    Hello

    Is there a guide to correctly import a list of 10,000 addresses?

    With :
    – Name
    – Category
    – Address
    – Postal code
    – City
    – Website
    – Telephone number
    – Name
    – email
    – Description

    Regards

    Hi Stephane,

    Thanks for your post. There aren’t any special options and following the instructions here would point you the right direction https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/geodirectory/settings/import-export/ .

    Hello Kor

    I tested the import. It works. However, I have a problem. I know the addresses but not latitude and longitude. In this case, the map is not displayed. Is there a solution?

    Regards

    Hello,

    as far as I know, if you are missing lat lon, you should use the GD import tool to make use of reverse geocoding. Try that and let us know how it goes.

    Hi Stephane,

    Thanks for your reply. Referring to the “error message”, did you insert your “Post Type”? Try importing demo listings and export it out. Then, refer to the exported file.

    You can share the CSV file here, but you need to zip it first into a zip file, then you can attach the zip file.

    It is highly recommended that you first add a test listing and export it to see the format required for the imported CSV file, and merge your data into that file.

    The overall procedure is here: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/geodirectory/settings/import-export/#recommended

    Finally it works when I select: “Update listing if post ID already exists.”

    Thx

    1.Is it possible to display a default country (France), and not the whole world?

    Yes, see this doc for how to set up a map that shows listings from one location: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/integrations/maps/#location

    2. How to display 100 results by default? (and not 10)

    For the archive and search pages, you can adjust the “Post per page” setting in WP – Settings – Reading – Post per page

    For the location page you will change the values of GD Listings to show more listings.

    3. Why do I have some cities and regions posted? (cf. picture)

    That will show 10 recent locations from the site database.

    4. Why do I only have one result when I search for the city of Paris? And the message “No Records Found. Sorry, no records were found. Please adjust your search criteria and try again.”

    I see 14 results, but only one per page. One per page is either the posts per page setting or a theme setting that sets posts per page, probably the theme, but I cannot login so I cannot check that.

    5. How can I manage the meta title & description of

    The Titles and Metas settings are what you want: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/geodirectory/settings/general/#titles-and-meta

    Please update WP Admin credentials if we need to check the settings.
