  Hi- just setting up a new blog for Andalucia Weddings and trying to change the physical street adress to a place in Spain (blog currently shows it as San Diego California). It says press shift and click, but all this does is take me to Google Maps and then never saves my address. Help please

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  P.S. If the Google map is installed in a text widget then go here > Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets then remove it and replace it with the new address.

  Many thanks for the answers timethief. I do not want to publish the blog until I can get the address right. I do not have the Google Map installed via the widgets either so will wait to hear from Staff Assitance. Thank you for taking the time to respond.

  Hi @tapasinmalaga,

  I’m not 100% sure whether you’re referring to the map location in the Contact Hours widget or the location posted alongside your posts.

  When I view the map on your widget (after enabling the map), it correctly shows the location in Spain. Can you try enabling the map under your Contact Hours widget here?

  For your posts, I don’t currently see a location set here:

  A Day in the Life of a Wedding Planner

  If you would like, you can set the location for a post following the instructions here:

  Geotagging

  If I completely missed the mark on your question, please let me know!
