    Hi, I’m looking to buy the ‘Nearby Posts’ extension to this plugin to list a number of nearby posts automatically.

    However, I would like to list posts near to the ‘current post’ – not my own current location.

    Is this possible?

    If you could pass in the current post’s Lat and Long into the Nearby Post’s shortcode this would be perfect.

    Hi,
    1) Your request is already on the todo list of the add-on and will most likely be ready in the next release of the add-on.

    2) If you can’t wait for the next release and you know your way around PHP you should be able to modify the add-on to do so. You will need to change the lat/long variable so instead of pulling the coords of the user’s current location it will pull the coords of the post being displayed.

    Hi Eyal, Thanks for the reply. I don’t know PHP and wouldn’t know where to begin coding this myself. Do you know when the next update to include this feature will be available?

    If it is going to be some time (I have a deadline of Feb 28th 2015 for a site) could you let me know how to code this myself in a function, rather than modifying the plugin itself?

    I need to return a list of posts of ‘post type’ X within Y miles of the current post in the WP Loop, then list these onto the page somehow.

    I don’t know when the next version will be available. I am out of the country with limited development time. I will be back in town next week and will get back to normal development time.
    I am planing to release the next version before your deadline; Hopefully within 2 to 3 weeks from now. If you see that it is not ready by the 15th of next month remind me and I will try to provide you with a temporary fix ( but you will need to modify the core plugin ) .

    Hi Eyal,

    I’ve just bought the ‘Nearby Posts’ extension from your website. I’m having trouble locating the settings page and getting this up and running – even without modifying this to do what I need.

    I need the plugin to list nearby posts, but also if possible to filter them not only by Post Type, but also by a Taxonomy Value too.

    I need the Nearby Posts to be listed outside of the WordPress Loop too if this is possible as well.

    I am marking this topic as resolved. I have replied with a possible solution in GEO my WP official forum.
