This works on XF 2.2

Would you consider adding functionality to have the field value default to City, Country from GeoIP based on IP address?

Sim updated Location Explain with a new update entry:

v1.0.1 bugfix

The account_details template changed in v2.2.8 (as a result of this bugfix notification: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/location-field-is-not-marked-as-required.199852/) which in turn broke the template modification for this addon.

v1.0.1 updates the template modification to work with the new version of the template and sets the minimum required version of XF to 2.2.8
