We’re using the GD > Search widget in all sidebars on GD pages. Regular search search widget is active in main menu but that’s not the area from which we’re searching during our tests. Also using a plugin called Relevanssi. Admin details below. Thanks for any feedback!
That worked, thanks! Still not entirely sure why the active categories all used the default pin.png but when we try to make any changes to the category it requires us to associate it with the default pin.png. Will this apply only to the batch of categories we imported or for all categories moving forward, any time a new one is added or a change is made? Also, if we do choose to use custom category markers in the future, is there a preferred image?
Appreciate your help!
You mentioned also to try GD Booster. I’m sure it will make the directory faster, do you know if it will provide caching for the entire site (assuming we disable/uninstall existing 3rd party caching solution currently in use)? Thanks!
So to clarify, if we are just trying to change from category to subcategory and plan to use the default marker, we need to “upload” it each time? It is set correctly as the default in GD > Design > Map as “pin.png” and also downloaded and re-uploaded pin.png to set as default and still won’t allow a category modification. If I am needing to upload the same pin.png each time we update a category, it seems like I am doing it wrong?
Thanks so much for the quick reply. I understand that the site uses quite a few plugins but most/all active are in use. We are using a plug-in that allows for only certain ones to load on certain pages, but with a somewhat complex news site there are a lot things to add (weather, contests, coupons, classifieds, etc.) and hopefully WordPress is built to handle them.
With a site in production, it’s always a challenge to deactivate plugins to troubleshoot but if that is the best suggestion then we will try it. Just surprised that we would be the only one experiencing inability to access certain drop-down menus in the admin panel after the update. Will make our changes on mobile for now to get them done, then try as you suggested and let you know.
This reply has been marked as private.We really haven’t changed anything and listings worked fine when we imported them and categories. It’s only asking for us to upload a Category icon now that we are changing some to become subcategories. Maybe I’m not clear about what is a category icon? Is there a default that is assigned and we can simple re-associate the image? These are not the custom map markers that some are using, correct? Would appreciate any clarification. Thanks!
