    I will have 2 Search pages – one is set up “search by Location” here :http://rmcc.bwwtest.com/locations/

    As I stated on a previous post I need to have this type of search http://compassoncology.com/locations-physicians/ except I’m having a separate page for Providers and one for Locations

    Here is my page for Providers:
    http://rmcc.bwwtest.com/providers/

    But what I need is for it to say:
    Physicians and Advanced Practice Provider in the first field (drop down for each) NO Location here
    Name
    Specialty
    Zip Code

    On this page It says CUSTOM SEARCH – I just want to have what I’ve listed above. How do I do that?
    http://rmcc.bwwtest.com/?geodir_search=1&stype=gd_physicians&s=andorsky&snear=&sgd_physicianscategory%5B%5D=76&sgeo_lat=&sgeo_lon=

    Thanks for your help!

    Why don’t you use the normal GD pages?
    http://rmcc.bwwtest.com/physicians/ is ready to search physicians, and http://rmcc.bwwtest.com/places/ is ready to search locations.

    If you want the dropdown to read “Physicians and Advanced Practice Providers”, change the plural name of the custom post type.

    I am using those pages. I don’t think you understand what I need. I need the custom search fields that I asked about

    I need the Physician “search page” to search by Name, Specialty or Zip as I explain in my original post.

    Here is my page for Providers:
    http://rmcc.bwwtest.com/providers/

    But what I need is for it to say:
    Physicians and Advanced Practice Provider in the first field (drop down for each) NO Location here
    Name
    Specialty
    Zip Code

    On this page It says CUSTOM SEARCH – I just want to have what I’ve listed above. How do I do that?

    Thanks for your help!

    The advance search widget, if used in custom pages, will always show the default custom post type in the 1st field.

    If used in a CPT archive page (places and physicians), the CPT will be auto-selected for the visited CPT.

    I asked to the developers if it’s possible to add a new parameter for the shortcode to allow to select the CPT to show as default, in each page where the shortcode is used.

    That would be the only workaround to achieve exactly what you want.

    They’ll let us know asap.

    Thanks

    its not really possible to add this as a shortcode parameter as it uses a global value so things hooking into it can also know the CPT.

    I have added a hook “geodir_get_current_posttype” which might work to “trick” it, when the next version is released (hopefully monday) remind me to make you a code snippet to test, otherwise it might be easier to add some JS to quickly change the value on load.

    Thanks,

    My client wants these search parameters exactly and this is the whole reason we went with GD. I asked pre-sales questions and showed this example and was told it would do that and more.

    I’m glad you’re looking into a solution. Thank you.

    Hi Kim,

    After the release i have actually added the post_type as a global shortcode parameter, if you can provide wp-admin and FTP details i will upload it for you or i will likely release it tomorrow.

    Thanks,

    Stiofan

    Hi,

    it’s 9pm now in UK, I’m sure Stiofan went off for the night and he’ll do this first thing in the morning.

    Thank you for your patience,
