 * Hello,
 * Quick question will this plugin allow the admin to insert entries (uploaded through
   a CSV File) into a database and from my WordPress website allow visitors to search
   these entries specifically, to retrieve information all from my website?
 * Here is specifically what I want to do:
    1) Create a database of Tennis Clubs
   with entries for owners, players, locations, ratings etc. across the United States.
   2) Allow a visitor to come to my website put in their zip code and retrieve a
   list of these Tennis Clubs close to them.
 * Thanks.

 * VC,
 * Possible, but you’ll have to craft your own search function. The plugin can really
   only do string matching–so it can find a match for a zip code, but wouldn’t be
   able to find anything in other nearby zip codes which is a whole different thing
   entirely.
