Hi all, I’m have the GeoLocation addon and working via Google Places API, I’m trying to limit address to South Africa only.

1. I’m Using Garvity forms Version 2.9.9
2. Geolocation by Gravity Forms - 1.5.0
3. Divi Builder

I have inserted the following code into the functions.php file right at the bottom. But it still is not working. Any pointer or advice will be appreciated.

function limit\_autocomplete\_to\_south\_africa( $options, $form\_id ) {  
if ( $form\_id == 8 ) {  
$options[‘componentRestrictions’] = array( ‘country’ =\> ‘za’ );  
}  
return $options;  
}  
add\_filter( ‘gform\_geolocation\_place\_autocomplete\_options’, ‘limit\_autocomplete\_to\_south\_africa’, 10, 2 );

gform\_geolocation\_place\_autocomplete\_options is a JavaScript filter, not a PHP filter. See the following page of the documentation for usage examples:

> **[gform\_geolocation\_place\_autocomplete\_element\_options](https://docs.gravityforms.com/gform_geolocation_place_autocomplete_element_options/)**
>
> Customize Google Place Autocomplete settings for address fields in Gravity Forms using this filter.
