Store Finder

Publish a searchable list of active business locations with visitor-initiated nearby results

Pro+ Required. Store Finder reads the locations managed under ProRank SEO → Local SEO → Locations Manager.

Add Store Finder to a Page

Add the shortcode to a page, shortcode block, widget, or supported builder template:

[prorank_store_finder]

The frontend loads only when the shortcode renders. Multiple instances are supported on the same page.

Shortcode Options

[prorank_store_finder
  radius="25"
  max_results="10"
  show_filters="true"
  style="modern"
  primary_color="#2563eb"]

Attribute	Default	Purpose
`radius`	25	Initial distance radius in miles after device location is used
`max_results`	10	Maximum location cards shown
`show_filters`	true	Shows radius, Open Now, Wi-Fi, parking, and EV-charging filters
`style`	modern	Sets the container style identifier
`primary_color`	blue	Accepts a valid three- or six-digit hex colour

Visitor Experience

Search by location name, address, city, region, or postal code.
Filter by opening status and stored amenities.
Open directions, call a location, or visit its website.
Click the location icon to request browser permission and sort by distance.
See opening status in the WordPress site timezone, including overnight hours.

Privacy and Public Data

The public endpoint returns active locations only and projects an allow-list of display fields: name, public address, contact details, coordinates, hours, and amenities. Internal notes, scores, timestamps, primary flags, and import metadata are excluded.

Device coordinates remain in the visitor's browser. Store Finder does not send them to ProRank or save them in WordPress.

Current Map Support

Version 1.4.6 ships the tested list view. The legacy show_map attribute is accepted for compatibility, but no map view is displayed until a supported map implementation is added.

Troubleshooting

No locations appear: confirm at least one location is active and has a non-empty name.
Nearby results are empty: add valid latitude and longitude to each location and increase the radius.
Open Now is incorrect: verify the WordPress site timezone and each day's opening-hours values.
The finder stays on its loading message: rebuild Premium frontend assets and confirm build/store-finder.js exists.
