    I’d like to add a section on certain Place’s Detail Pages that show nearby listings by specific categories.

    For example: We have theatre venues that I do not want to show “related” listings like other theatres but rather show nearby restaurant options. And on the restaurants page show nearby “theatres” or other specific categories.

    Is there a way to alter the Related Listings code to achieve this? Or is there an easier solution I’m not finding?

    Hi,

    currently the only option would be to alter the related listings code, but it isn’t something that can be done with few lines of code. New options and queries would have to be added and that is beyond the scope of a support forum.

    EDITED:

    I thought this could be feasible, but after a second thought I realized this would require a lot of conditions that would make it really inefficient.

    In Design > detail we would need to create a number of options equal to the number of categories you have installed (potentially unlimited) and for each, allow you to select what other category should be displayed in each case.

    That is not practical and would be unusable in all website that have more than a couple categories.

    Thanks
