Posted 5 months ago #I don't think there is a plugin to accomplish this. You would need to write it or have it written for you. There are public freeware DB's out there of zipcodes tied to lat/long coordinates that are commonly used in the "find closest location" type tools on many websites.
If you are doing just a single local site, it might be simpler to just ask them if they are local, as you are relying on them not lying about their zip in the first place.
Another thing to consider is to map the them by IP address as that is another DB out there which is tied into location. that DB is pretty flaky though as it is based on the ISP so someone in rural NC for example could show up as being 50 miles away in Charlotte where their ISP is located. -

I am looking for a way for my registrants to chose their own password at the time of registration. Can you point me in the right direction?
