    Hi,

    without GD booster it would be worst because instead of loading 2 big files that combine all your CSS and JS (making only 2 calls to the server), you would load them individually. The weight would be identical in KB, but you would make several calls to the server and apache can only serve 4 requests at a time. So while the 1st 4 are loading, the other will sit waiting.

    That’s why I told you to reduce plugins, so it will reduce the number of script loaded and the size of the GD booster file will drop.

    In the page you analyzed there are no visible images, because you removed both the slider and the photos tab. However the listings have pictures uploaded and the page is still loading them.

    You should edit the listing and remove all images. What’s the point of having images attached to the listing, if you are not showing them in the front end?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    no that is not possible, BuddyPress track posts and comments only by default.
    For anything else a customization would be required.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    iThemes security is not compatible with GD as far as I know, please move to Wordfence that is compatible.

    Sucuri you will need to ask them to white list :

    http://yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/geodir_gd_booster/booster_js.php
    http://yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/geodir_gd_booster/booster_css.php

    Let us know if this helps.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    GD doesn’t do any of that, it simply allows subscribers to add and edit listings too. Changing role only to users who submits a listing will require a customization.

    Thanks

    The new PO file is in the new plugin. You can merge the new file with your existing one using Poedit.

    Please see this: http://www.marketpressthemes.com/blog/how-to-merge-two-po-files-using-poedit/

    Thanks

    You must set your default location to that city and not everywhere in GD >> MultiLocations.

    Than set the map to auto-zoom.

    Thanks

    Just FYI, you just need to disable Rocket Loader. Not all CloudFlare.

    Thanks

    HI,

    the heaviest thing on your page are images. If you are not disaplying them, why making the page load them? Wouldn’t it be better to remove them fromt the back end?

    You’d save almost half of the page weight. Another thing you could try to do is to remove any plugin that is not strictly necessary. (how many do you have installed?)

    Stiofan is working on optimizing the scripts of the details page. Soon we will have some improvements on our side there too.

    As far as your competitor website goes, that is a custom application which has been built to do only what it does. It is also probably using a big cluster of dedicated servers with a CDN and not a single VPS and it has a full team of developers working on it.

    Looks like a million dollar operation… For as much as we love our product, it is not reasonable to even try comparing them.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    at the moment the plugin doesn’t provide a JSON API. It is something we are barely starting to work on.

    It will take weeks (possibly months) before we will have something ready for that.

    Thanks

    the margin will need the !important tag as well.

    margin: 0 !important;

    Hi,

    please disable CLoudFlare Ricketloader option. It is not compatible with GD.

    Let us know if that was the culprit.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    unfortunately this option is not available at the moment for the events widget.

    I’ll ask developer how hard it would be to add all the filters we have for places, for events too.

    I’ll let you know what they say.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    you can do this with few simple steps:

    1) remove the action that adds the buttons completely by adding this in functions.php of your child theme:

    remove_action('geodir_detail_before_main_content', 'geodir_whoop_big_header', 30);

    2) Copy the function you just removed (geodir_whoop_big_header) from whoop/functions/general.php, paste it in ìfunctions.php of your child theme and rename it to my_geodir_whoop_big_header.

    3) Edit the function by wrapping the add photo button in a conditional tag that checks if curennt user is the post author.

    From :

    <a href="<?php if ($login_url) { echo $login_url.'?add_biz_photo=1'; } else { echo esc_url(add_query_arg(array("add_biz_photo" => '1'), get_permalink())); } ?>" class="whoop-btn whoop-btn-small"><i class="fa fa-camera"></i> <?php echo __('Add Photo', GEODIRECTORY_FRAMEWORK); ?></a>

    to:

    
    
    global $post,$current_user;
    get_currentuserinfo();
    if ($post->post_author == $current_user->ID) {?>
    <a href="<?php if ($login_url) { echo $login_url.'?add_biz_photo=1'; } else { echo esc_url(add_query_arg(array("add_biz_photo" => '1'), get_permalink())); } ?>" class="whoop-btn whoop-btn-small"><i class="fa fa-camera"></i> <?php echo __('Add Photo', GEODIRECTORY_FRAMEWORK); ?></a>
    <?php }

    Let us know how you went.

    Thanks
