The above features that you activated are essentially post statuses, that allow you to set the CPT Listing status to &#8220;Sale Agreed&#8221;, &#8220;Under Offer&#8221;, or &#8220;Sold&#8221;. You can set these statuses for listings in bulk (or for each listing individually) right from the WP backend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tTo allow your users to be able to change the listing sold status from the frontend, GeoDirectory provides a <strong>Sale Status <\/strong>custom field that can be added to the listing form, right from our Form Builder.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<img width=\"578\" height=\"634\" src=\"https:\/\/wpgeodirectory.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-iA8WVrp6iQ.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpgeodirectory.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-iA8WVrp6iQ.png 578w, https:\/\/wpgeodirectory.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-iA8WVrp6iQ-274x300.png 274w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 578px) 100vw, 578px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Additional Info<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Once you have enabled the Sold features, the search option will display the&nbsp;fields &#8220;Set Status&#8221; and &#8220;Include Sold&#8221; to filter listings in search results.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>Similarly, the <a href=\"https:\/\/wpgeodirectory.com\/documentation\/article\/core-widgets\/gd-author-actions\/\">GD &gt; Author Actions<\/a> widget will also display&nbsp;buttons such as&nbsp;<strong>Mark as Sold, Mark as Under Offer, Mark as Sale Agreed, <\/strong>etc. to edit listing status.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>Bear in mind though, the <strong>Sold <\/strong>status essentially moves your listing to unpublished, so it is not viewable to the public.
