    Hi, I would like to exclude the Description field from one of the packages – but that field is not allowed to exclude in the package.

    Hiding thru CSS would hide it from all packages.

    Any suggestions on how i can achieve this, please?

    thanks, Vivek

    Hi vivek,

    Thanks for your post. You can apply a custom CSS class into the “Description Field” and apply custom CSS to hide it only for that CPT.

    Thanks Kor,

    Actually, I do not want to hide ‘Description’ field from a CPT, but only from one of the packages eg Free package. In other packages i do want the description to be there.
    Unlike custom fields i cannot exclude Desc in the package or field setting.

    I looked at this snippet:https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/common-code-snippets/#package , but this for detail page, not for Add-Listing Page

    I would like to exclude /hide Desc from the ADD LISTING page for a partciular package, to have a similar effect as excluding a field in the package settings.

    thanks, Vivek

    The option included with GD is to set the description field for 10 characters. Inside the package options you can enable the option to limit the characters in the description field, then set the limit for 10.

    There isn’t an option to exclude that particular field through the pricing manager options, as you say, so that would require a customization.

    Thanks, Alex.

    Is there an easy way to add the package ID and hide the description thru css, for add listing also, as done for detail page here?

    Unfortunately, Package ID is not loaded on the Add Listing page body class.

    I have taken this up as a suggestion and will share it with our development team to see whether we can work on this in the near future.

    Please feel free to make a new topic if you need help with anything else.
