    @stiofan

    FYI I have made an example how it looks on the search page (see screenshot).

    Each is a different checkbox customfield as described above (dont be confused by the same icons, just havent decided yet which to take).

    Hi Kiran,

    I could call 2-3 custom fields from ‘custom fields’ tab to ‘advanced search’ tab and then the error occured again.

    I had a look to do it myself and clicked on database “wp_mggeodir_custom_field” and I can see the column datatype. However, most of them (ie. all the checkboxes which are the majority of custom fields) are actually not VARCHAR but TINYINT. Should I change these to TEXT as well to solve the problem?

    I dont want to play around as I dont know really know what I’m doing here, so haven’t tested anything.

    Cheers
    David

    EDIT:
    I also noticed just now that all custom fields have disappeared from the search page! Not sure what triggered that? I cant recall to have changed anything apart from renaming the remaining VARCHAR to TEXT

    @kiran thank you very much!!

    i will try this evening if I can now call the remaining custom fields from place settings tab to the adanvces search tab, so that they appear in the advanced search option field on the search page.

    When you have a chance, could you explain how one changes the data type from VARCHAR to TEXT?

    Will this problem be solved in V2?

    Thank you
    Best

    @guust apologies, I had missunderstood your advice on #4. I changed it and it’s looking good now!! Thank you so much for your guidance!!

    The only outstanding points are now 2/2.1 and 3.2 (see screenshot to be posted seperately):

    2 show the result of the rating (overall + subratings), currently only ‘overall’ rating is shown in the wrong place
    2.1 move ‘“write review”/send enquiry/send to friend’ below it
    3.2 show custom fields (created in Place Settings)

    For which I understand Stiofan has code snippets that could solve this?

    @stiofan
    I have 30-40 custom fields (type: text/checkbox) and checkboxes are converted to icons via CSS on the search page. These custom fields are for example: does the listing have x y z and if the checkbox is ticked (in listing settings) it is active and shows an icon while the Standard checkbox text (‘yes’) is hidden. It works well for the search page. So in short there are multiple custom fields looking like this:

    custom field 1 (text): custom field 1 (checkbox) custom field 2 (checkbox) custom field 3 (checkbox) ..
    custom field 2 (text): custom field 1 (checkbox) custom field 2 (checkbox) custom field 3 (checkbox) ..
    custom field 3 (text): custom field 1 (checkbox) custom field 2 (checkbox) custom field 3 (checkbox) ..

    It is currently not final on the search page so that’s not a good example currently, so if the above is unclear, please let me know then I’ll finalise this evening on the search page so you can see before thinking about a code.

    Please let me know if you still wish WP logins and I’ll provide!

    Thank you both very much!

    @ Guust

    .sd .sd-detail-info .sd-contacts
    .sd .sd-detail-cta .geodir-addtofav, .sd-cta-favsandshare

    worked, thanks

    These didnt do anything to the cats at the bottom sidebare I wanted to get rid off but could be tageted with .gd_placecategory

    For the benefit for anyone else trying to make changes:
    – the large picture can be hidden with targeting .featured-area
    – the probably easiest way to remove the GD footer is by targeting .site-footer

    @stiofan

    Thanks! I consider the following (in order) most important (most have been raised in the request list I think):

    1) booking function for visitors – the value of a GD site depends on what is offered, only reviews is little value. To boost value a booking system would be great that allows users to purchase a service e.g. buy tickets

    2) Affiliate/voucher system – if booking isnt possible on site, there should at least be the possibility to offer vouchers via an affiliate system that links and tracks to an external site of the affiliate partner

    3) Goole import – google has valueable data (incl ratings) for locations. There should be a function to import the data to a place. Even if there are no reviews for a place it would be great to at least see the google ratings and reviews.

    However, the by far and above all most important aspect I consider customisation, which I understand will be addressed.

    Hope this helps!

    EDIT:
    Actually one question: do you already know how the transition from current GD version to V2 will work for customers?

    @ Guust, thank you for the CSS hints, should have thought of it myself! Will let you know if it worked!

    @ Stiofan:

    3.1: This is not possible by default, but could be done in several ways with code snippets. (this will likely be possible in GDv2 by default)

    4. same as above.

    That’s great to hear! Do you have a code snippet that would move the content accordingly?

    5. Excluding the photos tab should do that automatically.

    7. Same as #7

    Unfortunately, it didn’t! I did as suggested by Guust tick “Show as list instead of tabs” under GD Design -> detail. I have made a screenshot that is attached.
