    Hi there,

    I am having trouble with Geodirecotry and advance search addon that i bought from you. I am trying to customize the GeoDirectory search bar. Let me first describe what I am trying to build.

    I need to have a search page with only one search text field which will search only for matches in the post titles. I dont need any location matches or anything else. However, I need to search the post titles of ‘Places’ which was added to my WP panel after installing GeoDirectory plugin. I dont want any search in the default wordpress posts.
    I have also created some categories, through the Places tab in the WP panel. I need to have a list of my 3 categories and when I click one fo them, I need to fetch all the posts related to this category.
    After fetching the category related data, I want to use the search described at the top of the post to “filter” the search results and low the result set.

    So, is this possible? I have also bought Advance Search Add-on. If this is not possible is there any add-on that will make it possible? If not what can I do for it? Alternatives?

    Regards,
    Demetris

    Hi again, thank you for answering so fast. Let me inform you about what I am currently seeing in the menu options.

    Going at the GD Places Seetings, in the custom fields I can not find what you are describing in the documentation. Please take a look at the following images and reply back. Am I having an old version? (I am using version 2 of both Geodirectory and advance search). What is going wrong?
