I have a page that is used to filter events based on location. You can also choose to filter by school or event type.

What I would like to accomplish is to be able to choose event type, or school and submit without having to filter by distance. Right now when I try that it tells me that the "Enter a Location" filed needs to be filled in.

I have tried the AJAX method of updating if anything is selected but it still makes me enter a location and hit Submit.

Also, Is it possible to have something show up regardless of where the location is?

For example. I would like webinars to show up no matter what location is picked since they are not location based.

Thanks, in advance, for your time.

Hello,

There is a HTML attribute "required" in the location field of search form, you can use custom JS codes to remove it, for example, edit your view, and try these:
1) Disable AJAX method you mentioned above
2) in "Search and Pagination", click "JS Editor", add below JS codes:

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $('input.js-toolset-maps-distance-center').removeAttr('required');
})
