Regions Not Created Correctly

I am using Google Maps as a provider, with both keys set up correctly. Regions are created correctly most time but not always. I have turned on restiction of the exact address option.

Steps to reproduce

Set the property address to 1 The Strand, Takapuna, Auckland, New Zealand. When saved, it becomes “The Strand, Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand”. That is wrong. It should be “The Strand, Takapuna, Auckland, New Zealand”.

The region is is created as auckland - auckland - auckland

Use second property and set its address to 1 The Strand, Parnell, Auckland, New Zealand. When this property is saved, it also becomes “The Strand, Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand”. That is wrong. It should be “The Strand, Parnell, Auckland, New Zealand”.

Takapuna and Parnell are two regions of Auckland. They are kilometers away but on my site above two properties appear to be in same location from the search perspecive “The Strand, Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand”.

When I look at the listings details page for those two properties, they are shown correctly one in Takapuna and the other one in Parnell.

It is the regions functionality that is at fault, affecting the search function and listing displays on the site.

I have attached a screen showing how this looks like for users. Two properties shown there are kilometers away and not in the same region.

I am concerned that this issue will be much more widespread.

Please fix it.

Hi,

Please note that HivePress does not affect this display, as we receive this data automatically via the API from Google Maps. If some regions do not display correctly when you use Google Maps, please try to test Mapbox.

​I hope this is helpful to you.
