thank you
You need to put the term sort completely out of your mind as that is a totally different function to what I am referring to.
It is impossible to sort search results (I already knew this years ago) but it is possible to filter search results by custom fields except it is not working on my install.
Example of a filter:
only show results that have ‘Disabled Access’Example of a sort (impossible for search results):
Show ‘Disabled Access’ at the top of the list. (ascending – descending) / (A-Z)sort and filter are different things see attached image
We have been using CSV because the data we have is in that format and we have more still to import. If there is an alternative I’m all ears, I’m not super fluent with API’s and app development but I would like to release our website as an app in the future. Has Geodirectory progressed any further with developing an app?
Mate the filters are not working in the link you sent. you are getting 1076 results because you wrote ‘poi’ in the keyword section of search, this works, FILTERS DO NOT
I know exactly how the search works as I’ve been a Geodirectory developer since you launch the product (3+ Years).
In the attached image I removed the search filters ‘Disabled Access’ and ‘Amenities & Facilities’ and it had zero effect on the results therefore they are BROKEN. Are you trying to tell me that Search filters are a complete waste of space?? because I have had these working for years and I know for a fact that they used to filter results.
I really, really need you to refer me to @paolo , @stiofan or @guust now
Thanks
Its just a bit cumbersome because if you choose to reduce your tag limit or you import listings with tags or you add listings from the back end then it doesn’t prompt you that you have exceeded the limit and instead just cuts the tag in half and produces a link that displays as a 404.
eg.
If I added a Tag ‘New York Accommodation’ and then reduced the tag limit to 15 it would display on the detail page as ‘New York Accomm’ and the href would be https://mysite.com/*/*/*/new-york-accomm/ but that doesn’t exist because the actual href is https://mysite.com/*/*/*/new-york-accommodation/I am looking for Geodirectory Advanced Search Filters to actually filter / refine results as the a supposed to do. This is a standard function of geodirectory advanced search that is simply broken on my install and I would like to fix it. I AM NOT ASKING YOU TO CUSTOMISE ANYTHING JUST FIX IT SO IT WORKS THE WAY IT IS SUPPOSED TO.
you surely know how a search filter works?? In my case I have 6200 Points of Interest Listings, if I filter those to show only those with disabled access then the search should not return 6200 listings but only those that meet the requirements of being disabled access. THIS IS WHAT IS NOT HAPPENING.
To Prove I have listings with Disabled Access field set to yes please see attached image
the changeset definitely exists so I suspect this is a good place to start looking for a solution as to why it is not getting called up in the URL correctly.
If you can’t work it out yourself can you please refer it to Paolo, Stiofan or even Guust
Thanks
Ok that did fix it but can I ask why you changed it to a character limit?? Its created broken links everywhere…
I’m not asking you to tell me where the setting is to enable advanced searches, this i already know. I’m asking why the advanced search function is completely broken??
If there is anything I can do to make this any clearer please let me know
Thanks
Lets try another one…
This one I used a category filter that is in the main search bar to filter results to the category BBQ but as you can see in the image it has not performed that filter..
The Filter for disabled access is under the cog and has always been there (see Image)
I’m really struggling to find why you can’t see what I see… first of all I just tested the login details and instructions I provided and all works perfectly including having admin access. secondly I tested a few more pages and nothing is working..
here is a link if it helps?

I am referring to advanced search via geodirectory search bar, is it possible that you are referring to filters found on category list pages??
Thanks
This reply has been marked as private.Sorry I Haven’t stumbled across a filter that is actually filtering anything so i thought you wouldn’t have any trouble finding the issue. I attached and Image
I thought it might be an issue because that function is part of the standard install of supreme theme therefore if i delete it from functions.php it will reappear if the theme was updated. Then the function would appear in code snippets plugin and functions.php.
From what I understand supreme theme is a child theme therefore you can’t make a child theme of a child theme and that is the reason for using code snippets plugin. So my understanding is that supreme theme can be updated and when it is functions.php will be updated adding the code i have previously deleted which means there would be 2 copies of the same code.
If that is not the case then that is fine but i just wanted to confirm to be on the safe side
Thanks
