Client Location Origin Geofield Proximity Source not only exposed.

Hi itamair,

Using this patch in combination with the patch found here (https://www.drupal.org/project/geofield/issues/3014737) is not working for me. There is no option to use the client location as the origin that I can find when adding using the proximity plugin as a field or sort criteria.

Thanks,
Stuart

My apologies - I now understand that the filter must be added, but not exposed.

Hi Itamair,

A question for you: I have the proximity filter in place using client location origin and am displaying the distance from the user as a field. Caching for the view is disabled.

When I load the page on different devices in different locations, the same content and distances display as if the client's location isn't being queried. Clearing the site's cache does not cause the view to update what's displayed, so it seems the location used the first time the view is loaded is what is used indefinitely.

Using Geofield 8.x-1.6, and Drupal 8.7.2. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Stuart

Thank you for the details. I will investigate that solution shortly.

As a quick fix, I have exposed the filter, hidden it via CSS, and then used JS to submit the form once the page content has finished loading.

Glad to hear it could prove useful. I don't have any experience contributing to modules, so will have to read up on how that's done. I am still a novice in that regard. I will include my code here hoping that it is useful and may try my hand at contributing a commit at some point.

The below code waits until the page has finished loading, then waits another second (just in case), and then clicks the exposed form submit/apply button (you'll need to insert your own selector). Use CSS to apply 'display: none;' to the exposed for container or proximity exposed filter element.

Only tested in latest versions of Firefox, Edge and Chrome on Windows 10 so far.

$( window ).on('load', function() {
      function sleep (time) {
        return new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, time));
      }

      sleep(1000).then(() => {
          $('#your-block-id #exposed-form-submit-button-id').trigger('click');
      });
});
