Choose a Location feature update idea

Daniel DeSouza Posted in Component Development 7 years ago

My current issue with the "Choose Your Location" feature on the OSSN site.

On Facebook, when you sign up for the first time, they ask you to choose your location so that you can see posts and friend request from other users in your same location, my OSSN site is for Caribbean users, if i have a user from Barbados wanting to hook up with other Bajans instead of their timeline being full with a user from Columbia or St. Kits, how can this be fixed?

Hi Zat Man,

There a component addon located here:

But i think it would be nice if, when you choose a geographic location the OSSN site would keep post and friends in your area and not fill your personal timeline with people are not living in your area or country with posts that is not for you...
Especially when talking about the Ads posted on the OSSN site, I would like to make sure that the Ads posted on the site is directed to the location of the users...

Just a thought!
