🗺️ Product Update: Set Default Map Location by User in SitePad CRM
ou can now control where maps open by default for each user in SitePad CRM.
✅ What’s new
In Settings > Users > [Select User], you can now set exact Latitude and Longitude coordinates for each user. Note: This can only be populated by Admin users.
Once saved, all map views for that user will automatically default to that location, including:
- Site maps
- Lead maps
- Task maps
This is perfect for teams working in specific regions, reducing the need to constantly pan and zoom to the right area.
📍 Example coordinates
You can use the following as an example:
- Latitude:
55.08850460 - Longitude:
-1.61009360
🧭 How to get your Latitude and Longitude
Here are two easy methods:
Option 1: Using Google Maps (desktop or mobile)
- Go to https://maps.google.com
- Find the location you want as the default
- Right-click on the exact spot (or tap and hold on mobile)
- Click the numbers at the top of the menu
- The latitude and longitude will be copied to your clipboard
- Paste them into the Latitude and Longitude fields in SitePad
Example format you will see:55.0885046, -1.6100936
Just split them into:
- Latitude = first number
- Longitude = second number
Option 2: Using an address
- Search for the address in Google Maps
- Click on the map pin
- The coordinates will appear in the info panel or in the URL
- Copy and use those values in SitePad
🔧 Where to set it in SitePad

Settings > Users > Select User > Map Defaults (Latitude / Longitude)
Enter the values and save.
That’s it. From now on, that user’s maps will always open in the right region. 🌍
