Hello,
I have installed everything as advised and have even looked at some of the videos on YouTube but for some reason, my website won’t show it in the same manner that it does on your demo. Can you please help me?
October 29, 2014 at 7:59 pm #20021Hi,
The theme used is not comaptible out of the box.
In firebug console, I can see this error:
You have included the Google Maps API multiple times on this page. This may cause unexpected errors.
This means that the theme is already making calls to the google maps api. You will need to disable all calls to google maps api from the theme for the plugin to work.
The layout problems can all be solved, but it will require few custom functions, to remove GeoDirectory default html wrappers and make it adopt the theme html wrappers. You can find examples here of how we made it for other themes.
Alternatively you can use one of the theme that are known to be 100% compatible.
Thx
October 29, 2014 at 8:01 pm #20022Ok but my current website is built on the theme that you see. I will need this to show on the same platform/them that the website is built on.
How do we fix this and the API issue?
October 29, 2014 at 8:06 pm #20024Also, I have looked at the examples but none of them match the theme platform that it was built on. It was more of a custom build (so I was told). Are there any other resources to help with accomplishing what I would like? Your plugin looks the best
October 29, 2014 at 8:11 pm #20026Hi,
you will need the help of a developer to both adapt the tempplates and remove the Google maps API calls.
I was offering to use another theme as an alternative, in case you would have found too difficult to create a comaptibility pack for your website.
John (who made all integrations for us)can be hired to do it for you if you wish.
Let us know,
Thx
October 29, 2014 at 9:59 pm #20043I do not understand why there are multiple calls. Prior to me posting here, I uninstalled and did a fresh install. For that reason, I don’t believe that it should be multiple API calls.
I have also hired another developer to get this accomplished and he is in progress. I just would like for it to be resolved quickly so I am doing all that I can to help from my end as well.
Had I know it would involve all this extra work, I wouldn’t have downloaded the plug in. 🙁 Perhaps this is why there are so few downloads compared to the others online and in the WordPress system?! Either way, I believed in what you all had to offer and would hava liked to get it resolved
October 29, 2014 at 10:32 pm #20048Hi,
some themes will make 1 call to the google map api in every page (even if it’s not needed) and our plugin will make another 1.
In a theme like Enfold, removing their call to the google maps api is as easy as adding this line of code in the theme functions.php file:
add_filter( 'avf_load_google_map_api', 'gd_enfold_remove_maps_api', 10, 1 ); function gd_enfold_remove_maps_api($call) { return false; }
I don’t know how difficult it will be to disable it in your theme. that’s why a developer must have a look at it.
If you use a compatible theme, it doesn’t involve any work using our plugin and with a little work, it can be used with virtually any theme.
We are happy with the downloads, considering our plugin is only 6 months old and our competitor are years old.
Thanks
October 30, 2014 at 4:17 am #20060I have done as much as I could with this but the tables are everywhere: http://www.themphelpdesk.com/directory/
October 30, 2014 at 7:01 pm #20151Hi,
if you want I can move this in the job section of the forum, where developer can provide you a quote to integrate the plugin with that particular theme.
let us know,
Thx
October 31, 2014 at 1:49 pm #20202Yes, go ahead
October 31, 2014 at 3:11 pm #20208I’ve allerted John.
