    Hi,
    I would like to rely solely on the address, and not use the “Title” at all.
    Is there a way of either:
    a) making the “title” field optional
    or
    b) automatically copying the address field into the title ?

    Hi,

    the title is a mandatory element of a wordpress post of any kind. Can’t really be blank as it’s also what creates the URL.

    hiding the field and automatically copying the address field in the title can probably be done with jQuery, but that would require a customization.

    Thanks

    Here is the customization in case anyone needs the same thing:

    

    
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
    $(document).on('submit','#propertyform',function(){
    $("#post_title").val($("#post_address").val()+", "+$("#post_city").val()+", "+$("#post_region").val()+", "+$("#post_zip").val());
    });
});
