aroundRadius and aroundLatLngViaIP handled as string in urlSync

Hi, I’ve custom widget in which I filter results by their location like so:

helper.setQueryParameter('aroundLatLngViaIP', true);
helper.setQueryParameter('aroundRadius', somevalue);

Search is working well and I can see these values send in HTTP requests to algolia.

Is there any particular reason to not have these values in URL when urlSync to enabled? Or is it just a bug?

Hi @swistak35 this is not a bug per se but a lack in our documentation on how to track them.

Here’s how to do it:

var search = instantsearch({
  // ... other parameters
  urlSync: {
    trackedParameters: [
      'attribute:*', 'query', 'page', 'hitsPerPage',
      'aroundLatLngViaIP', 'aroundRadius'
    ]
  }
});

You could add more of them if needed. Seems right?

Thanks
