    Hi there

    Firstly, thanks for such fantastic products 🙂

    Instead of ‘Popular Categories’ in the Featured Area below search bar, could these be replaced with CPT’s? I’ve created CPT’s with their own categories and sub-categories but I’d like to control what is displayed under the search bar, specifically using CPT’s (e.g. Businesses, Accommodation, See and Do etc.).

    Thanks in advance
    Matt

    Hi Matt,

    Thanks for your reply. If you’ve CPT’s, switching the CPT’s on the search dropdown will change the categories below to the CPT categories. Check out the attached screenshot. You can test it here. https://wpgeo.directory/supreme-directory/ . Is this what you’re looking for?

    Thanks!

    Hello Matt,

    That search form & categories coming via shortcodes. See https://github.com/AyeCode/supreme-directory/blob/master/inc/geodirectory-compatibility.php#L590

    In v2 CPT Listings shortcode no longer supported. The site you provided for reference is v1. We will check and see if we can implement CPT Listings widget in v2 as well.

    Till then if you can you custom html to display CPTs instead of Categories under search bar.

    Hello Matt,

    Make sure you have categories available with listings. It is possible that you have not allowed child categories to display.

    We have added CPT Listings widget in Custom Post Types v2, it will be in next release.

    Provide FTP credentials if you want to update patch.

    Hello Matt,

    The categories rendered via shortcode added in child theme file \themes\supreme-directory\inc\geodirectory-compatibility.php line no. 591.

    I have changed max_level=”0″ to max_level=”1″.

    The issue on your site is you have added listing to the child category, but the parent category of that child category is empty(has no listing assigned), so if parent category is empty then the child category not displayed. Parent category must have at-least one listing assigned to display child category.

    FYI: You can use shortcode [gd_cpt_listings] to display all CPTs.

    Thanks,
    Kiran

    Hello,

    You can fix it by either limiting categories count (ex: max_count=”10″ max_count_child=”10″) or by adding following style snippet.

    
    
    .featured-area .geodir-categories-container {
        overflow-x: hidden;
        max-height: 200px;
        overflow-y: auto;
    }
