Thanks Alex, that took care of it….
April 15, 2019 at 3:36 pm in reply to: Listings only shows short excerpt – can this be increased? #480876Not sure if this is the best way, but put the following css and its better..
Would be just right if I could get ‘…’ at the end of the excerpt.body ul.geodir-category-list-view li .gd-list-item-right .geodir-field-post_content .gd-read-more-fade, body ul.geodir-category-list-view li .gd-list-item-right .geodir-post-content-container .gd-read-more-fade {
background-image: none;
position: unset;
margin: 32px;
}
.gd-read-more {
background-color: transparent;
}April 15, 2019 at 2:25 pm in reply to: Listings only shows short excerpt – can this be increased? #480861If the position of the read more is a big deal, I could live with the transition color being white instead of grey…
April 15, 2019 at 1:51 pm in reply to: Listings only shows short excerpt – can this be increased? #480844It took away the grey….
But now the ‘read more’ overwrites the last line of description.
See screenprint.April 15, 2019 at 12:55 pm in reply to: Listings only shows short excerpt – can this be increased? #480824Changed my theme and working fine now…
But one last question…Is there anyway to get rid of that grey transition before the ‘read more’?
I tried playing around with css but suspect it may be in the design controls somewhere….
Thanks!
RichardApril 15, 2019 at 12:26 pm in reply to: Listings only shows short excerpt – can this be increased? #480809Thanks! I’ll take a look at the design elements – looks like they will make design much easier… I had taken a break from GD for a while to try other directory providers – but with version 2 GD is now the easiest to use so I’m back with you guys.
Thanks for the heads-up on the theme problem. This is a very old theme which is not used on my other sites, so I’ll upgrade and resolve that issue.
Thanks for the great support!

I changed as suggested, and found that if I put the limit=”0″ the entire description is there…
I set the limit to “50” and it displays the text including the ‘read more’.
I changed it back to “0” and it displays the full text.Only problem is that the description duplicates in the area just below with about 40 words, the gray shading and then has the ‘read more’.
In both cases, if you click on the ‘read more’ – it navigates to an error message.
Warning: include(/home/caribbe0/public_html/sanjuangayguide.com/wp-content/plugins/geodirectory/templates/ ): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/caribbe0/public_html/sanjuangayguide.com/wp-includes/template-loader.php on line 77

Two questions:
1. How do I resolve the error message.
2. How do I eliminate the duplication (see screen shot example with limit=”0″)Thanks!
RichardApril 14, 2019 at 2:45 pm in reply to: Listings only shows short excerpt – can this be increased? #480634Hi Support, thanks for the info – but I have no idea where I would change this.
Can you point me in the right direction?
Where do I find the GD Archive template?

I’m using the GD > Listings widget and hopefully this change will add a field for number of words… (which seems that it would be useful to everyone, not as a custom change).

Thanks – this looks like it will take care of the issue on all of my GD websites if I can figure out how to change it.
RichardApril 13, 2019 at 11:31 pm in reply to: Listings only shows short excerpt – can this be increased? #480570Is this something I can change in CSS?
or where do I find it?September 26, 2016 at 7:32 pm in reply to: Top section and right section display even though disabled in Design #273434I had put 100% and not just 100 –
The text on the screen says to put in % so I added in the input field.Changed to just 100 and looks like its OK now…. Thanks!
September 26, 2016 at 3:28 pm in reply to: Top section and right section display even though disabled in Design #273167Hi Guys,
I finally got everything figured out with Geo Framework/Directory and Beaver Builder… all seems to be playing well together now…
I just have one layout situation I can’t figure out how to resolve – since it seems to be a browser issue:I have my listings page set up as a full width page where I use widgets to display content:
http://ronniesproperties.com/listings-san-juan-apartment-and-condo-rental/When I use Safari – the listings page is full width and if I click on any category it is full width.
However, if I use Chrome – the listings page is full width and if I click on any category – the right sidebar is on the page – so the category listings only take up the left side of the page. In listings I have the right sidebar unchecked.
Is this just a browser issue – or have I done something on my side that can be corrected?
Screen prints of same page in Safari and Chrome attached showing the difference in layout:
September 23, 2016 at 7:49 pm in reply to: Top section and right section display even though disabled in Design #272158Got it…. that should work fine…. Thanks!
September 22, 2016 at 8:11 pm in reply to: Top section and right section display even though disabled in Design #271453Thanks! I’d rather keep the header and be able to put some widgets in the right side – the existing header takes up a lot of real estate and it would be great to put phone number, ad slot and button in that area – but I don’t see how I could do it….
I was thinking to hide your header and just create one in Beaver Builder – but as you confirm – I couldn’t use that on GD listing pages….
Is there any way that I can put some widget areas in your standard header?
Thanks!
September 22, 2016 at 1:53 pm in reply to: Top section and right section display even though disabled in Design #271161OK – I found the link In WP for the theme options – I didn’t realize this was separate from the plugin options. I see lots of styling options – but is there a way to just not display the theme’s header? I don’t see an option – so tried a few novice CSS changes and nothing worked.
I could use the theme’s header – if I could add a few widget areas instead of the long blank space… but I also don’t see a way to do this.
If there is a way to hide the theme header, I can use this – or it may be easier just to switch back to Headway and build my own header area with widgets.
BTW – this whole thread started due to a conflict between Beaver Builder and Geo Directory. The guys at Beaver Builder did some research and found that both plugins are using the same WordPress “the_content()” function that is causing conflicts.
I really liked using the combo of GD and BB – but looks like I’ll dump BB for now on sites where I need GD. Thanks!
Note from Danny at Beaver Builder:
“…I’ve spoken to one of my colleagues who has more experience with the GD plugin. He informed me that the problem is likely a conflict as GD uses the WordPress “the_content()” function similar to Beaver Builder and therefore, you won’t be able to use BB on GD pages…” -
