Hi @devinwalker
You say that you are including the location field within your theme. Have you tried using it as a WP plugin? Does it work in this state?
Looking at the README it seems like there are incorrect instructions to use the add-on within your theme.
In your functions.php file, just include the add-on like so:
include_once('acf-location/acf-location.php');
Does that fix the issue?
