We are currently testing the revised new ActionKit event registration form. The following work has been completed:
Retool the event RSVP public facing forms to optimize for virtual events
Update host tools page for virtual events and edit event page for hosts
Update attendee tools page for virtual events
I am currently testing the pages and reviewing the content of the corresponding automated emails inside of the templateset to account for virtual events.

If helpful, the test page can be found here: https://act.indivisible.org/event/test-local-actions/create/

As soon as the templateset testing is done we will switch over the templateset here: https://indivisible.actionkit.com/dash/events/local-actions/

Also we were able to get an answer to your question about geocoding:

If a user enters a 9 digit zip code, the zip is saved in core_user table zip field and the other 4 digits are saved to core_user.plus4.

If user enter their zip, but not an address, city or state, ActionKit will assign a state and even a city to the user. Usually a zip plus 4 is required to determine the city.

If a user enters a value in a postal code field, the value is saved to core_user.postal. If the user country='United States', the postal code is copied to the core_user.zip field, and if provided core_user.plus4 field. In any case, the postal code field value is left as entered.

ActionKit assigns a latitude and longitude to US or international users for whom we have a zip, postal or city. This is saved in core_location also. Lat/long is used to find events near a user.
