    Hi, when alphabetizing a list of places, how do I make the sorting ignore articles such as “The” or “A”?

    For example:

    – Blue House
    – Green House
    – The Purple House
    – Red House
    – A White House

    Thanks.

    Hi Matt,

    Thanks for your post. Unfortunately, what you needed there isn’t possible without customization.

    Hi Kor, do you mean it’s not recommended to do it or just that it requires additional custom code?

    Would the customization need to be specifically for GD or could it be done at a WordPress level (site-wide)?

    Hi Matt,

    Thanks for your reply. It would require additional code to manipulate the sorting options. You can try looking for a freelance developer here https://geodirectoryexperts.com/ that could help you with this customization.
