This page https://wpgeo.directory/starter/ has the sections “Popular places” and “Latest Places”. How to create them using GD widgets? There are no widgets with this name, and gdloop/gdloopaction don’t have any options to customize.

Thank you.

GD Listings is the most powerful element. It has extensive options for showing lists of listings. Try it out and let us know how it goes.

There are no settings on the GD > Listings widget with the word popular or latest. If we could see the code in your demo we would not have to ask. Thanks for considering.

Hi there,

You can use the option here as shown in this screenshot. Select “Highest Rating/Newest”

Thank you. Just to confirm, is Popular = Highest Rating? I thought it was related to views.

Hi there,

Thanks for your reply. You can use “GD > Recently Viewed” to display the Most Recently Viewed Listings.

Thanks

Popular we normally use highest number of reviews or ratings.

But it’s really just a widget title.

Thanks
