Include address field in Types, not in Maps

This is not going to happen. What you should do it add a single line custom field and save address value to this field.

Currently it seems that the address field itself is only included in Toolset maps.

I would propose to make it part of Toolset Types, thereby opening the possibility to use the address field without displaying Google Maps. Maybe some smart developer (or people from Toolset) can then write an integration to OSM or another maps platform.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Yes - you are right, the Address field is part of Toolset maps plugin which is dedicated field belongs to store google address.

Well - if you just want to store the address - what if you just create a text field and store your address value using Types single line field.

You are right, this is possible. I have solved it this way. But when (in a future) I would like to integrate Open Street Map or another map provider, it would be very convenient if the address field itself would be part of Types and only the possibility to display maps, based on an address would be part op Toolset Maps.

Please put that on the list of feature requests.

But solved for now.

Thank you!
