodes , or bind the search results , as in use one of the Widgets with a dropdown menu, (such as country, or city) and/or have the selector in discrete search mode and not to use the radius…you need to bind it somehow because the theory is you want a radius (just like Google location sensor works)
Check out the devleopers YouTube video, it might show you better how to use these settings.
OHHH
ok….
Order results by is default closest to farthest away. You want to modify to only show within a certain country? How are you using the discrete search? See how to use the discrete search functions in your case by country.
And you do not want the radius behavior as “always use” under your search settings.
My answer confused me…so let me try again:
Step 1) Check the box At startup “show locations”
Step 2) If you want 25 then put 25 in the box which you already have in results, otherwise you can change it to less or more…
That setting under Results (max to show) is in conjunction with “show locations at startup”.
Now refresh and check your front end, is it now showing a max of 25?
Check “show locations at startup”, those two settings go hand and hand. If you do have show locations at startup set then the other number doesn’t matter.
Results Panel settings
Is it coming back with more results then you want after the search or less?
Hi Dave,
Did it all work out for you?

Hi Donald,
I cannot see what your CSV file format looks like with a screenshot. Here is the documentation about the Datafields and formats.
Which versions are you running of WP, SLP, ProPAck etc?
Please provide your Plugin Environment (see Posting guidelines
Ok, I guess we were typing at same time. I wasnt sure if you meant Loading via PROPACK or the front end…please update Enhanced search as well,
1) Enhanced Search 4.3 will not work with SLP 4.5 ,xx nor ProPack 4.5,. you need to update to at least 4.4. or purchase the Experience add-on,,(Posting guidelines: check versions )
2) Do you mean you cant load 276 locations or that they are in Locations panel but you cant see them on the front end?
3) If the latter, what do you have set for your radius, do you have show locations at start, what is your search criteria set at? Center map settings? See those settings in the documentation.
WP 4.5.2 uses jquery 1.12, as does SLP, but some themes and plugins do not use the correct jquery and that can cause issues with your Maploading etc.
what is your site url?
Hi Rafal
Latest update to WP, SLP, ? Your theme?
Could you provide your Plugin Environment (see Posting Guidelines)? Need to know what versions, of SLP and add-ons and your WP versions, etc. and your site url. ( sometimes we can find the issue using Troubleshooting tools, browser tools)
Hi Rob,
You can change that No Results found or No locations found Label with the Experience add-on or the Legacy Add-on Enhanced results (legacy which works as is , will not be upgraded in the future, will be phased out)
Hi ,
If I understand your question,( not sure I do, so let me know if I get this wrong) . You want to create individual store pages with their own permalink and have categories filtered within those store pages:
As far as hours etc that are added/included in that field under the Locations tab ( where you would create store pages as well) are part of the Default Pages template pulls from your store id info that is in the locations database. (See the Pages Documentation)
The new Power add-on that is in pre-release will allow you to have different categories that work within the Pages with shortcodes. You can review the new documentation about that and see if that is what you re looking for..as mentioned that is in pre release and that feature will be available with the production release later this month.
Currently Tagalong can be used to create Categories and you can assign to locations, , search by category, have two separate pages in WP that have a short code “only_with_ category = “xxx”
You might want to review the new docs site as well as the Pages and Taglong Product descriptions. Power is in pre-release and if you purchase it an be tested on your dev site, it is never advised to use Pre releases on live production sites .
