    Hello
    I have 2 queries

    1) We would like to make the title each Ad stand out by placing it above the images on top of each ad. It’s often unlcear immediately what an ad is.

    Here is a link showing what we want to achieve for every ad and event.
    https://www.leboncoin.fr/locations_gites/1029296715.htm?ca=13_s

    How can this be done? We would also like to be able to modify the colour and font size of the text above the image.

    2) How can we optimise the SEO element of of the Ads?

    Many thanks

    Hello,
    Re question 1, I’ve just seen that your demo contains the title above the ad. Sorry, I didn’t remember this from before. So, how do I add this element to all existing ads without breaking them and to future ads too?

    Thanks

    hi,

    what theme are you using? If you provide a link we will give you more info.

    What do you mean by “How can we optimise the SEO element of of the Ads?”

    Thanks

    Hello,

    The title should be there, can you provide wp-admin and FTP and i will check why it is not there.

    Thanks,

    Thanks for the info, under Enfold>Header>Header Title and Breadcrumbs, you have it set to not show…

    Hello
    Thanks for your reply but I was not referring to the breadcrumb or title at that level as I think it takes up too much space on the page. They are deactivated on purpose in Enfold header options.

    I was referring to the title of the advert directly above the images on the ads. For example; on the ad below, the title is AFRIKHAYA GUESTHOUSE. How can I get the title to display on all the ads at that location? Do I have to modify the ad listing template and if so, what do I insert and where? Thanks

    The link only goes to the main preview page so please click on the ad to see what i’m referring to. It’s the individual ad page itself and not the general preview page. The title that’s above the slider images is what I’m trying to get.
    Thanks

    To be even more specific: What I call the ‘title’ could be the ‘name’ on the ad listing form. This is what I’d like to show up above the ad slider images. Hope that’s clearer.

    Thanks

    That is the title of the page, and you do not show the title of ANY of your pages, not even the regular ones so, if you have it set not to show then it will not show…

    You might try adding this line to your child theme functions to try and add it back but i am not sure it will work for you:

    

    
add_action('geodir_details_main_content', 'geodir_action_page_title', 21);

    Hello Stiofan
    

     It did the trick!!  I just need to reduce the text size but it’s exactly what I was aiming for. 
    

    Thanks very much.
