Number of listings on search page

I cannot replicate that on my test site. I’ll get Kiran to have another look as to why https://planmy.wedding/search/?geodir_search=1&stype=gd_hochzeitslocation&s=+&snear=&spersonenzahl=&sgeo_lat=&sgeo_lon= does not show all listings on the map.

Map widget shows all markers on map for one of following conditions:

– If current page post type archive page, showing all listings in a CPT: https://planmy.wedding/hochzeitslocations/

– If current page category archive page, showing all listings in a category: https://planmy.wedding/hochzeitslocations/category/hochzeitslocation/

– If current page is search page and category searched(spost_category), showing search results if a category is searched too: https://planmy.wedding/search/page/3/?geodir_search=1&stype=gd_musik_entertain&s=+&snear&sgeo_lat&sgeo_lon&spost_category%5B0%5D=245

Sorting options never show on search pages, only category and CPT pages.
You can add the “GD > Categories” widget or shortcodes, for example see https://planmy.wedding/aaa/

When a user on the front page in the main search bar chooses a category and klicks the search button, this will take him to the search page where all the search results are shown. Right?

Yes, for that category.

And as a user at this stage, I would expect to be able to find some sorting options in order to sort my search results. However, from your message I understand that on the search page for some reason sorting options are generally never displaid at all. Right?

Correct.

In order to have sorting options, the user must choose a category from a widget or some navigation in the main menue – but NOT via the main search bar. Is that correct?

Correct.

If this is correct, this doesn’t really seem logic to me.

The principle is that when you SEARCH for something, you expect the result to show what you searched for, just like that. There is no need to sort, because the results are ordered by relevance to your search. For example, if you search for “mouse”, the results will show you listings first with mouse in the title, then listings with mouse in the description but not the title etc.
If you just search for anything in a category without choosing to narrow down your search, why would you expect anything else? If you wanted something else, you would have searched for it.

But if you just want to see all listings in a category, then it makes sense you go to the category page, not the search results page. And there you can sort.

Although this is for V1, the same principle applies for V2: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/searching-and-browsing/

I guess you updated Supreme and lost the modifications.
You have to make sure you keep the modifications to
