 * I’m working with a site and there should be maybe location settings in the plugin
   where there are default locations listed rather than random results shown before
   filtering by zip/distance.. is this something you guys can clarify for me? Are
   there any particular plugin settings that I may be missing?
 * Many Thanks!

 * Hi Danny,
    Not sure what yo mean by :default locations” If you wish to have some
   locations from your data set to “Always show in results” as featured or ranked,
   or sorted in a different manner rather then by distance and/or location, that
   is a feature in one of the WPSLP add-ons. Depending on what you are looking for,
   you can change layouts, [“order by”](https://docs.storelocatorplus.com/blog/results-order-by-display/),
   radius behavior etc with Experience add-on. You can add categories etc with Power
   add-on. See the documentation site (example searching for [“results”](https://docs.storelocatorplus.com/blog/category/base-advanced/settings-tab/results/)
   for more infp.

 * Thank you for the update! So if I’m looking for a setting that will have specified
   locations shown (by default) before a search is done, that is something likely
   only possible with the Experience add-on, correct? An example would be company
   branch locations to take priority before any location search is initiated.
 * Many Thanks!

 * It all depends on how you plan on setting up the identifier indicating how to
   define a “Branch” If you are going to manually add an hierarchy via categories?
   or tags ? (that is a different add-on that is Power) or simply add a ranking 
   per location by manually ranking it when you add the location., Refer to the 
   rank feature in docs site.
 *  if you plan on identifying a branch by a tag or a category that is different.
   You can also rank a category , so you might need both add-ons. If you could post
   in our [forums](https://wordpress.storelocatorplus.com/forums/) or send an email
   to the contact us link and provide specifications and more details we should 
   be able to provide you additonal information. This forum does not get visited
   as often and is more about the free base plugin.
