We have a set region, which is a state. However, there are several listings that provide services in that state, but are physically not in the state. Eg. insurance providers.

We need these listings to show up in the general listings and it seems like location-less listings have to be in their own CPT correct? If thats true, can you see any other way to add these without changing the default state and country and changing everything about how our map displays?

Or can we modify the way maps display to only show a set area, even though there are listings beyond their bounds?

Many thanks,

Bodhi

You could create a custom field for the location-less CPT, that collects an optional postal address for example …

Can i make the address field and map section not mandatory and just have any CPT be locationless, even if 99% of the listings have a location?

Addresses can only be disable on a CPT per CPT basis.

It doesn’t make it not mandatory…

Listings of locationless CPT are not showing in any of the maps widgets too.

The only way to list things outside of your default region and make them appear on any of the maps, is to extend your default region.

Thanks

You cannot have BOTH location-less AND located listings in the same CPT.

My question, if I add a new CPT for a locationless service and someone does a search, will the locationless service show up mixed in with any “brick and morter” locations?

For my example, I have a company with a HQ in CA, but they run flights out of Denver CO. So, when someone is looking for flights, I want them to show with all my CO transport options?

Thanks

But they will both turn up in the normal WP result.
