    Hi,

    What technique did you use to set up your GeoDirectory Experts directory addresses? I see they are geolocated by city/country but without a specific address. I am struggling to figure out how to set up my Services CPT the same way.

    Thank you.

    The address parts are just hidden when displayed:

    Users just change the Street Address to anything they like after dragging the marker on the map.

    Thanks

    So we basically delete the fields we don’t want to see, correct?
    This can be done at the back end as well? I currently add all my listings.

    Also, I want this to apply to only one CPT who are basically consultants that work from home.

    Users just change the Street Address to anything they like after dragging the marker on the map.

    Nothing is changed to the input process:
    1. Use any proper address or drag the marker on the map to lock in the lat and lng and the position of the marker.
    2. Change the street address to whatever you like, for example change “15 High Street” to “My Online Business”.
    3. Save the listing.

    It is nothing special or magic, it is default like that out of the box, both front and back end.

    I hope I am clearer now, let me know.

    If I make these code changes do they apply to all CPTs?

    Hi Justmark,

    Yes, the code from this article https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/changing-the-layout-of-addresses/ will affect all CPT’s. Let us know if you’ve further questions.

    Thanks!

    Hmmm. Ok let me think this through. It would probably make things less complicated but I am not sure if I want it to apply to all CPTs. Thank you.

    You can hide using CSS per CPT, it will still be in the source code though.

    @Kor

    I am trying out the code. So what do I do if I want to just show city and country as on GeoDirectory Experts? Do I delete:

    if($post->post_address){ $html .= ‘<span itemprop=”streetAddress”>’.$post->post_address.'</span>

    if($post->post_region){ $html .= ‘<span itemprop=”addressRegion”>’.$post->post_region.'</span>
    ‘;}
    if($post->post_zip){ $html .= ‘<span itemprop=”postalCode”>’.$post->post_zip.'</span>

    So it only shows the City and Country?

    Yes, that seems right. There is no harm in trying, especially not in you use Code Snippets.
    But that will change for all CPTs as explained.

    Thanks

    This definitely works. I may just play with the styling now. Thanks!
