I tried putting in the shortcode from here: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/geodirectory/design-elements/#badges
[gd_post_badge key=”claimed” condition=”is_not_empty” badge='<i class=”fas fa-check-circle”></i>Verified’ bg_color=”#ff8040″ txt_color=”#ffffff” size=”small” alignment=”right” css_class=”verified”]
[gd_post_badge key=”claimed” condition=”is_empty” badge='<i class=”far fa-question-circle”></i>Unclaimed’ bg_color=”#ff8040″ txt_color=”#ffffff” size=”small” alignment=”right” css_class=”unverified”]
Tried each as a widget (text and html). Then tried using the Badge widget for other uses, such as website, which will not go anywhere unless a link is inserted into the url field, which would not be good if one link is on each listing page (I assumed it would link to the company’s website…maybe not?).
Also tried using the above Badge shortcode on the GD Details template page, as well as using the “Add Shortcode” inserter on the GD Details template page to no effect. I did get use the Shortcode inserter to input [gd_claim_post text=”Claim Listing” output=”button”], which works.
Like I said, it is not a rush or an issue, since I can use the [gd_claim_post text=”Claim Listing” output=”button”] in the GD template, but thought I would try Badges and see if they worked in the new version, but I have had no luck. Maybe I am doing something wrong?
