    Hello, I have set up our directory using the theme that came with the GeoDirectory Core v2. After creating a dummy account and logging in, I noticed that I wasn’t able to edit the listing. When I am logged in as an admin, I have the edit link on the sidebar. Can you please take a look to see why this is not giving me the option as a user to edit the business listing.

    Hello,

    In screenshot 6.08.58 you are showing that the “GD Author Actions” widget is installed and active.

    That widget will automatically show the edit button/link to either

    1) Administrators or
    2) Listing owners

    If a user views that page when logged in, and they are not admin or listing owner, they will not see the button.

    To make the user the owner, you would need to edit the listing in the backend and show the ‘author’ field. Then choose the user’s username and save the listing. Then they can see the edit button.

    If we need to check the settings, please share WP Admin credentials and login URL in a private reply so we can see what is causing the problem.
