    I uploaded a csv with location descriptions. They are visible in Multilocations > SEO settings. I also added a Location Description widget to the GD Home Content Section. However, the descriptions are not displaying on the Location pages. Can you help please? Thanks

    The descriptions are not ‘inherited’, so, the France description doesn’t show on every city page for each city that is in France. Instead the description for a city in France will be shown, if it exists.

    Hi Sam,

    I’ve inserted this custom CSS code below into Gd > Design > Scripts > Custom Style CSS to fix this. Could you please check?

    

    .geodir_category_list_view li.geodir-gridview .geodir-content .geodir-entry-content {
    display: block;
}

    Thanks for working on this, but I think something is still awry. Please see the image. I’ve uploaded, via import csv, a series of location descriptions that are in the database in “location description.” The csv uploaded descriptions do NOT display … but the manually entered ones like for Paris “A great place!” do display. I think the csv descriptions should display also, right?

    Hello,
    

    I also imported one fantasy location and see the Location Description displayed.
    

    The “city_desc” field values seem to have not loaded in completely during your import, as they are to be copied into that ‘other’ location description field.
    

    Please try exporting and importing the locations again.

    OK! I think I see the issue.
    

    The import is moving the city_desc to the right place when the cities in the CSV are NEW.
    

    But if they are being updated, then the city_desc is not being copied over to the proper location in the locations table.
    

    I will flag this for the developers to take a look and confirm this finding.
    

    Thanks for your patience!

    Hi Sam,
    

    Finally found this issue happens with update seo data via CSV import. We have fixed it.
    

    Please provide us FTP credentials so we can apply patch on your site or it will be in next release.
