    HI

    great plugin!

    Some of the locations I want to use for my posts are not on a road. When I manually enter lat/ long details and press “verify”, the location seems to be reset to the nearest street address. Is there a way to prevent this happening and retain the entered lat\long details.

    Any help appreciated

    Hi,

    Yes, that’s possible. Google by default corrects the point’s location to a known place, so you should follow the steps below:

    1. Enter the address and press the verify button (Google will change the address entered, and will load the latitude and longitude corresponding to the new location)

    2. Drag and drop the pointer in the correct location, the latitude and longitude are modified in the process.

    3. Write again the correct address, but this time DO NOT PRESS the verify button, you only need save the page’s data.

    That’s all.
    Best regards.
