Nevermind…I dug a little deeper and found duplicate tags in the regular posts. I thought I had checked there. Slowly working my way through this. I didn’t find all of them now, but since it actually worked on some, I’m guessing they are all here somewhere. So..nevermind!

That page wasn’t what I was looking for, but I figured it out on my own last night. Is there no documentation on this? If not, there really should be! It would saved me HOURS of frustration and poking around trying to figure out how you guys had changed things.

Obviously this is relevant to the Gutenberg changes…and perhaps to the version change? I have been out of the loop a few months working on other projects and am just getting back to working on my directory, so I’m not sure.

What I discovered is that the widgets that USED TO be added via customizer are now added via editing the homepage and adding Gutenberg blocks to the homepage. Through poking around, I discovered a whole list of widgets that can be added as blocks. But I didn’t find any documentation anywhere to explain these changes! So either they don’t exist or they are not visible enough.

I also discovered, only because I poked around in these forums and saw it mentioned here…and this is another thing I feel should be documented somewhere for people who have been using your plugin since before these changes… that the widget that used to be called “Popular Post View” has been renamed “Listings”.

I find it interesting and frustrating that none of this was mentioned in your response above to my post and I had to figure it out for myself. I pay for a membership and expected better support than this. For me that was a lot of money to fork out…I had expected better documentation and tech support. Although in fairness, I’ll give the benefit of the doubt that maybe my post wasn’t clear what I was looking for. But the documentation should be something I can easily find as these are pretty huge changes to setting up the homepage!

The fact that I had to figure this on my own is very disappointing. If you do have documentation for all this, please point it out to me because I’ve been looking.

Ok, I think I got it. I only had widgets in the content section. I put some in the sidebars of the homepage and played around some more with the numbers and now things are moving around. YAY! It works!

Thank you!

There’s not actually anything to see…nothing changes. I just am playing around, trying to see how things work. Still brand new, learning how to tweak things. I know that I am supposed to be able to adjust these things:
Width of listing right section
Width of listing content section
Width of listing left section
Width of home right section
Width of home content section
Width of home left section

I also see the same fields in author and search…I assume if I fiddle with those I will get the same lack of results.

Any numbers I put into any of these fields…and I’ve played with this quite a LOT. Does nothing. Nothing changes, even a little. Nothing happens.

I am using the Supreme Directory theme, so I don’t think it’s a theme compatibility issue.

I’m not actually trying to DO anything at this point…just wanted to see what I can change and see what it would look like. Just playing. Also wanted to see exactly what was considered “content” section by making changes. But since nothing is changing, I am still unsure.

Just would like to know why I am unable to actually tweak anything using these fields. If I have something set wrong or if there’s a glitch or what?
