    Ah, thanks for the fix on the margins, much nicer!

    To itemize the rest:

    1] about the Design > Navigation: Enabling it once more I remember why I disabled it. I didn’t want the other pages as top-level pages. On reflection, I can see how Add listing in the top level nav is good. But it reads simply “Listing”. Can I change that to “Add listing”?

    1A] Place settings Q:
    Though I’ve gone in and customized the Place Settings, not all my changes show up. I changed the names of ‘Place’ to ‘Name’ (for Admin title) and Practitioner Name (for Frontend title), with a note in the Frontend description that are user-centred. Why do they not show up on the Add listing page as the other changes do? Is there anything that can be done so the words used can be more friendly toward the people who we’re reaching?

    (Jumping to an aside to explain the site within a site confusion, what I meant was that by keeping the GD home page as my Directory as a tp level page in the navigation, I’d lost how to find the Add listing and details pages etc. But never mind, now that I’ve put Add listing back in the navigation!)

    2] Thanks for the custom link, I’ll use that on call-to-action buttons. Thanks also for fixing the Add Listing page – I’ll be sure to leave Elementor alone, though that’s hard! You might have noticed I did add a headline, copy and button at the top of the body of the directory page (using Elementor) – will that be ok?

    3] About the design template for the pages, my General Settings for the website are set at:
    Content width: 72%
    Sidebar width: 28%
    I don’t understand why my settings for the rest of the site aren’t applied to the body of the GD pages – on those pages, there is no margin or padding on the left or right side of the pages, in the body (not the header).

    While I don’t want to get bogged down in design details right now, I’m sure I should be able to fix this eventually and welcome suggestions 🙂

    4] Thanks too for the link to the users plugin. At this point it feels a bit above me but I’ve saved it for later!

    5] Place Settings:
    I added a Select field for members to select their home chapter. I’m entering existing members, and when I select one chapter, save/publish, it defaults to something else.
    I tried the Multiselect field but after publishing, it would auto-select all the fields instead of the one I’d selected when completing a profile.
    What’s wrong?

    If changes are needed, then a custom field will work better. Use the Loginbox to get the URLs you need.

    If the settings have been exhausted, more changes can be made by using the translation method.

    Builders can interfere with the templates and will be overwritten on the template pages. We would not recommend using one on GD Home, but, some options may work, but aren’t supported.

    Please send over a URL and tell us as much as you can about what you are looking for there.

    The values are all set to 0. It is not necessary to use the values, just Brazil, USA Etc is fine. The labels can be changed while preserving the value, because, the field is only saving the value. So, simply, eg: Brazil, USA
    or add unique value: Brazil/123, USA/123123, etc/91823

    For the map zoom, find the widget settings for the GD Home Map and set “Auto Zoom” – CHECK

    for the body margin left and right, adjust the previous CSS like this, or adjust to suit:

    
    
    
    div#geodir-wrapper {
        margin-top: 70px !important;
        margin-left: 20% !important;
        margin-right: 20% !important;
    }
