Craft 5 - query with location

[abm-schuh]

Description

I try to query some entries by lat/lng
My Field handle is "addressCoordinates"

{% set haendler = craft.entries.section("haendler").addressCoordinates({
    location: { 
        lat: 52.3073549, 
        lng: 8.6699708 
    }, 
    radius: 50,
    unit: 'km'
}).orderBy('distance asc').all() %}

Output is:

SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'distance' in 'order clause'
The SQL being executed was: SELECT `elements`.`id`, `elements`.`canonicalId`, `elements`.`fieldLayoutId`, `elements`.`uid`, `elements`.`enabled`, `elements`.`archived`, `elements`.`dateLastMerged`, `elements`.`dateCreated`, `elements`.`dateUpdated`, `elements_sites`.`id` AS `siteSettingsId`, `elements_sites`.`siteId`, `elements_sites`.`title`, `elements_sites`.`slug`, `elements_sites`.`uri`, `elements_sites`.`content`, `elements_sites`.`enabled` AS `enabledForSite`, `entries`.`sectionId`, `entries`.`fieldId`, `entries`.`primaryOwnerId`, `entries`.`typeId`, `entries`.`postDate`, `entries`.`expiryDate`

I am having this issue as well. Is there any progress with that or any temporary solution anyone has come up with?

[stevendierick]

Same issue here. Any update on this?

[thom-moresoda]

any progress with this one? May not be any help, but I'm having a similar issue with the plugin on craft 5 where the query wont return any data. Only way I can get anything out of it is using crafts search syntax. Eg:

{% set retailers = craft.entries.section('retailers').mapAddress({
	location: "london",
	radius: 20, 
	unit: 'mi',
}).all %}

returns nothing, but

{% set retailers = craft.entries.section('retailers').mapAddress({
	location: "*london*",
	radius: 20, 
	unit: 'mi',
}).all %}

will return all entries with the word 'london' in it. Not particularly helpful in my instance, but may do the job if anyone is just looking to do a simple search by keyword on the map

[abm-schuh]

Any news on that topic? Still having the same problem

[thom-moresoda]

I've had no updates. Our client has agreed to keep the map with its reduced functionality for now & we'll likely move to using a different plugin. I can't see that ether are responding to any issues so I'm starting to think simplemap has been abandoned

The same issue here! A quick fix would be nice @Tam - can't upgrade to Craft 5 because my client site need the search by location feature.

Hello folks,

I contacted Ether Creative directly by e-mail and received the following reply:

Hi Jan,

It’s still actively mantained and we’re working on a fix which we hope to release soon.

All the best
Alex

So we have to wait a little bit. Thanks to Ether Creative for this excellent plugin 🙏🏼

[knufri]

Ether Creative please give us a feedback!

[remcoov]

See my latest findings. Any update Ether?

Also experiencing this since upgrading to Craft 5. Searching by location and distance sort order is a core feature to our product so fingers crossed for an update soon 🤞
