    1) [Sidebar Widgets on Listings Page] I would like to have different sidebar widgets assigned to my venue listings page and others on my events listings page. For example: I don’t want the event calendar on my venue listings page, but it seems like i have to have the same sidebar elements on both the events listings page and the venue listings page. It doesn’t make any sense for my purposes since people don’t need a calendar in the venue page (where I only have restaurants). Is there a way to fix this? A way to have different elements for the “events page” that won’t show on the “venues page”
    2) [Ratings] Is there a way to allow people to do a star rating right on the listings page instead of having to go the profile page to click on the star rating. right now the star rating is greyed out on the listings page.

    Hello,
    1 – Install a plugin called widget logic, here https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/ and then on your widget add this code in the Widget logic area

    geodir_get_current_posttype()=='gd_event'

    this will be visible only to the events. change gd_event to whatever is the venue post type

    2- is it greyed out so users can not add a review? Have you enabled the reviews in WordPress?

    Hi,

    2) in listings page you can’t leave a rating, because ratings must be linked to a review (comment).

    Comments can only be left on the detail page.

    Thanks

    1) I feel the ratings option is hidden in the tabs within the details page and many users might not even find it if they are not looking for it. Is there a way to use a 3rd party rating system and disable yours? That way we could have it visible on the listings page

    2) Also, with this in mind. Is there a way to display items that are in tabs in the details page on its own. Ex: when you click on the details page that you could see a section with the ratings, a section with the map, etc…and not having to click on the tabs to view these items

    1) you would need to customize the plugin.

    2) This is possible too with custom coding. See here for more info: https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/tabs-in-single-view/

    Thanks

    Btw, would this help me set up a section on the details page for a restaurant menu? or a customized tab for “menu”?
