Hi Guust

I don’t have any of the plugins installed on the list, the only plugins I have (apart from GD) are Code Snippets (which I installed after reading a suggestion on here) and Duplicator. I’ve tried de-activating both but still no luck.

— Just tried changing the permalink structure (I have to set it to ‘plain’ because it won’t work with ‘post name’ on local server) and it works okay although the display is much bigger.

Hi Kor, I did see this but it doesn’t have the option to place it where I’d like. I want it to go just under the main content of the place/post.

One solution would be to just add it into the description when creating a place (i.e. the biggest text box on the page when adding a place) – but this would mean lots of copying and pasting, or typing etc. every time.

I’d like to be able to make a list of ‘amenities’ if you will, and a checkbox allows me to quickly tick off the features that each location has. I’d also like to adjust how they are displayed, for example maybe have bullets for each list item.

On the live site it works fine, but on localhost it will only work if I set permalinks to “plain” – GD docs say this should be set to “post name”, but with post name it doesn’t work.

What will happen if I just leave permalinks as plain?

Update:

I have found that if I restore WordPress permalinks to “plain” – it works okay.

But stops working again when I choose to do “post name,” as suggested in the GD guide.

Is there something extra I need to do after changing the permalink type to post name?

Thanks, this is fixed now.

Is it possible to remove the “Location” > “City” from breadcrumbs? As it’s single-city these aren’t of much use.

Also, is the neighbourhood page just a replica of the homepage? E.g. it will be the same layout, same widgets etc. as the city one, or can it be modified separately?

Thanks, this seems to have worked fine on first glance.

Should I be worried that if the word ‘place’ appears in any of the place profiles that it will change to bar?

All three plugins I used claim to put user role selection on the signup page, that is what I want. I can’t find the feature in BuddyPress, I can find the option to add additional fields but not the option to make one of those fields user role selection.

Searching online I’ve found this code:

<?php
//1. Add a new form element...
add_action( 'register_form', 'myplugin_register_form' );
function myplugin_register_form() {

    global $wp_roles;

    echo '<select name="role" class="input">';
    foreach ( $wp_roles->roles as $key=>$value ):
       echo '<option value="'.$key.'">'.$value['name'].'</option>';
    endforeach;
    echo '</select>';
}

//2. Add validation.
add_filter( 'registration_errors', 'myplugin_registration_errors', 10, 3 );
function myplugin_registration_errors( $errors, $sanitized_user_login, $user_email ) {

    if ( empty( $_POST['role'] ) || ! empty( $_POST['role'] ) && trim( $_POST['role'] ) == '' ) {
         $errors->add( 'role_error', __( '<strong>ERROR</strong>: You must include a role.', 'mydomain' ) );
    }

    return $errors;
}

//3. Finally, save our extra registration user meta.
add_action( 'user_register', 'myplugin_user_register' );
function myplugin_user_register( $user_id ) {

   $user_id = wp_update_user( array( 'ID' => $user_id, 'role' => $_POST['role'] ) );
} ?>

But placing it in functions.php didn’t do anything and I’m not sure where else to put it.
