I am trying to make the Search widget trigger the Near Me widget. I've gotten it to set the Near Me location and to perform the Near Me actions (zooming, filtering).
I want it to also open the Near Me widget so that users will see the options to adjust the buffer radius, but I cannot get the "Open widget" trigger to work. I'm attaching a screenshot of how I've set it, but so far it refuses to open even as the other triggers work fine. Am I missing something?
I have found the order of Actions sometimes matters to get them to trigger. Try moving your Open Widget Action around in the order. (I'm guessing the last position would work best.) You can re-order Actions by clicking and dragging them.
Thanks. I think I've tried every permutation of ordering them, and no luck.
I did find a workaround, which was to put my Near Me widget in a sidebar, and trigger opening that sidebar from the Search.
Before, I had the Near Me widget in a widget controller, which I do think SHOULD have worked, but I couldn't get it to.
