Hi,

I have discovered two issues when using the geo filter in the filter module.

The value in the autopopulate field is often empty/forgotten after performing a search. This is quite annoying when you change the distance multiple times for the same location.
After performing a location search, the field collapses in the module, whereas all other field remain open after a search.

Replace input box for distance with dropdown

Not really an issue but something I haven't able to solve yet.

I am trying to replace the distance input box with a dropdown select box with a fixed set of distances.

<select name="filters[<?php echo $this->key;?>][radius]"  id="filters<?php echo $this->key;?>radius" onchange="setCircleRadius<?php echo $this->id  ?>()"  >
    <option value="">Distance</option>
    <option value="5">+ 5 km</option>
    <option value="10">+ 10 km</option>
    <option value="20">+ 20 km</option>
    <option value="50">+ 50 km</option>
    <option value="100">+ 100 km</option>
</select>

It won't however remember the last selected option. Suggestions, anyone?

What autopopulate field?

Does it collapse all fields where filter is applied?

Ah thanks, Sergey.

I will try that!

Sergey What autopopulate field?

I mean autosuggest field.

The field where Google suggests locations when you start typing.

Sergey Does it collapse all fields where filter is applied?

No only the geo fields...all other fields stay open.

So you mean that google autosuggest field is empty after reboot? But it is not used for filters only to place location on the map. So we do not need it after we set the marker.

Give me the link I'll check. Sounds weird.

Never mind. I added something in the Javascript and now it remembers the last location even after a page refresh.

However there is another issue that needs to be solved:

If you change the radius/distance two times of one location, the location resets to the default location, hence producing wrong results.

Enter a location in the autosuggest field + Apply
Set a distance + Apply
Set a new distance + Apply

Replace input box for distance with dropdown
