Author Parameter in Shortcode

Hello,

You had asked me to respond here about thew new version. I have to be honest, I don’t know how github works. I am not a developer. Can you let me know how to do it? Or can you install the new version so I can work on it this weekend?

Also, I need to know how to add this custom column. Here is your original email:

HI,

the way I see it, this is possible and not even that difficult.

You could use 1 custom post type with locations enabled to list contractors and 1 locationless custom post type to list projects.

Then a small customization would be needed, to add a custom tab in each contractor’s profile, that lists all projects submitted by that contractor.

Adding a custom tab isn’t difficult. https://wpgeodirectory.com/add-a-new-tab-in-the-listing-detail-page/

In the new tab you would need to call the gd_listings shortcode with the author parameter set to display only listings of the custom post type project from the same author of the visited listing.

The author parameter in that shortcode is the only thing that isn’t available yet, but it is in our roadmap for next release.

You’ll probably won’t even need a developer to do all this.

Hope this is an acceptable solution.

Thank you,

The GeoDirectory Team
