In Macmillan English Dictionary, it says:

come by phrasal verb

to go to the place where someone is for a short visit:
I’ll come by this afternoon and we can talk about what happened.
------------
What does 'where someone is for a short visit' mean?

I wonder if it means 'someone is for a short visit in/at the place' or 'someone is to the place for a short visit' or 'someone to the place is for a short visit'.

Thanks!

PS I also posted the same question in this, but all of your answers are unique to me. Thank you.

Yes, "where" means "the place".

Come to where I am standing = Come to the place I am standing.
 
Thanks! But which one does 'where' mean?
a. 'someone is for a short visit in/at/on/to the place'
b. 'someone is in/at/on/to the place for a short visit'
c. 'someone in/at/on/to the place is for a short visit'.
d. 'in/at/on/to the place someone is for a short visit'.
