    How can I add a “Find out more” to listings?

    Set the amount of words showing to something less than the number of words in the description:
    GD > Design > Listings > Description word limit
    or in the widgets.

    That will add a “Read More” to the listing.
    Translate that to “Find out more” using the language file:

    Thanks

    Ok. I guess the issue is that most do not have anything in there yet. They have lots of pic and sidebar info but not where you mention. Is there a way to just add the words with link so people will look farther?

    Another issue is that I can not get categories to show up on listing page sidebar.

    You are talking about the Detail page, not the Listings page.
    So I am not sure what the “Find out more” would be linking to.
    But you can add it as part of the description or as a link:
    https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-place-settings/#url

    To add categories to the sidebar, select “show in > sidebar” in the custom field settings:
    GD > Place Settings > Custom fields tab > Categories field
    https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-place-settings/#show

    Thanks

    I am guessing you set GD > Design > Listings > Description word limit to zero, so there is no text on the Listings page and therefore no “read more”.

    I am guessing you do not have a CPT Categories widget in GD Listings Right sidebar.

    That pinpoint is so small because of some CSS but without a URL I cannot say for sure.

    Thanks

    Correct, as I wrote earlier “… Set the amount of words showing …”

    We cannot provide CSS without having the URL of the pages, but I do not think that can be targeted with CSS because it is “part of” the text, it does not have its own style that can be targeted.

    But if you want us to have a look, send the URL of the relevant page [not just the homepage].

    Thanks

    Hi Kerry,

    I just don’t understand why it […] shows up on the main page but not the Listing page.

    So what exactly do you want and i’ll tell you how to get it.

    Thanks,

    Stiofan

    Hi Stiofan,
    On the LISTING pages it does not have […] after the words Read More. Do you have some fancy CSS that can add […] or make make the words Read More smaller or in italics? It just needs to stand out.
