Displaying map with lat/lng on turbocsv import

[webseeker]

Hi Chris,

sorry I’m a bit confused about how to do this.

In a post, I made two custom fields one for lat one for long.  (point_lat / point_lng)

When I put lat long numbers in the relevant boxes and update post to test this, is mappress supposed to pick them up?

In mappress there is only the option to map “address” field and not seperate lat / long numbers.

If lat long is entered in csv in this format 52.123123, 1.123123 then it will be considered x2 values. So this is where I’m getting confused.

Many thanks for your help

Kind regards

Sorted.

Create custom field for lat long value – call it whatever.

Tell Mappress this is the value you are using.

In excel create one column of lat longs like this: 52.123123\,1.123123 – with the backslash before comma.

In turbocsv just map your latlong value to latlong value and off you go.

LOL, now I’m getting this error

Google cannot geocode address: 50.123123,0.123123, status: OVER_QUERY_LIMIT

I thought entering the lat long prevents geocoding queries? I still doing something wrong here.
