Hey Pat, you assisted me with the radians/degrees issue. I was looking for
a clearer idea than what Nicholas suggested for the part I needed advice on.
I have TS setup to find locations based on latitude/longitude that are near
one another. This part functions as expected.
The next step that I am not clear on is how to setup so that if I perform a
location search using a zip code from the Locations table to have it return
users who are within the specified distance.
I am building a app so users can find nearby users using their zip code. I
want users to enter any zip code and it will return users within 200km.
I am not sure if there is more required from me in the searches controller
that will make the search perform how I would like when users a zip code
within the search box.
