    Hi. I want to know if they know any way to add a waze button to each publication, with the purpose of guiding by means of waze to the possible clients towards the businesses that are published in my directory.

    Hi Glovan,

    There isn’t an option available at the moment but you can always create a custom field and insert custom URL to link to Waze as mentioned here https://developers.google.com/waze/deeplinks/

    Thanks!

    Thanks for your answer, Kor. But what kind of custom field would it have to be?
    You have some guidance on how to add a new custom field, which you could share with me, since I have no idea how to add new custom fields and also do not know where to add them. I have added to some CPT some fields such as text fields and multi-selection fields, which are the default geodirectory, but I see a small window where it says that “There are no personalized fields here yet? Is there any other type of custom field that I could add and if so, how is that done? Sorry for my ignorance.

    Hi Giovan,

    Thanks for your reply and I’m sorry for not being clear. Check out this section of the documentation that explains how you can create a custom URL field. https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-place-settings/#url . Let us know how it goes.

    Thanks!

    I imagine that you can also something similar with google maps? In other words, put a “How to get there” link with google maps? Could you also tell me, how can I do this with google maps?

    There is a field for “Get Directions” that is a link, you can find it at:

    Geodirectory – Place Settings – Custom Fields – Get Directions Link

    Let us know how it goes

    Thanks Alex, excelnete help. It is very complete geodirectorio. And one last question, sorry for many questions, but could it also be integrated with the UBER application? That is, the visitors to my website that have the application on their phones to request Uber can do so?

    We have a snippet that does something similar to “Get Directions” using the listing lat/lon that can be used with different URLs:

    A developer expert can help to set it up for Uber: https://geodirectoryexperts.com

    Ok Thank you very much, I will study this information. For the moment I will stay with the link of wize and google maps.
