   your code
 * Thanks a million for the plugin can’t wait to have the first map live on the

 * [@geylang666](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geylang666/) If you want the
   GMWP location to update after saving a post whose location was updated using 
   the ACF map component in the admin, try this:
 *     ```
       function update_GMWP_location( $post_id ) {
           // Get newly saved values.
           $values = get_fields( $post_id );
   
           // Check the new value of a specific field.
           // replace 'location'  with your 'custom_field'
           $location = get_field('location', $post_id);
           if( $location ) {
               // make sure post ID exists.
       	if ( ! $post_id ) {
       		return;
           }
       	// verify updater function.
       	if ( function_exists( 'gmw_update_post_location' ) ) {
       		$coordinates = array(
       			"lat" => (float)$location["lat"],
       			"lng" => (float)$location["lng"]
       		);
       		gmw_update_post_location( $post_id, $coordinates );
       	}
           }
       }
   
       add_action('acf/save_post', 'update_GMWP_location');
       ```
   
 * It fails for me at the same point as updating from the front end, so will probably
   work for you. Based on: [https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-save_post/](https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-save_post/)

 * [@geylang666](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geylang666/) Glad it worked
   for you, still not working on my side.
 * You can edit location in admin screens by activating GMWP widget on the correct
   pages.
 * Admin side menu > Geo My WP > Settings > Post locator > Post Types
 * _Select the post types where you would like to enable geotagging. GEO my WP Location
   section will be added to the “Edit Post” page of the selected post types._

 * Hey [@ninjew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ninjew/) I followed your basic
   approach but using coordinates instead of address, and wrote the following:
 *     ```
       function gmw_update_location_via_wpuf($post_id) {
       	// make sure post ID exists.
       	if ( ! $post_id ) {
       		return;
           }
   
       	// verify updater function.
       	if ( function_exists( 'gmw_update_post_location' ) ) {
       		// change meta_field_name to the custom field of the address field.
       	    $locationMeta = get_post_meta( $post_id, 'location', true );
       		$coordinates = array(
       			"lat" => (float)$locationMeta["lat"],
       			"lng" => (float)$locationMeta["lng"]
       		);
       		//run geocoder function
       		gmw_update_post_location( $post_id, $coordinates );
       	}
       }
   
       //update data of new post
       add_action('wpuf_add_post_after_insert', 'gmw_update_location_via_wpuf', 10, 1 );
       //update data when post updated
       add_action('wpuf_edit_post_after_update', 'gmw_update_location_via_wpuf', 10, 1 );
       ```
   
 * Everything is firing fine, but the location doesn’t update in . I started debugging
   to follow why, and got as far as:
 * [21-Apr-2020 09:22:06 UTC] 1276
    [21-Apr-2020 09:22:06 UTC] GMW – Posting [21-

 * Before I start debugging in class-gmw-geocoder.php, any stupid mistakes I may
   be making in the encoding of the lat and lng? I’m a total newbie to PHP so probably
   missing something stupid.
 * BTW, regarding the hooks mentioned in your tutorial (thanks!):
    based on the 
   info at [https://wedevs.com/docs/wp-user-frontend-pro/developer-docs/actions/wpuf_edit_post_after_update/](https://wedevs.com/docs/wp-user-frontend-pro/developer-docs/actions/wpuf_edit_post_after_update/)
   I think wpuf_add_post_after_updated should be wpuf_edit_post_after_update

 * Hi Gey, I’ve run into the same issue. I’ve seen that under the Import/Export 
   tab of the GMWP settings, you can map post fields to GMWP LAT and LON fields 
   to import the data when desired, on-demand. I’d obviously prefer a direct way
   to connect these fields, but don’t see a way of doing that via plugin settings
   alone.
 * I’m also not sure how WPUF stores location information when a post is submitted
   from the front end. I see the following data in the AJAX submit calls:
    “location:
   Carrer del Llatzeret, 11, 08005 Barcelona, Spain || 41.4029902 || 2.2014224” –
   but that data doesn’t seem to be stored on the post, also I wouldn’t know how
   to extract LAT and LON values from the data. GWMP doesn’t recognise any location
   information on the post.
