Hi,
I'm marking this as a BUG because in D6 I have exactly the same functionality and it works. In D7 it doesn't work.

The Setup:
1) Location + Gmap module.
2) Gmap block is active and displaying in the sidebar on node full view.
3) End users enter addresses in 2 Location fields (Street and City... for example "31 Fleet Street, London") -- all other parameters (Country, Region, Postcode) are pre-selected (enforced) because this is a very local website. They do not place any markers on the GMap because the system will do that for them automatically, based on Street address that they enter.

Result: When the node is saved, on the node view sidebar we see a GMap block with the Location Mark automatically appearing (notice: they did not manually place any markers. They only entered their street address).

In D6 this works like a charm. In D7 it doesn't work.

PS: I also noticed that in D6 it will capture the address with a comma, like this: 31 Fleet Street, London. But in D7, it captures the address without the comma, like this: 31 Fleet Street London. Maybe this is the reason why GMap is unable to auto-place the location marker.

Similar issue for me. If the location data is typed into fields, the block does not display. If the location is picked via the marker on the map, then the block does display.

Same issue here it would be great to resolve this since it's a fairly large show stopper in terms of CCK implementation of GMap?

Changing the state to location views since it's more for that.
