Mapping sheet columns to locator fields

You can connect the columns in your store locator sheet to the corresponding fields in your store locator. This allows LocateStore to display your location information correctly.

First, make any changes to your column headers directly in your store locator sheet. Then, open your LocateStore dashboard and go to Settings > Columns to review and manage your mappings.

Title

Select the column that contains the name or title of your location or business. This is the name that will be displayed for each location in your store locator.

Address

Map the column or columns that contain your location's address information. You can use multiple columns for different parts of the address, such as the street address, region, or country.

Description

Select the column containing additional information about your location. This can be used to provide visitors with more details about the store or business. Description is only shown when you click on a location.

Email

Map the column containing the email address for your location. Visitors can use this information to contact the business directly.

Phone

Select the column containing the phone number for your location. This allows visitors to see and contact the business by phone.

Business Hours

Map the column containing your location's opening hours or business hours. These hours will be displayed on the location details card.

URL

Select the column containing the website URL for your location. Visitors can use this link to visit the location's website or relevant webpage.

Filters

Select the columns you want visitors to use for filtering locations in your store locator. You can select multiple columns, such as Address, Region, or Name, to help visitors narrow down their search.

Tags

Map a column containing tags or categories associated with your locations. Tags can help organize your locations and provide additional ways to categorize them.

Images

Select the columns containing images for your locations. You can map multiple image columns to display several images for each location.

Primary Button

Choose the main action that will appear on your location card. By default, the Primary Button is set to Get Directions, which allows visitors to get directions to the selected location.

Secondary Button

Choose the action that will appear as the secondary button on your location card. By default, the Secondary Button is set to View on map, which allows visitors to see the selected location on the map.

Note

You can add additional filter options by adding custom columns to your Locator Sheet. Make sure you map these additional columns in Settings > Columns on your dashboard.
