Hello,
I was wondering, is it possible for the Google Maps custom field to set a default marker?
For example, I have a custom post type for campings. Someone can create his own post and fill in the fields, this is not a problem. But it should also be possible to fetch some data from a webserver, and when filling in the post, I can’t find out how to set a marker on the Google Map.
I hope I’ve made myself clear enough, if there are any questions please let me know. Thanks.
Hi @mikehermans
So when the visitor comes to the page with the acf_form()
you run some custom AJAX which retrieves an address from a webserver?
Hello @jonathan
The problem is solved. I was working in someone else’s project, and it turned out that the field had a slightly different naming convention (_ instead of – in it’s name).
After that, I could update the post meta and the marker is now placed when the user gets on the page.
Thanks for your help.
Alright great to hear!
best of luck in your project.
