use multiples seperate fields now like street + postal + city + country
if you want to keep your one field just remove the categorization and it should work again
Hi.
More or less the same problem: locations like "city, country" appear correctly on desktop, but, once published, do not work.
This appeared last week.

This post solved it! Under data view there is a new classification of "place" if your entire address is still in one column. Per the new feature video (which I should have watched but didn't...) there is a location heirarchy now too, which I suppose I should start using now. Thanks for your help!
mitchgrnr Yeah I just experimented a bit with the new hierarchy and drilldown but I don't really get it to work the way I want.
I basically want all the customer address info from multiples fields
street, postal code, city, country...
to be used for location finding.
With Drilldown even if I place country first and drill down I get weird results because it only uses one field per layer. I think the best solution is still to use the general query and concat all the strings into one field at least thats what gives me the best results
For aggregating country/regional totals I find it best to use shapemaps or a second map control.
