Categories and Subcategories

Hello.

I’m using the default PLACE Post Type…

My demo site is: http://cloudsidea-design.com/DEMOS-SITES/mvm02/

The example:
http://cloudsidea-design.com/DEMOS-SITES/mvm02/museu/agricultura-pastoricia-e-aquacultura/viveiro-da-fonte-santa/
This link is of a place that suposed is linked to the subcategory Agricultura, Pastorícia e Aquacultura that is part of the main category “ECONOMIA LOCAL“:

The beadcrumbs looks like this:
Home > Museu > Agricultura, Pastorícia e Aquacultura > Viveiro da Fonte Santa

And It should be like this:
Home > Museu > Economia Local > Agricultura, Pastorícia e Aquacultura > Viveiro da Fonte Santa

It’s necessary to create one Custom Post Type for all the main categories that I need? Doesn’t make sense… for me I guess…

Thanks for your reply

Hi thank you for your reply….

I insist… ins’t there a way to change the way the geodirectory works with categories and subcategories?

I need that the structure works with at least 3 levels CATEGORY > SUBCATEGORY > SUB SUB CATEGORY…

I already tried to create for each MAIN CATEGORY a Custom Post Type… but the problem is the same…

Thanks again.

Hello…

Idon’t know you can please se this code…

I’m still tryng to mage a way to show the category > subcategory structure in the breadcrumbs….

I know that is not a good pratice to change the code because of future problems with updades.. but well i am trying to get a solution for a problem that i seems is a general request at your forum…

So please review and gave me your opinion… I’m not a great programmer…

SO I tried this adjustment in the page at:
pluginsgeodirectorygeodirectory-functionsgeneral_functions.php

at line:
your code: if (geodir_is_page(‘detail’))
I enter this new one:

if (geodir_is_page('detail'))

//the new code
{
			
				$category = get_the_terms( $post_type->ID, $gd_taxonomy );     
				foreach ( $category as $cat){
				$cat->name.'  ';
				$cat->slug. '';
				}
				
				$breadcrumb .= $separator . '<a>slug.'">'.$cat->name.'</a>';
//end new code
//code origianl
$breadcrumb .= $separator . get_the_title();
$breadcrumb .= '</li>';
//end code original

// new code
}

I know that this option gives me an error…

The outocome is right and i can view the right levels of the breadcrumbs until the second level, like this:

CPT CATEGORY > MAIN CATEGORY> SUBCATEGORY > NAME OF POST

But if i need a new subcategory, gives me a litle error… it jumps a category..
It’s suposed to write:
CPT CATEGORY > MAIN CATEGORY> SUBCATEGORY > SUB-SUBCATEGORY > NAME OF POST
but it jumps a subcategory..
CPT CATEGORY > MAIN CATEGORY> SUB-SUBCATEGORY > NAME OF POST

I think it’s possible to wrote a code, not changing a thing in the database, in the general_fucntions.php based on the the WIDGET GD POPULAR POST CATEGORY… because it display all the categories and subcategories…

I just don’t know how to improve the code at general_functions.php…

Please advice…

Thanks
