    Hi,

    it looks like the event has no categories, which is a mandatory field.

    If that is not the problem please provide admin credentials in a private reply and we will check.

    Thanks

    Also, you can try adding location specific text to (Near) search for Google

    The setting is at:

    Geodirectory – General – Search – Add location specific text to (Near) search for Google

    Try adding “United States” there

    Hello,

    Categories for events can first be created at

    Events Categories (from the menu)

    After you create a category, then visit your listings and apply the category to each listing.

    You should not use a zip code as a category.

    Zip code is part of the address information.

    About the redirection to the home page, please share the site URL and WP Admin credentials in a private reply and we will check on your site settings.

    Hello,

    I adjusted the settings at GeoDIrectory – Design – Navigation to set the menu items.
    lease review these settings and adjust to your liking.

    I was able to add events through the frontend and backend editor and was not redirected to the homepage.

    Please let us know if the issue happens again, and how we can take steps to recreate it.

    Thanks

    Try a hard reload to clear your browser cache. That doesn’t happen to me when I repeat what you did in the video.
