    Hello
    I am having a bit of trouble to customize the payment levels
    /Some context:
    I want to create 3 different payment levels:
    -FREE
    -Silver
    -GOLD
    Silver and Gold are paid (with different service) while FREE is, guess what, free 🙂
    I want to use the free to “lead capture” (to upsell the plan) and fill the database for SEO purpose.
    my potential user are kind “computer impaired” (most of them don’t have paypal and some don’t have an email!!!) so i wanna as easy as possible.

    / end context

    – Is it possible to set a General logo for all the “place” without any image (eg: the Free plan will not have any image, but i ll put mine with a call to action on it – “Add your logo here”)
    – i m tried this: “WordPress Auto Featured Image” (https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-auto-featured-image/ ) but it s not working… (and this neither: Auto Featured Image from Title)

    – how to set up the ADD Place form so that it requests ONLY the stuff needed for their level (in the above mentioned case: free will have only name, address, category) – you can do to some extent (post field) but the description is always there…

    – setup fee – can i add a Una-tantum set up fee?

    – id there some “dynamic code” i can add near the description? Eg. Silver can add only ONE image… i would like to mention that…(i know can do editing the translation – but the message is less

    – is there a way to add some “buy extra feature” directly from the ADD place form (eg: i get a silver plan, which allow only one picture, but i want to add more… the website offer me the change “to buy” 3 extra picture for 1$)

    – Check out and plans: the GOLD plan is “expensive” – 30/months. is it possible to give discount to people who pay the full year upfront, the one who pay with paypal and so on? I can do it by creating a new plan, but in this way i m gonna give too many choice to the client, which will confuse him.
    i think it s much better (usability wise):
    STEP 1: choose plan A, B, C
    STEP 2: ADD Data
    STEP 3: Review and Check out – you have chosen plan B —> choose to pay monthly with paypal, yearly with wire transfer, yearly with paypal.

    Than it s today:
    Step1 : Choose plan A, B1, B2, C1, C2, C3, C4….

    – Does somebody know if this: http://quanticalabs.com/script/dynamic-step-process-panels-for-wordpress/125748 work with WPGeoDir?

    Thanks sorry for the many questions…
    but i ve not been able to find some deep tutorials

    1. You can upload a default image for each category when you create the category, so if users do not add any photos on submission, that image will be used.

    2. The Add Listing form will only ask for the fields allowed for the price package.
    The description is required, you cannot have a post without content in wordpress.

    3. If you set the lowest price package for a fee and never have the listing expire, it will be just as a one-off setup fee.

    4. You can add a description of your different price packages at “Title to be display while add listing” for each listing.

    5. You cannot sell an extra image, but you can create a new package that allows an extra image.

    6. To give a discount for monthly packages paid up front, create a new copy of the package, but with a discounted yearly price.

    7. How you describe Step 1, step 2 etc is exactly how it works. If you have different price packages they will all be listed on the top of the Add Listing form, and the first thing your users will need to do, is select the package they want.

    8. The “Dynamic Step Process” integration would hardly be possible without a complete customization.

    There is no harm in testing some of the above things in your site. As long you do not muck around with the code and just create packages etc, you cannot break anything and you’ll get to see how it all works.
