I would be happy, in the short term, to have it default to a search of the UK – as we only have a few listings outside .
but when I look at GD>General>search>Add location specific text to (near) it says “should be blank if using default country, regions etc with multilocation addon as it will automatically add them)”
?? I am using multilocation addon

Hi thanks!
I did that again and again… wouldn’t work.. finally I discovered the problem. the default language file type is geodirclaim-en_US.po/.mo to american english – but my site is set to british english .. I changed the file names to geodirclaim-en_GB.po/.mo and it worked fine. Took me ages to figure that out though!

This reply has been marked as private.This reply has been marked as private.thanks.. yes.. I understand it’s not the system.
Maybe a suggestion for future updates. a feature that allows you to specify map zoom/centre for listing map ? 🙂
thanks anyway!
5tjust to be clear.. that function above would work if this were the main page, rather than the listing page right?
well. then it’s not fair to the over 100 other members we have who complain that they can’t tell if their listing is on the map.
our only solution that we can think of is to place the turkish listing in France.. or the Channel Islands. and then make it very clear in title and listing that it is actually in turkey
Our turkish member is going to be really annoyed
no.. that wouldn’t work. I thought maybe if I gave turkey a special category.. that somehow I could make just that category not show… but it’s well beyond me.
When it zooms out to include turkey the bulk of our listings appear like a giant mass of colour and it looks absolutely terrible.
Hi Thanks.. that’s because we’ve had to put the turkish listing in “draft” mode – to keep the map from centering on Germany!
if you look in drafts you’ll see a turkish listing there and if y ou activate it. you’ll see a lovely, empty map of germany.
Thanks
.This reply has been marked as private.I wonder if maybe I could add a function that did this bit
// Untick the category by default on home map if ($is_home_map && $geodir_home_map_untick = get_option('geodir_home_map_untick')) { if (!empty($geodir_home_map_untick) && in_array($post_type . '_' . $cat_term->term_id, $geodir_home_map_untick)) { $checked = ''; } }which I found in geodirectory-functions/map-functions/map_functions.php
If I could add something in my functions.php file that did THAT – but applied it to the listing map then maybe I could exclude the turkish listing from the map – and then the map would center where I need it to??
what do you think?
oh… I also tried to set the GD>Design>Home Map Settings – so that it excludes the new category I assigned to the Turkey listing – but this only works on the “home” map.. and my default view is the “listing” map.. so it doesn’t work there 🙁 so I can’t use this.. is there anything I can do? I just want my map to center on the UK and pretend that turkey isn’t there unless they scroll the map over to it
there must be a way
