Description
The Geolocation addon automatically captures location data from users who fill out forms in WPForms, recording country, state, city, postal code, latitude, and longitude with each submission. Designed for those who collect leads, organize regional events, or segment campaigns by region, the component also adds an address field with Google Places autocomplete, speeding up completion and reducing typing errors.
Key Features of Geolocation
- Automatic location capture
Records the country, state, city, and postal code of each submission without any user action. - Address autocomplete
Suggests addresses in real time as the visitor types in the form field. - Latitude and longitude coordinates
Stores precise geographic points linked to each entry received. - Visual location map
Displays the user’s position on an interactive map within the entry record. - Map provider integration
Connects the address field to external services for validation and geocoding.

Each lead arrives with geographic context ready for analysis and segmentation. - Faster forms
Autocomplete reduces clicks and abandonment in long address fields. - Accurate regional campaigns
Allows contacts to be filtered by region for localized offers and initiatives. - Fewer registration errors

- Regional event organizers who need to segment registrants by city or state.
- Those who use registration forms with address fields and want to reduce completion friction.
