    two pointers for a complete newbie – no programming experience, learning my way through the hard way – any advice please, please imagine talking to a 5 year old…

    Apologies if this has been covered before – if it has please point me in the right direction – I’m looking to add a image to the top of the listing page, can this be done?

    also I’ve got a database of just under 10,000 people, I’ve seen the information needed however i only have: name, address (in one field), phone number, email address, website. I’ve looked at the required fields!!!! is there any other way to complete these without entering each of the 10k people individually. i.e. i don’t have long and lat…

    if you’ve used a spreadsheet before then please share with your information removed – would be really appreciative.

    thanks in advance.

    Hello Benjamin,
    – Will the image be placed outside the actual listing slideshow?
    – Attached you will find the sample .CSV, with it you can figure out where to add the details of your listings, try first with a couple, not directly with 10k. Each column is self explanatory, Remember to create first the category on your website, and then be sure to use the same name on the .CSV. Also use the same post type (e.g. gd_place if you use the default for Places) .

    You can find more info about the CSV here and here for all the things in GD.

    We are here to help,

    Hi S.

    What do you mean by listing slideshow? is that a widget that I’ve overlooked? – we’re not using a GeoTheme.

    – thanks for the sheet. if we have fields missing what do we replace them with? i.e. we do not have long / lat, and the addresses we have are all in one field, so can’t really divide.

    thanks for the prompt response.

    Hi,
    – All the images you’ll upload when adding a listing, will go into its detail page and create a slider if the images are more than one.

    You can use this website to create a batch file for the addresses and obtain lat and lon

    thanks for this, still slightly confused.

    The listing page (when the clients signs up for the subscription) can the area above:

    * Indicates mandatory fields
    Select Package

    be edited so an image can appear?

    You have full control of the fields/custom fields.
    You can create multiple packages (with the add-on Price and Payment) and the listing can be edited. When editing a listing, you can edit all the fields including, of course, images

    sorry I’m confusing things here…

    i don’t want to edit the custom fields. I want to put a welcoming image at the top of this page, before they complete the form.

    for example 700 x 300px image – welcome to this form… etc

    hello, you can make add this in the functions.php in your child theme

    
    
    add_action( 'geodir_add_listing_page_title', 'content_before_add_listing', 45 );
    																		  
    				function content_before_add_listing() {
    									  echo "<img src="yourimagehere.jpg">"; }
    

    change the filename according to the one you want.
