Google Map
The Google Map settings allow you to configure the location services function across your platform. From here, you can add your Google Maps API keys, choose which countries users can search from, and set a default starting location for clients. These settings ensure that customer addresses are accurate, and the overall location-based experience is smooth for your users.
Finding the Google Map Setting
- Log in to your Hyperzod Admin Panel. Navigate to Settings.
- In the Platform Setup section, find Google Maps and click on it.
Adding Your Google Map API Keys
- The first section is Map API Keys.
- You need to configure your Google Map API key for your location services to function properly.
Defining Searchable Countries
This setting controls where your customers can search for addresses.
- Global
If you leave Global selected, your users can search for addresses anywhere in the world.
- Select Country
If your business operates in a specific country, choose Select Country. You can then add up to five countries. This prevents users from trying to place orders from outside your operational area.
Setting a Default Location for Customers
The Default Client User Location section allows you to define a preset location for customers when they open your platform. When a user enters the website, it will automatically open the Discovery page based on the preset default location, skipping the Home page and avoiding the need to manually detect or request the user's location.
- Enable the Default location for clients.
Enable the default location for clients option to set a starting point for all users. When active, users automatically begin from the location you define. Specify the location by entering its latitude and longitude or by searching for it on the map.
- Hide the Location Bar
When enabled, it hides the location input bar in the client app. Customers won’t be able to change their location manually, which is useful when your business operates in a fixed area or city and you want to keep orders restricted to that location.
If you leave the “Hide Location Bar in Client App” box unchecked, customers will still begin at the default location, but they’ll also be able to search for and select a different address.
Once you have configured all your settings, simply click on the Save button.
