If you are using the "googlemaps" input, you may need to get a [< name=url>https://developers.google.com/maps/</> Google Maps API key], then set it in LocalSettings.php</> via the <code>$wgPageFormsGoogleMapsKey</code></> setting, for the input to display.

All of the map inputs lets you enter an address to locate the coordinates more easily.
<!--T:143--> But if the form already contains one or more fields to enter the address, then the user may have to enter it twice - once to actually store the data, and the second to locate the coordinates.
 
<!--T:144--> To avoid users having to do this double work, you can have the address field(s) feed their values directly to the map when locating the point.
<!--T:145--> You can do that using the "feeds to map=" parameter - look for "feeds to map" [[Extension:Page_Forms/Defining_forms#.27field.27_tag</>|here]].
