    Can I recommend that, now that the system has reached a certain mass, you consider tracking changes important to developers?

    For example: You switched from using:
    /geodirectory/geodirectory-templates/listing-listview.php

    to the brand new:
    /geodirectory/geodirectory-templates/widget-listing-listview.php

    Which is a filterable location. Anyone (in my case my plugin, but literally ANYONE could have) overriding that template just had their site break because the old template file is completely incompatible with this change.

    These types of changes are NOT in the changelog. Maybe they should be, or maybe they could be listed elsewhere?

    PS: Not a real bug, but a friendly/frustrated rant about an undocumented change.

    I see ur point Jeff, i will talk to the devs and ask them to add things like this in the change log.
