JomSocial Expired

ISSUE SUMMARY:
As a user, when you go to add a status update, photo, video etc (any activity stream update) and press the "Location" icon, it prompts you to press "Share location" in browser. We click this, then it shows the correct area in the map underneath BUT, it shows "No matching locations".
From what I believe, this is meant to show google places locations.
It did show one random location earlier on a different computer/location, but there are thousands of locations around me right now (in the area that the map is showing me) but it is showing zero pins/locations.

STEPS TO REPLICATE:
1. Login to frontend, you will be redirected to the member home/activity stream
2. Type a status update
3. Press the marker icon below to share location
4. Press "Share location" in your browser

RESULT - It will show the correct area on the map but no locations
EXPECTED RESULT - It should show all google places locations within the area of the map that is selected
BROWSER - FF, Chrome and IE, various versions of all.

Hi, Tim.

For my location it shows some places: prntscr.com/807xyb
Anyway this will be improved in JomSocial 4.1 that will be available any time soon.


- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

- Use the "Thank You" feature on any post that helped you
