    Hi there,

    May be a pretty simple fix but would love to be able to link vendors contributed articles so as they can be viewed on their listing page.
    Is this possible please?

    Hi Arlia Hassell,

    Thanks for your post. You can link CPT’s using the method here https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/addons/custom-post-types/#link . Is this what you’re looking for?

    Hello,

    Our recommended approach for that is to create an article (blog) CPT and then use the Custom Post Types addon to create the link Kor mentioned. Then it is all GD Features and you can even design the template for your blog posts easily.

    We don’t have features related to WP Blog posts at this time.

    Thanks so much for this info!
    Unfortunately, though that would not allow me to just link to the one vendor’s blogs. That option would only show all blogs via that CPT I create.

    Is there no option to link the vendors listing to only their submitted content?

    Thank again

    Hello,

    You could create an ‘article’ CPT, and allow your vendors with places listings to link from places to ‘only’ the articles they have created. Does that help?
