Registered users are not a problem, since you can have them supply info to derive the lat/long of their location, for non registered visitors I would look for a module supporting IP/locations, and then a module to calculate distance between two locations (I seem to recall one), sorting with a view on the distance between locations.

Good Luck, Warren

Hi to all,

Here http://iowalincolnhighway.org/Attractions you can see that the Attractions page is a just basic page, with some listed attractions. 

Now I have to create new content type, with attraction name, description, image, address, county, google map and/or long/lat coordinates.

I know how to create new content type. I just wonder how to sort the nodes? Ideally, it would be sorting by long/lat coordinates from east to west but I’m assuming it’s hard? The most easiest and the fastest way would be by adding “order” field (integer) and manually sort it by the order. Though, it could be PITA to reorder once I have almost hundred nodes… :(

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks
