IDirectory - Nearest Location

Example of a customized Front-end view for a church website

This module displays a link to the nearest location based on Browser's Location or based on IP address. It saves the location in the browser's session, so it retrieves the information only once per session, therefore increasing performance. If the user is on a Mobile device the module will not store the session data and will always ask for the user's location, in order to make sure we have the latest user's location.
