ParticipantHas there ever been the method to get multiple pins to show up on a google map with wpgridbuilder facet after you import multiple locations by chance?
I've imported and nothing shows up until after you go into the location and then update it. It's like it doesn't register until after you save.
I think it might have something to do with Long/Lat.
With ACF you have the option to map and import the Long/Lat and then re-index with gridbuilder which allows for whatever the number of locations are and they populate without needing to open/save each imported location.

ModeratorHello there,
If you want to display multiple pins on a map, please follow the article below https://metabox.io/display-all-listings-on-a-map/?swcfpc=1
If you want to make the map field works with the Map Facet addon of WP Grid Builder, you will need to remove the third value (zoom) of the map field value. Please refer to this topic https://support.metabox.io/topic/how-to-remove-zoom-level-from-location-output/?swcfpc=1
and documentation https://docs.metabox.io/fields/map/#dataMarch 28, 2023 at 9:24 AM #41234ParticipantHi Peter, thanks for the reply.
I've taken a look at this post before I sent in my request above https://metabox.io/display-all-listings-on-a-map/?swcfpc=1. It seems this is for Open Maps and not Google Maps, am I missing something?
I can also get multiple pins to show up on the map but only after I open an imported location and hit save/update so that is where the problem is. If I import 1000 locations, I don't want to have to open each one and hit save/update just to have them show up on the map. So that's where the problem lies, they don't show up automatically after import and/or reindexing from WPgridbuilder.
Do any of the suggestions you mentioned have a remedy for that issue? Reading through them doesn't seem like it will fix the issue I'm having.
Thanks again, talk soon

March 28, 2023 at 5:36 PM #41241ModeratorHello,
Thank you for your details. In general, I think the issue is not on the side of Meta Box. What Meta Box supports here is a custom post type and custom fields to display on the frontend. I'm not sure what option or feature you are using on your local site to filter the post (location) automatically based on moving the map. I suggest you can contact WP Gridbuilder to ask for help with this issue.
You can also update the locations in bulk by going to admin area > Location > Bulk select posts > Edit > Just click on Update, see this screenshot https://monosnap.com/file/dzKzxaT4aOBA4GEDBcbJjH12pP6MNE
March 29, 2023 at 1:57 AM #41251ParticipantHi Peter, noted, I'll check with them as well.
I also tried the bulk update as you suggested before as well—no luck there either.
Much appreciated!
