Removing “Trails” as the parent category didn’t seem to sort things out with the three categories in the Trails CPT.
Perhaps I’m misunderstanding how the map display works when you have a listing assigned to several categories.
For example, I thought that if I have a trail assigned to the categories Hiking, Mountain Biking and Horseback, it will display with the individual map icons for each of those categories, correct?
Or, will it only display the map icon for the default category checked on the listing?
Again, sorry if I’m asking the obvious.
Sorry about that. I was thinking that because the page was published you could get around the coming soon page.
The coming soon page is disabled.
Thanks for your patience.
Because I did it wrong. 🙂 Didn’t seem right to select “None” as parent category.
I went through and deleted “Trails” as the parent category for all the trails. But only 1 or 2 “Biking” and “Horseback” icons show up. Numerous trails are also in the Mountain Biking category.
If I’m understanding correctly, each category should show up on the map?
Thanks for your patient help.
Hi Paolo,
Try this link: http://adventurebrevard.com/location/
Trails is the parent category, with a signpost for the map icon. Each subcategory has it’s own map icon – a bike for Biking, a hiker for Hiking and a horse-and-rider for Horseback.
Most trails are multi-use, so they are in at least two of the three subcategories.
There’s no change on the map when you untick the categories in the map box.
It’s totally possible that I set things up incorrectly. :-/ I’m still figuring this out.
Thanks for your patient help.

Thanks, Paolo.
Appreciate it.Marsha
That worked. Thanks!
Will that happen with upgrades in the future?
Paolo,
Thanks for taking a look. I will follow up with the plugin developer.
Cheers,
MarshaGuust,
No worries. 🙂
Because the icons are images, could I manually add them to the detail page or sidebar, possibly using an html field?
Thanks again.
Marsha
Thanks Guust.
Here’s one URL as an example. http://adventurebrevard.com/trails/brevard/hiking/bracken-preserve/
Do I have to do this for every listing or is there something global I can change?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Guust,
I guess I wasn’t very clear. I know I can upload one icon to the category to be used in the map legend, but what if I want to upload additional icons for the subcategories to be displayed on the detail page but not on the map legend, such as for Trails above?
Does that make sense?
Thanks for your time.
One more question: Will that change be over-ridden when I update GeoDirectory in the future?
Thanks!
Marsha
Thanks Guust.
Because most people who are accustomed to working in WordPress are used to having the revisions feature enabled, may I suggest you include a warning somewhere within GD that revisions across someone’s entire WordPress site are disabled by default? Or maybe I missed it.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Guust,
Thanks for this.
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I’m still not sure what size the default thumbnail image I upload for a category should be? For instance, a default image that appears at the top of the category listings for all Hotels, for example.
Hope that makes sense.
Thanks again,
MarshaThat clarifies it. Thanks Guust!
Hi Guust,
So, when it says,
fill the main fields and address with the same data as the listing.
that means from the business listing into the event fields, yes?
Sorry. Everything is a listing so I just need a bit more clarification.
Thanks for this.
Marsha
