Every GeoDirectory widget and block also works as a shortcode, with the same settings. Below are the shortcodes in GeoDirectory core, then the ones our add-ons add. For screenshots and settings of each one, see the list of all GeoDirectory core widgets.

How to see every parameter of a shortcode

The easiest way to get a shortcode with all of its parameters is the shortcode builder. In the classic editor, click the GeoDirectory shortcode button above the editor, pick a widget, change its settings and insert it. The builder writes out the shortcode with the options you chose. See Shortcode Builder for details.

In the block editor, add the GeoDirectory block instead and use its settings panel. If you use a page builder, paste the shortcode into its text or shortcode element.

Showing one part of a listing on its own

The details page tabs come from [gd_single_tabs], but each part of a listing has its own shortcode too. If you build your own details template and want the reviews in one place and the description in another, use [gd_single_reviews] for the reviews, [gd_post_content key="post_content"] for the description, [gd_post_images] for the images and [gd_post_meta key="your_field_key"] for any custom field.
