    In v2 are listings which are members of a subcategory automatically also added as members of the parent category? This was the case in v1, but doesn’t seem to be the case in v2.

    Do we need to add listings to both sub and parent categories for them to show up on their respective archive pages?

    As far as I am aware,in V2 listings can be in child categories only.
    There is a bug with the maps on the location pages though. Listings that are not in a parent category will not show on the directory map.

    We are working on a fix.

    Thanks

    Thanks Guust. I looked at this issue again and found that I was wrong. The V2 listings added to sub-categories ARE also added to the parent categories. Also it is possible to add listings in V2 to both sub and parent, although I guess that’s redundant.

    The issue that I’m having is that I’d prefer if all listings for a category would show on an archive map, not just the listings on a particular archive page. Is it possible to show map markers for all listings in a category?

    This is what the docs say: Archive – For use in the Archive and Search page templates. When shown in an archive or search page this map type will automatically display the listings that are shown in GD Loop on that archive page.

    Add this to the archive map shortcode:

    all_posts="1"

    Or find the setting “show all posts” if using blocks or widgets.

    Thanks
