 * Hi,
    the 2.0beta version so far works great! Almost all the store inputs can 
   be done from frontend except geocoding.
 * I was wondering if the store address can be geocoded from frontend. Curretnly
   it can only be done from backend, that is, address input from backend will automatically
   generate the postmeta of latitude and longitude.
 * Your help would be greatly appreciated.

 * I don’t understand what you mean with geocoded from frontend, and store input
   from frontend? The plugin only allows you to enter data in the backend, or do
   you use a third party plugin to make it possible on the frontend?

 * Hi Tijmen,
 * Thanks a lot for your quick reply. Yes, I do use a third party plugin to enter
   the data. There are any way to directly geocode by enter an address from frontend?

 * What is the name of the plugin you are using now? If it doesn’t support it by
   default, then it’s not possible at the moment.

 * It can be done by directly entering Latitude and Longitude, but I prefer to enter
   zipcode and then latitude and longitude will be able to automatically generated
   from frontend, which currently can only be done from the back.
 * Anyway, thank you very much for the help!
