I think when I wrote as I did, that by entering in the editor, with e.g. place of birth (City, County, country), the location in the country in question could be captured, so when you clicked on the little Globe to bring up the map, the location (Country) was already there on the map.Each search impact the Geonames API credit.
When I use your suggested search, it's a bit of double work, because the location doesn't hit correctly when searching, and longitude and latitude don't fit into the 2 boxes.To my understanding, if the search doesn't find any place, make a first search or not doesn't change anything.
And then you still have to move the location on the map (the double work).
You only get the location correctly by using the method you suggested, by maneuvering with the map, and right-clicking on the map, whereby the coordinates are inserted into the 2 boxes.You can write the coordinates directly in the boxes.
And this is where the frustration arises, because you start every time, off the coast of France, when a new person's data needs to be placed.
The problem is that when you enter an address with a city name, possibly a county, and a country, the map will still show a location outside of France, and not the location based on the entered address, as you suggest. The country in question could be the trigger for placing the map.I still don't understand.
Open Street Maps has the function of popping up the map, after a location is entered.
