Description

Recent changes to browsers/APIs result in the find location button only working on HTTPS now due to "getCurrentPosition() and watchPosition() no longer work on insecure origins. To use this feature, you should consider switching your application to a secure origin, such as HTTPS. See https://goo.gl/rStTGz for more details.". Figure out a better way to do this or only allow it to be functional and visible when viewing as HTTPS.

Now checks for HTTPS before outputting geoLocation usage. If geoLocation fails it now also provides an error prompt so no one sits and waits expecting it to work when it failed.
