How many categories are your listings in? How many categories do you want? Thousands?
There might be a possibility to import them straight into the database using phpMyAdmin but they are not just simply into the one table, you also need to establish the structure.
I cannot think of any tool that imports categories directly into WP, and GD uses the same WP functions.
You might have some luck searching at https://wordpress.org/ and I’ll alert the others too, maybe they have brighter ideas how you can import categories.See my answer in the other post.
Once you set up the basics, you can import thousands of records at the push of a button. But you have to set up the basics, and your records have to be able to be processed so they need to be in a certain format. There is no way round that.
It might just be a matter of moving columns and renaming etc, and making the most of tools out there to convert addresses into lats and lng.How many different categories are there?
There is no Google map solution that can show listings without lat and lng.
Have a look at the documentation for a link of how you can bulk convert locations into lat and lng.If you install the MultiLocations addon, listings can be added anywhere, it will only be locked if you use settings to lock it to the default location only.
You should not upload locations by themselves, you upload a listing together with its location.
I doubt you will find any solution that allows you to import any database, regardless of its content, and converts non-existing data to existing data.
That should not happen, see the demo for the way it should behave.
You are using the same theme as the demo site.
http://wpgeo.directory/Your URLs needs fixing too, all your links go to IP-address/~username/ instead of your full domain name.
You need to change your permalinks etc too.
Please review the installation guide at http://docs.wpgeodirectory.com/basic-installation/Let us know if you get stuck.
You add cities as you add listings.
Your users will add the city as part of their submission.
Or you can add the city as you upload the listings by CSV.
Adding cities without listings only creates empty pages.
Add a listing on the demo site, and you’ll see how the system adds your city: http://wpgeo.directory/Can you explain what SIC codes are?
You should create the categories first, and then you can upload the listings into the correct categories using the CSV file.
Can you explain why that would not work for you?
This might be handy to understand the basic layout of GD pages:
http://docs.wpgeodirectory.com/layout
You’ll see the bottom section spreads across the page.You can reorganise the layout of that page by changing the listing-detail.php template.
http://docs.wpgeodirectory.com/customizing-geodirectory-templates/Move
do_action( 'geodir_sidebar_detail_bottom_section', '' );to just after
do_action( 'geodir_article_close', 'details-page');Example on my test site:
http://goldroo.net/attractions/trades/bob-the-builder/Misread your question, I thought you want to search everything at the same time, which you can do with WP search, but it will not return the results of GD listings in the GD search page.
I guess it might be possible to add an extra option by copying the widget and adding your own code.
I’ll alert the others to your question too.Documentation is still a work in progress, and the Payment and Prices plugin is not documented yet. Feel free to use the forum for anything you cannot find at

It needs to hide the listing: YES
or even better the contact details from showing: NOThis reply has been marked as private.Stiofan, neither do I. But Peter(?) says so, and without trying on his site, I cannot recreate either.
I look after another site where I do not have any problem at all after updating.
I can see all pages in the backend and use GDF Modern child there”
http://www.2cv.com.au/That would be very tricky if possible at all.
Why not add GD Search widget and normal WP Search widget and title them:
“Search listings” or “Search whole site”.Can you clarify what you installed?
You can just drag the marker on the map and the address should fill in.
OR
You can enter the street address, choose a country, start typing in a region, same for city, and then click on “Set on map”.
See example attached.
