    Hi I have made the page below by making a menu from the category

    http://79.170.40.242/kintyreway.com/businesses/accommodation/

    but i would like to know the short code to show this on a normal page so as I can add adverts etc

    also I would like to have the option not to show all the categories above

    can you change the order the categories show in ?

    thanks

    Hello, you can set the number of category to display, for example this will show 10 categories
    [gd_popular_post_category category_limit=10]
    You can find more details about shortcodes in this page

    The widget (and so the shortcode) will only list categories or a limited number of categories, it won’t allows you to choose which one to display. I know this is not a solution, but you can eventually insert a text widget with a link to the category you want to display

    If you mean in an external page, it isn’t possible. You can use the GMAP Listing page in the GD Listing Top section and you’ll have the map based on the current category. In an external page with the shortcode you can set the GD Home page map with [gd_homepage_map] (which is displaying all the post types)

    yes it is already like that.
    if you go here for example http://79.170.40.242/kintyreway.com/businesses/section-3/
    you’ll see on the right side, in the map, all the listings for the section 3

    which one? It might be because the listing is added in more than one category
