Hi,

Not sure I can really do this. On the details page I am looking for the ability to list related posts but on a specific category rather than the category of the post itself.

It seems Popular Posts widget allows you to select based on a category but does not have a search order based on location to the current listing, whilst the Related Listings widget does the search based on listing but forces to search based on the posts category or tags.

Looks like I want either:
1) the related listings to have a specific category selection, OR
2) the popular posts to have a search order “distance”

Or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Ian

Hi,

enabling the “location filter” option in the popular post widget doesn’t work?

Let us know,

Thanks

The enable location selects places from the location but the sort is restricted to featured, reviews, A-Z etc

What i would like is the sort to be based on the distance from the current listing which is what the related listings widget does.

I’m sorry, but that would require a customization.

Thanks

OK, thanks.

Shame as seems so useful in a geo site.
