When adding a listing, you simply need to start typing the address and Google will help you find the exact address and location. You can even move the map marker and place wherever you like. On the listing page, it will not pinpoint an exact address, it will instead show a circle of the area. Which avoids giving away any personal addresses. = Shortcodes = [auto_listings_listing] [auto_listings_listings] [auto_listings_search] [auto_listings_contact_form] The shortcodes can be easily customized, with each shortcode having many options.
