GeoDirectory search results always load on the GD search page, so instead of filtering on the page the visitor started from, you design the search page with the search bar, map and results list in the order you want. A map on that page shows the listings in the results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With shortcodes, the page looks like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[gd_notifications]\n[gd_search]\n[gd_map map_type='auto' width='100%' height='400px']\n[gd_loop_actions]\n[gd_loop layout=2]\n[gd_loop_paging]<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\nUse the same arrangement on the page where visitors start (search bar, a Directory map and GD > Listings<\/a>), and the search results will look like the page they came from.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAdd your own fields as filters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Filtering by your own custom fields needs the Advanced Search add-on. It adds fields to the search bar or to a filters panel, set up per post type. Fields with fixed choices, such as selects and checkboxes, make the best filters, so a free text field like Year works better changed to a select. See How to add a filter to the main search bar<\/a> and How to add a filter to the Advanced Search filters<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nChoose what each result shows<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The fields shown for each listing in the results come from the archive item template, the page set as Archive item page under GeoDirectory > Settings > General > Pages. Add GD > Post Meta blocks for the fields you want and remove the ones you don’t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Filtering the map without a page load<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If you only need to filter the markers, the Directory map has “Enable search filter?”, “Enable category filter?” and “Enable post type filter?” options. These change the markers on the map itself and leave any listings block on the page as it is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
