    HI,

    I Bought the full membership and loaded all the plugins, I did the conversion, everything seemed to run smoothly but when I go to the home page it says that there are not listings.

    My test site for the conversion is http://www.broskitest5.co.za

    I followed all the steps for the conversion I do not know what else to so.

    How does one also add the new listing tab in the menu bar?

    All my listings show under places and all my categories show under categories, none of it just seems to pull through to the front page?

    Please advise

    Kind Regards

    Hi, I see now, when I went into one of the listings – the Geo Theme Listing information is at the bottom and the Geo Directory places information is at the top, Do I have to go and copy and past all the information over and then select all category items from scratch or does it mean the conversion id not work?

    Hi again,

    did you have the MultiLocation add-on installed before performing the conversion has explained in the point number 5 of Start The Conversion: documentation : https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/geotheme-to-geodirectory-conversion-tutorial/?

    It looks like you only had GeoDirectory installed and the default location.

    Let us know,

    Thanks

    Hi, yes I had all the plugins installed before, I made sure that on the Conversion Screen everything was available , that nothing said n/a and on the right hand side it said found on all items listed and I installed all the items as listed on the link above – The link above is what I used to do the conversion.

    The only thing I am not 100% sure of is this :

    7. Once done, go to both Place & Event Settings for custom fields and simple save any ONE field, this will rebuild the sort order which can stop some fields showing on the edit pages.

    I did go to the place settings and saved a custom field…

    Hi Broski,

    Looked into your site database and found the theer is not any listing inserted in table “wp_geodir_gd_place_detail”. So seems something wrong with the conversion process.

    Pleas provide us a FRESH test site with original database where we can perform conversion to find what causes problem.

    Thanks,
    Kiran

    Good day,

    I am so sorry for the delay, I had some problems with the backup restore but it has finally worked.

    Our internet is very slow so sometimes it bombs out and I have to start over all the time.

    Got assistance to get it done.

    Please go ahead with the conversion, the only thing is that I do not want to use the supreme theme, I want to make use of the

    Kind Regards

    Thank you, It seems to be working now..

    What was the problem, if you could see one?

    Then also if I want to change the look, do I just load the GD Bold theme and everything will be fine still, I like the way it is now but incase later if I want to change?

    I just want to find out where are the pricing tables as I had prices set up on my previous site?

    A Free listing, a primary listing at R120 and a Primary Plus listing at R250 and each one had different parameters?

    Kind Regards

    Hi Broski,

    > What was the problem, if you could see one?

    Not exactly sure what was the problem, but following GT 2 GD process steps, it went correctly from our side.

    > Then also if I want to change the look, do I just load the GD Bold theme and everything will be fine still, I like the way it is now but incase later if I want to change?

    You can customize your directory with the use of some style changes as you want. As GeoDirectory was built to work any WordPress theme you can use any of our theme(except GeoTheme) or any third party WordPress theme. Most of popular WordPress themes are well compatible with GeoDirectory.
    Here are some showcase websites which are running with our GeoDirectory plugin.

    > I just want to find out where are the pricing tables as I had prices set up on my previous site?
    <
    All GeoDirectory related things are now available under Admin > GeoDirectory. In GeoDirectory prices available under GeoDirectory -> Prices & Payments -> Prices, you need to have install Payment Manager plugin as you have currently not installed.

    > A Free listing, a primary listing at R120 and a Primary Plus listing at R250 and each one had different parameters?
    <
    Yes each price package has its own parameters to provide limitation to the users for each price package.
    Here more documentation on Payment Manager: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/category/addons/prices-and-payments/

    Thanks,
    Kiran

    Thank you, I installed the payments plugin and it is working.

    Is there a way to change the layout of a listing – I do not want the place categories to show in both the sidebar and the content page and I also want to change the order of the tabs: I want the slides to show then under that I want the video to show first then the profile and then the map…

    If you follow this link you will see the order it is in now
    http://broskitest5.co.za/places/south-africa/gauteng/vaal/renovations_and_maintenace/decor-home-design/

    It does not look good when all the categories show under the slide show and I need the video to show under the slide show.
    It also does not look good when the categories show on the right in the sidebar.

    Can you please advise how to change this… I deselected tabs that I did not want to be visible but I do not see where to shuffle them around or where to hide place category & place tags on both content page & side bar.

    Kind Regards

    Hello,

    > I do not want the place categories to show in both the sidebar and the content page
    <
    To remove categories from right sidebar go to Admin -> GeoDirecotry -> Place Settings -> Custom Fields -> Category -> Remove “Ditails page sidebar” from “Show in what locations?”
    To remove categories & tags from under the slide show use follwong code snippet.

    
    
    
    function gddev_plugins_loaded() {
        remove_action('geodir_details_main_content', 'geodir_action_details_taxonomies', 40);
    }
    add_action( 'plugins_loaded', 'gddev_plugins_loaded' );
    

    > I also want to change the order of the tabs
    < See documentation here to re-order listing detail page tabs – https://wpgeodirectory.com/re-order-tabs-in-a-listing-detail-page/

    Thanks,
    Kiran
