Maps

Hey,

Anyone have experience with no code and maps?

I am looking for a way to type in an address and return a list of predetermined locations based on address.

Example: I have a website that shows you college campus profiles. I type in my address and the result is the closest college campuses, sorted by distance to my inputted address.

Thanks,

    @stevesilvasy yep - in bubble you can create a data type of "College" with an attribute of "location" that's of type "geographic address".

    You can then display on a map the pins of locations of Colleges. You can have the map centered on an address that users add to an input field. You can then have a repeating group (ie list) of Colleges sorted by distance from the address.

    Best of luck!

      Hey Eric. Running into a small problem. When I display the pins of data type "college", what am I putting for data source?

        the college should have a field "location", which should be of type "geographic address". here's a little GIF showing how I set it up on another app in case the Bubble Ui is confusing https://cl.ly/cba15b99aef6
