I made here a shortcode to show the “city, country” from the coordinates

You have to change the get_field(‘adresse’, $id) to your ACF field name.
Here you need to write also the post id or you can just delete the beginning.
I m not sure if you need a google api key … i tried it both with and without and it works…
You can put that code in the functions.php of your theme

It could be that you have to change on your server in the php.ini ( allow_url_fopen=0 ….. to …. allow_url_fopen=1 )… when you get an error like this “http:// wrapper is disabled in the server configuration by allow_url_fopen=0” …

I m not sure… if this code is slowing a website also down. hm?

// [location id=""]
function location_shortcode( $atts ) {

	extract( shortcode_atts(
		array(
			'id' => '',
			), $atts )
	);

	if ( isset( $id ) && get_field('adresse', $id) ) {

	$google_map = get_field('adresse', $id);

$url = 'https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng='.$google_map['lat'].','.$google_map['lng'].'&sensor=true';
$data = @file_get_contents($url);
$jsondata = json_decode($data,true);
if(is_array($jsondata) && $jsondata['status'] == "OK")
{

// city
foreach ($jsondata["results"] as $result) {
    foreach ($result["address_components"] as $address) {
        if (in_array("locality", $address["types"])) {
            $city = $address["long_name"];
        }
    }
}
// country
foreach ($jsondata["results"] as $result) {
    foreach ($result["address_components"] as $address) {
        if (in_array("country", $address["types"])) {
            $country = $address["long_name"];
        }
    }
}

}
$seperator = ', ';

$location = $city . $seperator . $country;

return $location;

}
}
add_shortcode( 'location', 'location_shortcode' );
