    Hi – Is there a way to have listings link to an external mobile maps app? I would expect to see a message that links to a choice of the Apple Maps or Google Maps app, or to the relevant app store. This is for a site that will exclusively be used in mobile scenarios.

    Directions within the site are fine, too – would just like to add a link for dedicated external apps.

    The GD Post Directions element can be used in the Archive item or Details template. It will show a link to the lat/lon of the listing. When a user on mobile clicks it, it will ask them (intent) how they want to open it and they can choose their map app or the browser version of map apps.

    FYI, I am using the Listimia theme.
