Store Locator Detail Page

[Ebrahim_Manasawala]

Hello Everyone,

The Client wants to show store locator details page using YEXT integration on the website. If a user clicks on any search result on the store locator listing page then it should get redirected to the store locator details page with the store details and a map pointing to that location.

Is this integration available?

There is a training with that same use case. It is on Pages track, module 4, sadly no one has been able to make it work because an error on the source code provided. I’d be surprised if anyone from Yext responds to any post.

Hello @Ebrahim_Manasawala and @Kenny_Quinones

The issues you are facing has been faced while working with pages-starter-react-locations repository, or it is starter repository which has been mentioned in module 01 unit03

I’m not sure what pages-starter-location is. Is this a new repo included in the trainings? I guess not.
We are just following the training that uses: GitHub - yext/pages-starter-react-locations (which was archived since Feb 26) and isn’t working at all, as simple as that!
Do you guys have a new repo and you forgot to update on the trainings? If you follow the flow with ‘yext pages new’ we will end with a repo cloned from the archived one.

Here’s is a previous post of mine with more details:

Errors when using a new Locations Starter (Basic)

There are plenty of posts talking about a huge blocker on the Module 4 - Unit 2 of the Pages track. Not a single person is able to make the search works. But still no one from Yext seems to care about it. Just in my team there are at least 5 people doing the trainings and everyone has stopped after reaching this point. But again, who cares right? Anyways I return to the training today to see if I’m missing something and I found out that the code of the Locations Starter Basic has issues on it.…

Hi Kenny,

We recently updated the track and documentation to reflect a few changes that were the cause of the issues you were facing. If you start over, you should be able to proceed through the track without issue at this point.

“pages-starter-react-locations” is the starter repository we recommend using when going through the learning track (as Tosh stated). If you run yext pages new, this corresponds wth “Locations Starter (Basic)” - which is the first option you’ll see returned by the CLI.

Thank you,
Luc

Thanks Everyone for the inputs, it really helps.

So to confirm, we need to go through this module “Pages | Hitchhikers” in order to create a store locator detail page on the client website. Is this understanding correct?

Regards,
Ebrahim.

Thank you Luc for updating here. Yes @Ebrahim_Manasawala, you can proceed with the Page Track you have mentioned. With the updates performed recently. you shouldn’t face any trouble now. However in case you find any issue, feel free to write here.

Hey Luc - that’s what I’ve been doing “so many times”. Runing ‘yext pages new’ and selecting “Locations Starter (Basic)” but internally the CLI was picking an old repo that was archived and with errors on it.
With the latest changes you guys made I can see now my new repo cloned from the new “pages-starter-react-locations” and after run my build I don’t see the error about “module not define” that was blocking the entire Pages TRACK.
It took a while to fix a huge blocker created by Yext that was impacting so many people. It’s VERY frustrating the amount of hours that some of us spent on trying to figure it out what was happening, knowing that the solution was out of our hands. But at this point I’m gonna say - ‘Big Thanks’ and move on…
