 * How do I make the Location address (#_LOCATIONADDRESS) on my post as a “link”,
   to show it’s location on Google Maps?

 * are you trying to link out to maps.google.com?
 * you’d generate a normal html link using this sort of thing:
 * [https://maps.google.com/?q=#_LOCATIONADDRESS](https://maps.google.com/?q=#_LOCATIONADDRESS)

 * Marcus, yes, that is what I would like to do. However, I must be using the wrong
   tags around the code as it is not working.
 * Under Events>Settings>Formatting>Single Event Page>
    Default single event format:
   I have entered the following:
 * <a href=https://maps.google.com/?q=
    #_LOCATIONADDRESS #_LOCATIONTOWN #_LOCATIONSTATE#
   _LOCATIONPOSTCODE
 * What’s happening, is that on the Event page, only the Town, State, and Zip are
   displaying, and they are displaying as a link. However, it just takes you to 
   a general Google Map.
 * The Address (#_LOCATIONADDRESS) is not displaying at all.
 * I am not that familiar with HTML tags, so please excuse.
 * Thanks.

 * I think you need to try something like this:
 *     ```
       <a href=https://maps.google.com/?q=#_LOCATIONADDRESS">
       #_LOCATIONADDRESS
       #_LOCATIONTOWN
       #_LOCATIONSTATE
       #_LOCATIONPOSTCODE</a>
       ```

 * Thanks for the suggestion!
 * Well, that solved the “Address” problem from not displaying. Now everything is
   showing and it is linking to Google Maps. However, the link is only linking to
   the “numbers”, not the full address.
 * For example: The address of the event is
    355 Main St Boston, MA
 * The link is only picking up the “355” and nothing else (even though the entire
   address is showing as a link), so Google doesn’t know what to display.

 * Ok, figured it out. Here’s the full code:
 *     ```
       <a
       href="https://maps.google.com?q=#_LOCATIONADDRESS+#_LOCATIONTOWN
       +#_LOCATIONSTATE+#_LOCATIONPOSTCODE">
   
       #_LOCATIONADDRESS
       #_LOCATIONTOWN
       #_LOCATIONSTATE
       #_LOCATIONPOSTCODE
       </a>
       ```
   
 * Works great!
