Restrict Autocomplete

[misiman]

I have found some instructions on how to limit Google Autocomplete results to just cities which is what I need to achieve:

How/Where do I incorporate this into GeoMyWP?

Thanks

HI,
with the current version of GEo my WP it is only possible by editing a core file. A better solution using A hook will be available in GEO my WP 3.0.

If you are comfortable with editing a core file I can tell you which file to edit.

Hi,

I am very interested in getting this working – when is GeoMyWP v3.0 being released?

[Eyal Fitoussi]

I don’t have a release data for GEO my WP 3.0 yet. I would like to release the first beta by the end of next month, but I cannot promise since GEO my WP 3.0 is a major update and is mostly rewritten.

Ok,

I am happy to help test the beta version.

In the meantime, could you let me know where/what to edit in the core file.

Thanks

Sure,

1) Open the file:
geo-my-wp/assests/js/googleAddressAutocomplete.js

2) Line 13 which should be

var options = {};

1	var options = {};

is the line you need to modify based on the tutorial you posted above.
For example:

var options = { language: 'en-GB', types: ['(cities)'], componentRestrictions: { country: "uk" } }

1 2 3 4 5

var options = {   language: 'en-GB',   types: ['(cities)'],   componentRestrictions: { country: "uk" } }

3) Save the file and test it.

I will definitely need help testing the beta of GEO my WP 3.0. Once it is ready I will email subscribers and write a blog post about it. If you haven’t done so already you can subscribe for email on the home page of GEO my WP at the bottom.

Thanks,

An update,

Since GEO my WP 3.x is now available you can use the script below to limit the address autocomplete results without modifying the core files. Just add the script to the functions.php file of your child theme.

function gmw_custom_modify_address_autocomplete_options() { ?> <script type="text/javascript"> jQuery( document ).ready( function() { GMW.add_filter( 'gmw_address_autocomplete_options', function( options, field_id, input_field, GMW ) { // you can replace '(cities)' with other types. options.types = [ '(cities)' ]; return options; }, 20, 4 ); }); </script> <?php } add_action( 'wp_footer', 'gmw_custom_modify_address_autocomplete_options' );

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19

function gmw_custom_modify_address_autocomplete_options() { ?> <script type="text/javascript">   jQuery( document ).ready( function() { GMW.add_filter( 'gmw_address_autocomplete_options', function( options, field_id, input_field, GMW ) { // you can replace '(cities)' with other types. options.types = [ '(cities)' ];   return options; }, 20, 4 ); });   </script> <?php } add_action( 'wp_footer', 'gmw_custom_modify_address_autocomplete_options' );

I hope this helps.
