Disable rating but NOT comments

I don’t understand why you would allow a user to edit a place but not a owner? It could be done easily but i don’t understand the logic 🙂

So after a listing is claimed no one but the admin can edit it?

( The comments part should work like that by default )

ok, then you could add a simple check on the edit form saying something like sorry the owner can no longer edit this listing, please contact support for any changes”

This code snippet should do it:

add_action('geodir_add_listing_form', '_owner_not_edit', 5);

Function _owner_not_edit(){
	global $post;
	if(isset($post->claimed) && $post->claimed=='1'){
		remove_action('geodir_add_listing_form', 'geodir_action_add_listing_form', 10);

		echo "The owner can no longer edit this listing, please contact support for any changes";
	}
}

The owner has a special class attached you can use to add any sort of not you like, for example

.commentlist li.bypostauthor .dt-comment-header strong a.url:after {
    content: "Owner";
    background: yellow;
    margin-left: 10px;
    padding: 1px 8px;
}

That is just an example, u can do anything with the class.

i had missed the .bypostauthor class, i have updated my CSS above, just add the .bypostauthor part and it should work.
