Thanks Stiofan. That helps. So they can bounce between the two ok. For instance if they go above 200, they can opt to go to OSM. Great news. Think I will try OSM on a few smaller ones and see how it goes. Keep google for the travel sites and horse site.
@guust, “It is my understanding it is per project, not per account. But not sure …” – That would be good. Makes sense, otherwise people would just start setting up a new account for every project and using virtual CC’s to enter into it. I wonder if they will pop a 1c purchase or verification through every month to check the card is valid.
Going to email them to get a final answer on that.
Thanks all
Hi there, we are adding all as unclaimed. Someone did claim, but there were two yards with the same name and they claimed the wrong one. Luckily they were relatives of the correct one. Their email address was on the website. Which caused the confusion. One off scenario i am sure. And the odds of it being our very first claim was infinitesimal!
I haven’t had a chance to run the test yet. Will get try it next week for sure. I can’t see any option in the back-end to change the author of a listing. I found a few threads that say where it should be, but it isn’t there. But will look more next week.
Thanks for the help.
Sorry just found this, https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/change-author-for-listing/
So we should go through claim process as admin or get a new subscriber to do the same? Right.
That makes sense, I just had a quick look at the listing. In admin and on front page, can’t see an option to change the Author? Is it in a different location?
Ok great, I’ll run a test to see if that’s the case. Will create listing as admin, then claim as a new standard subscriber. I am pretty sure this is what we did, but will do again just to check.
thanks
oh yeah. Good idea. We will add those, thanks!
No worries on this now, we ended up going another way. But still would be good to know where it is, in case we need to do it in future. Thanks
OK will retry it thanks.
Thanks yes sorry, i should have explained. I meant the browser cache for the map. We have used functions to set not to cache while building it, and then to expire the map as (places will be added daily) every 6 hours. Will suit us perfectly.
Actually no, i didn’t do anything. BUT because of your comment it made me do another check. I used a browser i hadn’t used before to check the site and there they were!
So if anybody else has this issue. Even after adding changes or dummy data. They need to clear the browser cache, then reload the home page. I did that on google chrome, and they showed up a treat.
So thanks for all the help.
Side note, off topic sort of. I had a look through the directory setup. I couldn’t see anything about clearing the cache of home page map. Is there any? I am going to got through the files to see if there is a way to update the map cache after new businesses added or even daily.
Sorry will be a few questions coming up. Will scan help files first thoroughly! I just realized we bought the 4 month package as a trial and it expires in 8 days… and of course we haven’t got round to testing it so need to get my lazy A** into gear.
I am going to be asked about the renewal at the end of month I am sure!
Just a quick question. I have deleted the demo data and manually added a place. Changed the functions file. Now it shows on the yards place on map,
http://www.liveryyards.com/places/livery-stables/
but not on home page.
Something I am missing?
http://www.liveryyards.com/Got ya, How you create relevant listings for the region selected as you need to create address records on the fly or you would need to have to have static addresses which wouldn’t work for local place.
Awesome thanks for explaining. That means it only affects dummy data, so I will get someone to manually enter our records for building. No worries at all.
Thanks for the help and explaining
SimonSorry, i don’t understand fully. You want us to open the API key to non-restricted use (exploitable)? Or do you mean we haven’t added the domain correctly into the referrers. We have added all domains/sub-domains etc etc into the referrers and it seems to be working well for other map calls etc. It is only restricted to domains we are using, so that should be OK right? Or is geo-directory calling from somewhere other than our website?
I can make the changes to functions ok. Will try those now
This reply has been marked as private.Also if i just delete the dummy data, and add locations manually (or others by add listing) will they show up?
