    Correct me if I’m wrong, but Paid membership wouldn’t allow you to pay for a single listing and it wouldn’t allow to restrict GD elements in add listing forms.

    I don’t think that even a tight integration of any membership plugn would really allow to do without pricing and payments.

    Hi, in this theme the logo isn’t supposed to be shrinked.

    It should center and fit.

    If your logo is too big, either you reduce it size, or if you want it to shrink you should add to your child theme style.css something like:

    
    
    @media only screen and (max-width:480px)
    
    {	
    
    .site-logo img {
        max-width: 50%;
    }
    }

    You can play around with that 50% until you find your correct width.

    If you want to modify for other screen resolution you have to add 1 for each resolution

    Example :

    
    @media only screen and (max-width:960px)
    
    {	
    
    .site-logo img {
        max-width: 30%;
    }
    }
    
    @media only screen and (max-width:480px)
    
    {	
    
    .site-logo img {
        max-width: 50%;
    }
    }

    Hope it is clear

    Sorry to disappoint you, but it won’t be tonight. 🙁

    Vikas promised to finish the new MultiLocation by tomorrow. New MultiLocation because it is not just an update. It is really a new and improved multilocation addon, most of it has been rewritten.

    We would release the new core, but the old MultiLocation will not work with the new core and we’d rather release them all at once to avoid confusion.

    We are also working on the compatibility package, which will be released most likely the day after we release updated core and new multilocation.

    Thanks for your patience.

    Oh, just to make things clear. Personally, I have nothing against WPEngine.

    I simply think it is over hyped and not such a fantastic service, for the reasons I’ve mentioned and especially for thier price.

    The links where just to confirm that I’m not the only crazy out there saying that their service doesn’t shine as much as their reputation would make you imagine.

    Hi Greg,

    we wish GeoDirectory and GeoTheme could work 100% well with any hosting provider, that’s a fact, however it is very improbable due to the number of possible variable in server’s configurations.

    WPEngine decided, for extreme caching purposes, to limit their offer. PHP session and cookies are not supported and they clearly say it here.

    http://wpengine.com/support/cookies-and-php-sessions/

    Before they told many GeoTheme customers, that it was for security reasons, now they say that due to the cache, PHP isn’t excecuted and any PHP code that looks for cookies or handles session variables will not work, simply because it is not running.

    Unfortunately they don’t say it could be done, they prefer not to. Reason why I keep saying that WPEngine isn’t for applications, but for blogs and fairly static websites like Business Websites and Portfolios.

    WordPress core doesn’t use Sessions, reason why I think WPEngine choose not to, but WordPress alone is a blogging platform. Even an ecommerce site wouldn’t work, because cart are handled with sessions cookies.

    What do they suggest: To disable cache for all ecommerce pages!

    Sections of the site, such as product pages, the cart, and the checkout page, need to be un-cached for all visitors.

    Why would one want to pay $99 to host an ecommerce site if he can’t take advantage of cache and fast loading time? Which is what’s cool about them…

    Same goes for GeoDirectory.

    That said, I’ll talk to Stiofan and Vikas about this and check with them if we can find a viable alternative in order to make GD work with them too, but I really think it is almost impossible.

    Thanks

    yes, you are missing the 2 most important for the maps.

    Lat and long coordinates.

    If you need to get them in bulk from a list of addresses you can use a service like this: http://www.findlatitudeandlongitude.com/batch-geocode/

    Thx

    Hi the problem isn’t in the widget, but in the sidebar CSS. If you move the widget to the top of the sidebar it works perfectly.

    I’ll ask Stiofan to look into the css problem and fix it in the GDF framework…

    Hi,

    did you enter lat and long coordinate and an address for the listing in Breeder CPT?

    Thx

    Hi,

    currently the system was built to use 1 icon per custom field.

    If many members +1 the idea, we will look into it.

    Thank you

    Hi,

    you don’t copy the code, but the file itself inside your child theme.

    Once the system finds the file in your theme, it will start using that, so if you modify it, your edits will appear in the website.

    Let us know,

    Hi Greg,

    when most of our GeoTheme customers asked them why WPEngine didn’t manage php sessions they were saying for security reasons, please use cookies instead. Which is non-sense.

    Now they are saying Varnish can’t handle sessions.

    THAT’S not true. The way they setup Varnish doesn’t handle sessions.

    http://systemsarchitect.net/reading-php-session-from-varnish-cache/

    I don’t understand why we should make our application worst, in order to make it work with 1 Hosting provider, that from what I read around, isn’t that exceptional after all…
