Can I use this plugin for something else?

    Hi plugin developer/owner,

    I am wondering if I can use this plugin to pinpoint certain categories of users on a map located within certain distance of a current site visitor? Like showing to a visitor the location of a group of service providers within 20 miles radius for example.
    I just want to know before I start any project of customizing the plugin for a different purpose.
    Thank you.
    I would also appreciate if anyone has an idea about another map prone to be customized for such idea.

    You can restrict the returned results to for example category x like this.

    [wpsl category="the-category-slug"]

    If you then also set the default search radius to 20 on the settings page ( the default is the value between [] ), and enable the ‘Attempt to auto-locate the user’ option then it should work.

    Thank you for the feedback.
    Do I need the pro version or I will have to actually customize the plugin? Sorry for asking again, but I just wanna make sure what plugin to select.
