Laraship Classified supports two types of Location management for ads, either using specific locations defined by admin, similar to craigslist,
or by using zip codes grabbed by google address integration and auto complete feature. in the second case, the location selection is changed from drop-down to google address autocomplete field on both dashboard and frontend, and matching will be based on zip code.
To select your address management model, you can use the “Enable Google location” flag in the classified setting section.
