SWG Location Aware is a WordPress plugin that I created to dynamically serve content based on a user’s geographic location. I am using a third party service to render the IP address or location within the plugin. The four components I have for my plugin that allows it to dynamically change in the front end of a WordPress theme are widgets, pages and comments. These will give the reader different content based on the locations set in the administrative menu of the plugin. One limitation of this plugin is the accuracy of the smaller areas such as cities and zip codes. The third party service I am using is not able to render these locations accurately based on the information available from the visitor’s IP address. I am constantly working to improve and make additions to this plugin.

This plugin works with both BuddyPress and the BuddyBoss Platform. It creates an xProfile Location field type that will use the Google Places API to populate and validate address fields on member profiles.
The result will be uniform and searchable addresses with a single input field.
In BuddyPress, you can create multiple Location fields via wp-admin > Users > Profile Fields > Add New Field
In BuddyBoss Platform, you can create multiple Location fields via wp-admin > BuddyBoss > Profiles > Profile Fields > Add New Field
The xprofile field for each member will be populated as a searchable string.
A latitude / longitude ‘geocode’ will be saved as a separate field, if that option was selected when the field was created.
You can then use the geocode in your preferred Member Map solution.
