Locations sometimes get saved without coordinates

We’ve used Events Manager for soon two years and really like it. Sometimes, however, locations get saved into database without Google Maps coordinates.

We have a map that shows the upcoming events. When there’s an event in a location that doesn’t have coordinates saved, the whole map becomes unusable.

We suspect that the issue is that on a rare occasion the call to Maps API to get the coordinates for an address fails. The solution might be as simple as to retry once upon failing. Alternatively, if the coordination retrieval has failed in the front-end (e.g. due to restrictions on the user’s environment), the API call for coordinates could be done at backend the time of saving the location.
