    Stacey,

    keywords in URLs (slug) only carries a little weight compared to title tag and the content on the page.

    That said, you should generally use a hyphen (-) rather than an underscore (_) for any kind of SEO value. While Google has gotten better, historically, Google would not see “key_word” as “key word” or even “keyword”, so unless someone was searching literally for “key_word” it wouldn’t show up. However, “key word” or “keyword” was most likely used on the page and in the title tag, so it would still gain any signaling from there.

    This is one of the key reasons WordPress defaults to hyphens as word separators in URLs.

    cheers

    @stiofan,

    Just wanted to check and see if there is an official ruling here? I have a number of custom fields that will span across all CPTs and for ease of management, would prefer to use the same HTML variable name across the board if possible.

    cheers

    It has to do with the window framing. You can see how the selection box and scrollbar drop “below” the frame. Looks like the issue is that there are multiple containers here, some with overflow set to hidden, others to scroll.

    Initially used Firebug to change height

    
    
    .geodir_optionform {
        min-height: 550px;

    to be able to select,

    But I think the actual issue is overflow set to hidden here:

    .claimlisting_fields .inner_content_tab_main

    cheers

    @guust,

    Thanks. It would be great to get a confirmation from Stiofan if we can. Actually looks like I’ll be uploading a little over 7,000 records, many of which include 2-3 additional fields.

    You mentioned phpMyAdmin….not that I have any idea how to go about it, but I’ll figure it out if need be…

    I wasn’t sure what all could be uploaded/created and/or modified via phpMyAdmin/SQL bulk upload since I’m not sure what the inter-relations may be…if I upload new listings into a detail table, is that standalone or does the system need/expect additional data that might be in some other table.

    Specifically I think I’d be most interested in:
    1 – uploading/modifying listings
    2 – uploading/modifying pricing packages
    3 – uploading/modifying CPT custom fields and settings

    Cheers

    Thanks Guust.

    Not sure what happened. …category names, slugs, default image, map markers….most of those “disappeared.” And that included CPTs that I wasn’t even trying to CSV upload into.

    Later I discovered that a lot of the form field settings for the CPTs reverted back to default settings as well.

    Actually spent around 6 hours the other night setting up all of the CPTs. That included time figuring out what all the settings did and the different settings and creating a master spreadsheet to make this mostly copy-paste–highly, highly recommend this for everyone!

    Not taking nearly as much time to rebuild these, but still painful and this is going to be huge issue if these continue to disappear or something else is wiping them out.

    cheers

    Well, I’ve solved at least part of this…

    key note for US sites…if you preset locations, make sure the state form matches…abbreviation vs. spelled out.

    Thanks. I accidentally copy and pasted one in and forgot to change it, but it went through okay.

    So, I wanted to check and see if there is any further confirmation though since I’d prefer to avoid creating different names for essentially the same fields across different CPTs, but also want to avoid issues if they do truly require unique names.

    cheers

    @stiofan

    Was thinking more about this and in playing with all the fields, I think a “simple” solution for my initial issue is not showing an unchecked field.

    Between the radio button and the select/tick types, there is already the ability to show a True/False, Selected/Unselected messaging.

    A checkbox then should only appear when it is selected. In that way, it isn’t really on/off, but on/NULL.

    Cheers

    Follow up:

    To change the background for the complete rating/review comment section:

    
    
    #comments div.gdreview_section {
    	background-color: #FFFFFF;
    }

    And to note, unfortunately the !important is required on the geodir_ratingAverage above due to the color being an inline style.

    Resolved!

    It was the front wall blocking the confirmation. Status is now changed within GD and confirmation of payment email delivered.

    Thanks for all the help

    cheers
