It’s not feasible to input every city in the world into the Location field

[plantsgrowhere]

Hi there, I hope you're having a nice day.

I am creating a job board for the whole world in one niche industry. It's not practical to manually type every city in the whole world, nor is it practical to expect my employers and candidates to scroll through every single city until they find theirs.

Is it possible to input some code that has this pre-existing, so that people can simply type whatever city they are in to the search bar?

Thank you,

Daniel Fuller

Hi

I use the By Location custom field which is connected to Google Maps API instead which works much better

Hope this helps

Hi Daniel.

Yes, you can follow the tip as bmwebdesign suggest. You can use the field input with the map suggested.

Can I please ask one more question. How do I implement this?

When I search for jobs, there is a drop-down menu for location. I just want people to type their location, and then for the appropriate locations to pop up while typing. Just like when you do a Google search, or a search on Indeed.

Your screen shot was incredibly helpful, thank you. The problem is that it isn't auto-suggesting based on the first few letters. For example, when I want to search in Brisbane, I want to type "Bris" and then for Brisbane to be suggested.
