Location search doesn't work when page is reloaded

    Hi! First of all, I love your plugin. It has all the features I would wish for and more 🙂

    I’m having a bit of trouble with the geo search. It works great when the suggestions get loaded, but very often they don’t.

    The first time I load the page after clearing cache they work. I can tell because the “Near…” placeholder shows up in the input field. When I search, suggestions pop up automatically and the results are right.

    If I open an event and then hit back, the “Near” placeholder doesn’t show up and suggestions don’t load. When I hit search, results are not filtered by location.

    I’m guessing there is something that stops these lines from running:

    EM.geo_placeholder = ‘<?php echo esc_attr($args[‘geo_label’]); ?>’;
    jQuery(document).bind(’em_maps_loaded’, function(){ em_geo_search_init(); });

    but I can’t figure out what. Has anybody else run into this?

    hello,

    do you have sample link to your site with this issue for us to see and analyze?

    Unfortunately I am working locally.

    I narrowed the issue down tho. When I reload the page without clearing the cache, this line in geo.js doesn’t get triggered:

    jQuery(document).bind('em_maps_loaded', function(){ em_geo_search_init(); });

    I have confirmed that

    jQuery(document).triggerHandler('em_maps_loaded');

    in events-manager.js runs.

    After a lot of testing, I ended up replacing the problematic line with this, and it works:

    jQuery(window).load(function() {em_geo_search_init();});

    It’s probably not the cleanest workaround, because it doesn’t actually confirm that Google Maps loaded properly, but the location search works every time.

    sorry cannot seems to replicate this however when you say ‘then hit back’ did you mean the browser back button ?

    Yes, I meant the browser back button. It also happens with a simple reload that doesn’t clear the cache.
