I’m currently on the old version of Glide and want to rebuild on the new version, but there is one deal breaker, which I need a solution for before switching.
The app is for a global hospitality network similar to Airbnb. I need to be able to show the general but not precise location of each host on the map so guests can see where they are located, but not their exact address (for the hosts’ privacy and safety). In the old version of Glide, the Address field is not displayed in the map details. The new version of Glide displays the Address field and there is no option to hide it.
Below are screenshots of the old vs new version of the maps.
The old version uses the address or coordinates to show the location of the pin on the map, but it does not display the address/coordinates in the details. There is a secondary field to select what is displayed in the details.
The new version uses the address to show the location of the pin on the map AND displays it in the details. There is no way to hide the address in the details.
What we need to display to the public is only the city, state, country of our hosts, not the full address (for obvious safety and security reasons for our hosts). If I select city, state, country only in the Address field, then only one host per city will appear on the map. We have two hosts in Temecula, CA (see old version map) but only one shows up in the new version.
We have a system set up to offset coordinates by a random number and direction so that the pin does not show the host’s exact location, but general area (for their safety and privacy). I tried just using the offset coordinates for the address, but then the coordinates display in the details. This doesn’t look good, but I think it’s the only option we have for now. Is there a way to hide that line using CSS?
If you have a solution, to this I would love to hear it!
