Extending Listings to Other Websites

Thanks Alex! That would be great if the GD system had that capability.

I don’t know your system well enough yet to say exactly what we’d need.

However, I can say that we wouldn’t just want to do an import/export since we’d want any changes to the “main Directory” to auto-populate on the “extended Directory.”

Having the Directory on all the sports sites, as well as the main site would be fine with us. We’d just want a widget or short code that could call in the desired custom post type, category, sub-categories, and select fields.

So, I guess what we’re talking about is being able to call specific info from the main Directory and have it show on the other websites in our network.

We have a partner in San Diego we work with and I would love to do the same for their website. Meaning, take a portion of our info – all the resources we have in the San Diego area and have them show on their site.

Please let me know if that’s enough info to start, or if there’s something else I could share that would be helpful.

Thanks again!

We’d be fine installing the Directory on each site. We’d still want to figure out a way to only need to make changes on the main site, and not on the “extended sites” too.

I guess worse case scenario, if we can’t have it automatically populate elsewhere, we could do weekly exports to the “extended sites.”

I saw the “Embeddable Ratings Badge” addon, but thought it was just for ratings.

Can we use it as a widget with listing titles, but NOT include any ratings?

I suppose we can use ratings if needed, but we weren’t planning to use those in the beginning.

Thanks again for your help!
