Hi

Detect my location doesn't work on Chrome.
I checked also on IE and Firefox, they work fine..
Could you please shed a light why it stopped working?
It used to work.. I only noticed that it is not working couple days ago.

Thanks!
Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. Looks like Google Chrome is enforcing that a site needs to be on https before allowing the site to request for the current location. Take a look at this article, https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/Home/chromium-security/deprecating-powerful-features-on-insecure-origins

I have tested this on my local instance and indeed, it looks like Google is denying such requests unless the site is served over "https"
