Are you suggesting — in above example — that I create TWO identical Roofing Painter categories, one with Parent of Painters, one with Parent of Roofing?

Thank you, Kiran, that did indeed add stuff beneath the top Featured Image Hero.

Couldn’t seem to make it work to put a link around that featured image, though.

This was my fix (done in localhost, eoh stuff is so I could search for changes.)

Realized I actually needed to be in Supreme Directory’s geodirectory-compatibility.php to effect this change.

From there, realized my “target” html/code was in sup_add_feat_img_head.

Instead of doing this the very proper way, I (my bad) played with editing the geodirectory-compatibility.php, since I’m playing on localhost.

I COULD have included this HUGE chunk of code in my functions.php, but that seemed like overkill to me. Either way, the same alterations would be made to the code.

First, I erred and tried to put an href link around the featured-img div. Not right.

Then, I realized that the link needed to be around the featured-area, instead.

To implement, I did the following — just in case someone else is trying to do this.

Above the <div class=”featured-area”> is a PHP code area.

Into that I inserted the following to check if there IS a website stored for the detail listing place.
If there’s a listing, we can do a link.

Here’s the mini-code:

 if(isset($post->geodir_website) && $post->geodir_website){
          // echo 'There is a website - EOH';
          // echo 'Website value is ' . $post->geodir_website;
          $add_a_link_to_featured_image_hero = TRUE;
      }
      else{
        // echo 'There is NOT a website - EOH';
        $add_a_link_to_featured_image_hero = FALSE;
    }

    //Whoopee, a website URL exists!
    if ($add_a_link_to_featured_image_hero)
    {
        echo '<a href="' . esc_url($post->geodir_website) . '" target="_blank" class="eoh">';
    }

Then, you also have to search for the string “sd-detail-details end” — that’s where you put the END of the href — presuming a website was stored.

You check if you ADDED the start of the href with the $add_a_link_to_featured_image_hero variable.

That section now looks like this:

 <!-- container end -->
                               <?php do_action('sd-detail-details-container-after'); ?>
                           </div> <?php if ($add_a_link_to_featured_image_hero){echo '</a>';}?>
                           <!-- sd-detail-details end -->
                           <?php do_action('sd-detail-details-after'); ?>

Hope this helps somebody!

Kiran, you got me in the right area to start looking. Thank you!

Is there an easier way than the above, do you think?

Any ideas on way ‘remove’ the description field completely for free packages?

Am I using the DropDown values improperly? What is their purpose?

1. Limit to what shows on Listing page (before Read More) — or what shows on Detail Page (in Profile tab)?

Logically, would think you’d be chopping what is saved in database?

2. I would love to wait until V2 comes online, but know you’re keeping that under wraps until fully debugged and tested. Since we don’t know when that will be, I think it would be better for now to know how to hide the_content (assume that’s Description) in some sort of hook.

3. I just tried to put a div and class around my little geodir_show_custom_text_constant_for_free_price_package function — idea was I could then delete everything on the tab EXCEPT for that little string, but :not wasn’t working properly (or I was USING improperly!)

Thanks for sticking with me on this query!
