    Hi,

    Can you please recommend what we could use or do to add either a landing page and/or a compatible theme to make our directory’s homepage appearance look professional and stand out…?

    Thank you,
    Robert

    You can create any normal WordPress page and use that as the homepage. Be aware thay you can only use one theme at the time.

    Thanks

    Can you please pinpoint the main or key Genesis file that needs to first be installed and then explain if it needs to be installed as a theme or plugin?

    Thank you,
    Robert

    You will need the Genesis framework: https://my.studiopress.com/themes/genesis/

    So is this not included in the annual membership of GeoDirectory?

    Genesis is one of the most popular frameworks, and the GeoTravel theme is a child theme that needs the whole Genesis Framework. Third party themes or plugins are not included in GD memberships.
    Thanks

    I see. If i purchase this option https://my.studiopress.com/pro-plus/ does the Genesis Framework come included or is that extra also?

    From https://my.studiopress.com/checkout/?product_id=15886

    The Pro Plus package from StudioPress gives you access to every StudioPress theme, including Genesis.

    Ok, if I just purchase the Genesis Framework for $59.00, can I use it over and over again on my other sites using GeoDirectory or does it have to be purchased for each individual website?

    Hi,

    I finally made the decision to just purchase the Genesis Framework plugin and have successfully installed and activated it.

    How do i now proceed forward to use one of the GeoDirectory themes for my site’s homepage?

    Hi Guust,

    I did not know about these extra steps that have to be taking prior to activating the Genesis theme and had already activated it albeit after I had installed the GD travel theme. Please explain what I should do from this point…?

    Thank you,
    Robert
