    Forgive me for another newbie question.

    I’m still feeling my around GD and trying to become familiar with the GD pages by creating sample pages to test etc.

    This sounds totally stupid, but how do I create a search, detail or author page? The home and listings pages were created but I don’t see the others.

    Please direct me.

    Many thanks.

    Hi Marsha,
    all the pages are automatically created.
    -The search page appears when a search is done, and in it you can add widget (you will find the Search section in the widget page, in Appearance/Widgets).
    A search can be done from any other page, using the GD Search widget.

    -Detail pages are automatically created when you submit a listing, and as per the search page, you can add widgets in the detail page.

    – Author page same as above 🙂 you’ll find the link in the GD > Loginbox widget

    Aha. Makes sense, now that you explain it.

    One more: Adding widgets to pages? I’m familiar with adding widgets to sidebars, footers etc., but not to pages. Is there documentation explaining how to do what you mention above, adding the GD Search widget to other pages?

    Thanks again.

    I was talking about the GD (virtual) pages, if you go to Appareances/Widgets you will find different areas such as GD > Home Top, or Content, or GD Listing etc..these are self explanatory, so for example you can place the GD Search widget inside the GD Top Listing page (where all the listings are listed).

    You can obviously place the GD widget in any other “normal” page, where a widget area is set, such as sidebars or footer area

    Thanks to you both.

    I had found that documentation on the layout. I was just confused on using the GD widgets on other “pages.” Perhaps it’s a question of terminology. I don’t think of a sidebar or footer as a “page.”

    I will experiment and work with the features more. I’m sure there will be other questions.

    Thanks again.

    Hello

    I there a sidebar widget area for the ‘Entering Listing details’ page? I notice there is a lot white space to the right and this could be made to good use.

    I see the code of ‘aside#geodir-sidebar.geodir-sidebar-right’. Just not sure how to attach a sidebar widget to this.

    Hello Gary, there is already a widget area for that page, it is called GD Add Listing Right Sidebar
