importing CVS question re: custom field

Hello!

Each CPT (places is also a CPT) has a set of categories. Click on “Places” in the WP admin on t he left side to select place categories > Add category. Add a category there, and then add the category to a simple listing sample. Then do your export of places again to see where you category ends up in the CSV.

You can have parents and children in the categories, and select both or one or the other, but the first listed in the CSV will be the ‘default’ category of the listing.

Any custom field that you add to the CPT will also be included in the export. You don’t have to use only categories, you can also add custom fields. Categories are slightly different than custom fields, though, because all your categories must exist prior to importing the listings.

Locations are not categories, they are the location data retrieved from the Geocoding API you choose to use on your site, either Google Maps or OpenStreetMap. You should definitely add one or more listings with locations, or use the sample data, to see how locations and location data are stored in the CSV.

There is not an exact concept match if you are looking for parent ‘listings’ except for the franchise plugin, but that is designed for a single business with multiple locations, not a single site with multiple businesses at that site/location.

Let us know if you have further questions

Great!

Let us know if you have more questions!

Hi James,

if you provide a link so that we can inspect the page, we can provide the css needed to hide it.

Let us know,

Thanks

This should help with both things

You can add it to GeoDirectory > Design > Scripts > Custom CSS:

.geodir_price .fa.fa-usd {
    display: none;
}

.geodir-i-location {
    display: block;
}
