Yes, you are right, we are talking about location widgets. But the visualization will be clearer if we use the Listimia theme. But it doesn’t matter if we use the default GD theme.
Although in the “Show Location” dropdown (in GD > Location widget), we can only choose by City, or Regional.. actually it is very interesting if visitors can see the “city with the latest listings” recommendation, on the homepage.
On our website, for example, we do a listing of tourist destination listings. If location listings are sorted by time, visitors will know which cities have the latest tourist destinations. Maybe visitor will thinking like this, “The city most talked about, by backpackers/tourists this month”, if there is most recent listing added.
While the location is sorted by tags, sorry, I just remembered that, this widget only shows City / Region, not for each listing name. So, sorting by Tag is not very useful for us.
Hope it helps your team in making the next decision.
Thank you
