Plugin Description
This is an add-on for the Advanced Custom Fields
WordPress plugin and will not provide any functionality to WordPress unless Advanced Custom Fields is installed
and activated.
The Location field provides:
- a search field where you can type in some coordinates or an address and hit
Enter.
- a Google map which you can click at the desired location.
In both cases, Google will find the location and return the coordinates and the complete address, if you want it complete. A marker will be added at the desired location.
