Not Showing Up in Local Search

Original Post
Hi, I was told by someone that she tried to find me by the city (Eureka Springs, Arkansas) in the local search, and I was nowhere to be found. I used to be there, so apparently this is a glitch, or something has changed (and it's not my location!)
Do we need to add our city to tags now to be found in a local search? Or is there a setting that needs attention?
Thank you,
Laurie

It looks like your location isn't currently matched to the location information we use to surface items in local search results.
You can re-edit your profile's location information and you will appear in the correct location.
Click on Your Account > Public Profile and re-enter your location. When entering your information, make sure that the site recognizes the city you have entered. You can do this by choosing the location in the suggested drop-down that will appear. After you have chosen your location, make sure to click "Save Changes" at the bottom of the page.
If you have any other questions about this please let me know. I'm happy to help!

Hmmm, still not showing up. I re-edited the location according to your instructions and used the drop down box....maybe it takes a while to show up? I'll check it later so see if it worked. Thank you!
