We have not yet seen one that is GDPR compliant but will let you know if we do.

Google Analytics won’t show up for both Admin or listing owner.

hello Vlad,

thanks for sharing that. We have a task to look again at v5. We did earlier and it was not ready, but we will check it again for V2.

Thanks for letting us know!

The user does not have access to WP Admin on the site where GD is installed.

Please check ad grant access. It appears to be a different network.

The snippet contains instructions, you can read them here:

https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/redirecting-the-login-page/

It is a customization, but a needed one if you use a different plugin for login/registration but still want users to login and add listings. You may need to hire a developer if you need help with it.

Homepage:
a. How do i change this background?

Change the featured image of the page used for GD Home: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/supreme-directory-overview/

b. I planning to add Locations Menus in the center of the homepage banner. e.g When i click Texas it will show all listings under in Texas, and if i click on New York it will show all listings under in NY .. so on and so fort. What’s the best way to do this?

You can do that manually by adding custom links to those location pages, or you can use the location switcher. Visit GD > Design > Navigation to see options: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/multilocations/#gd

c. and under each ‘locations, where it shows the listings under that location’, i want to have a search filter in the sidebar. just like this http://prntscr.com/jpitnv
Is this doable? so it will search for the Main category and sub category. just to filter the search under that location

You can add a GD Search widget to the Home Page sidebar.

d. Will this work well with Elementor? I want to customise my Homepage.

Elementor cannot be used on the GD Home page, but you can use a different page for your wordpress home page and use elementor there, along with a few select GD shortcode or widgets. The GD Home page is the home page of the directory.

Here is the error in the site console:

Google Maps JavaScript API error: RefererNotAllowedMapError https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#referer-not-allowed-map-error

Please follow the directions here to adjust your key’s security policy: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/add-google-api-key/

See #11

Under credentials for the key created, select HTTP referrers, and then add *.mysite.com/* in the HTTP referrers field, and then Save:

Hello

It is true that we have some examples that use Beaver Builder, though this is because it is free, not because it is recommended.

Builders cannot be used on any of the GD Templates or pages within the page content area because GD content is inserted into those page content areas by the plugin, and that will overrides all content including builder content. In some cases, when builder content is inserted into the pages, there may be a conflict and so the solution is to remove the builder content.

Builders can be used on the site front page or any other WordPress page, though, and each builder usually has some form of “insert shortcode” functionality to allow you to use GD shortcodes on other pages and posts without interference.

With Elementor, there are no specific issues, but certainly Elementor, as with other builders, should not be used on GD pages.
