Hi, I setup a custom search with some filters, a search button and "Distance" Map filter.

When I set any value on the other filters and I click on the search button, I get a "required filed" message on the Distance filter and the search doesn't work.

I attach a screenshot to show you the message.

How can I deactivate the "required filed" message?

thanks

Hi there,

Thank you for contacting us and I'll be happy to assist.

Your observation is correct and by default, the distance filter field is set as a required field.

To make it an optional field, you can include the following script in your view's "JS editor" tab:

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

I hope this helps.

regards,
Waqar

Hi there,

Just wanted to update that future release of Toolset Maps plugin ( ver: 1.7.2 ) will include a built-in option to make the distance filter field either optional or required.

Thank you for bringing this forward.
