    Hello!

    I will ask a developer to take a look at your site, if you like.

    We have not had other reports, though. Have you updated your Easy Updates plugin to the latest?

    Please reply with your wp admin details and site URL if you’d like us to take a look.

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    the url structure is domain/cpt-name/feed

    Examples: http://wpgeo.directory/attractions/feed/ or http://wpgeo.directory/hotels/feed/

    it also works for category : http://wpgeo.directory/hotels/5-stars/feed/ (5-stars is the category)

    Let us know how that works for you

    Hello!

    Have you also looked at https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/gd-search/ ?

    The sort options are “per CPT”

    Visit a CPT and visit Sorting. Add your sort options there.

    Featured or “Sitcky” is a Payment Manager option for packages. A listing package that is “Featured” will make the listing float to the top when the package is active. The common use is to make a listing Fatured for a specific durection and auto-expire the package after 30/60/X days.

    We are always looking for feedback on how we can improve UIUX options, so let us know how these work for you and what you think might help even more.

    Are you using “Near Me” results? How is that working for you?

    Hello!

    I was working with another EU member this week.

    I shared that I was able to complete the process to import with Google sheets.

    When the member tried it with Google sheets, they succeeded.

    I recommend you give it a try also. CSV can be tricky, and I was happy for some progress, regardless of the tool.

    Let me know if that works for you.

    Hello,

    as mentioned, that is a customization.

    Here is the documentation on the function that we can provide.

    Hello!

    Some progress, great!

    So, the errors are from blank title?

    How about “Replace Title 1” and fill-down so the next row is “Replace Title 2”.

    Hello!

    GeoDirectory is definitely ‘targeted to a drill down location type of directory.

    Once your user chooses a location, as long as they stay on the GD pages, the location will be preserved/remembered and they can click around to see more related pages specific to the location they are interested in.

    I think you would be creating unnecessary complexity with 5 CPTs. That choice would probably limit your options in a wide variety of ways down the road. If you are really concerned about being specific with a place, I would lean towards making a site for each state instead of using 5 CPTs on one site.

    Categories are really important for SEO, and so are all of the GD options. Instead of adding the work with CPTs, focus on the extra information you can add for SEO using the GD options on categories and locations, using GD fully and completely, with a single place/CPT for the type of listing you have, using categories to differentiate them.

    That approach will limit the complexity and keep you focused on high impact details. You can always export the listings and re-import later into a new CPT if you really need to.

    Hello!

    General WordPress support is beyond the scope of support.

    There may be hundreds of links on your site pointing to http:

    That said, yes, if you have an SSL cert, then you should change those settings to read https,not http

    Hello!

    Those are great ideas, and you can add them as a new feature request: https://wpgeodirectory.com/requests/

    1. At this time the Popular Locations widget and shortcode show only cites and don’t have any additional properties: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/location-manager-shortcodes/#pop
    2. They also don’t show counts.

    As I said, though, I think those are both good ideas, though. Have you checked out the Dashboard Addon? That has some counts in it, and we are moving in that direction.

    The Location Switcher Shortcode may be closer to your needs: [gd_location_switcher]

    Hello!

    That is the CSS recommended for our themes.

    Please share your URL in a private reply so we can take a look at your site.

    Without a doubt there will be a CSS element that will hide that aspect of the search bar.

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    you can do that with CSS.

    
    
    
    .single-gd_place .featured-area {
        display: none!important;
    }
    

    Insert into Gd > Design > Scripts > Custom Style CSS

    Hello!

    The chrome tools panel has a mixed content error report

    Mixed Content: The page at ‘https://publicties.com/’ was loaded over a secure connection, but contains a form which targets an insecure endpoint ‘http://publicties.com/’. This endpoint should be made available over a secure connection.

    You can use the Better Search Replace plugin to update your site’s URL across the database.

    Change http://mysite.com
    To https://mysite.com

    There is also several plugins on WordPress that can help you overcome this issue and potential future mixed content errors, too:

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-ssl/

    Your site is looking good, without any other Mixed Content errors.

    Hello!

    That setting is not included with WordPress as far as we know.

    That said, GD requires that images are in the wp-content/uploads folder, and that the option to organize uploads by date is selected.

    https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/basic-installation/#media

    Changing the folder location would be a customization.
