SobiPro NearBy   (type: Module)

requirement:  of course: SobiPro (tested v1.4.11 - I'm testing the new v1.5.2 here live :)

                                      a geohash field in the section where you want to use this module.

                                      important: database MySQL > 5.6  or MariaDB > 11.8

                  you can see a demo inside the  SobiPro test installation (not working because MariaDB 10.11)

                   this module is only displayed on the details page of an entry 

 

NOTE:  as my hosting provider switched the database to MariaDB v10.11 the

             needed geohash functions are not available (only if MariaDB > v11.8)

using standard MySQL > v5.6 will run this without problems, but MariaDB

has implemented the needed spatial geohash functions first from v11.8 

you may search for:  ST_PointFromGeoHash

 

a little module that displays entries near by the active one

 

you have to select a section and and the name of the geohash field in this section

choose to show entries from a defined category, only the same category or from all categories

set the maximum distance and the maximum of shown entries along with some output options

 

IMPORTANT:

you must have or add a (new) field in your section-fields setup, where the

necessary geohash data of the entry address is stored for distance calculation

(use a field name of your choice, as long as you select it in the module setup :)
