    I just updated everything and have some issue:

    1. In my main Nav bar my Location Selector is gone and has been replaced by my blog page (called The Hydrant). See screenshot The Location selector used to be where The Hydrant is (The hydrant was never in the main nav bar). I have not made any changes or modifications to the setting since the update. Also a screenshot of the Nave bar settings is included for reference maybe the update changed something???

    2. I thought that the “Favorites” dropdown in My Dashboard was going to be returned in the new update but it is not there.

    I am using WP 4.0, X-theme, renew stack

    Any assistance is appreciated as always 🙂

    Cheers

    Hello Stacey, did you check if the menu is set (in Appearance/Menu)?

    And also, if the menu is set on GD (in Geodirectory/Design/ and then in the Navigation tab)

    Hi @Simone,

    OK, how The Hydrant got inserted in the Main Nav Menu I will never know – so I removed it.

    Second, you were correct I had to go to GD > Design > Navigation and RESELECT Primary Menu (under Nav Locations) and my Change Location is back in action. I wonder why this was erased during update?

    Hi,

    what do you mean by “I thought that the “Favorites” dropdown in My Dashboard was going to be returned in the new update but it is not there”.

    We never removed it.

    Please try to explain the situation with a little more details…

    Thx

    Hi @paolo,

    see: https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/some-my-dashboard-links-missing/

    See reply #17261 & #18048

    The bottom line is that My Favorites dropdown under My Dashboard is not showing.

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    for the search problem not using Fetch and going outside the search form, it is because of a customization.

    http://www.muttmaps.com/restaurants/ in this page the customize my search is open by default. That is the problem, it is opening it by default everywhere, even where it shouldn’t.

    Ask who ever did this to make sure it is open only when needed.

    Your favorites problem doesn’t have anything to do with that. In that case it wasn’t appearing because add listing was disabled. Stiofan fixed that, but in your case add listing is enable.

    Was that widget customized in any way?

    Let us know,

    Thx

    Hi @paolo,

    Search
    I did add a script to in GD > Design > Scripts > Header that I found in this post by Vikas
    https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/customze-advanced-search-widget/

    <script>
    jQuery(document).ready(function(){

    if(jQuery(‘.geodir-filter-container .customize_filter’).length){

    jQuery(‘.geodir-filter-container .customize_filter’).show();

    jQuery(‘.geodir-search input.geodir_submit_search’).hide();

    jQuery(‘.geodir-search input.showFilters’).hide();

    }

    });

    It seemed like a good idea to give a more facet search look & feel. I guess I will delete it because I do not know how to fix it. (but just goes to show that I do search for things before tormenting you guys 🙂 ). I just remembered doing this last weekend.

    Favorites
    Could you tell me where this “add listing” is? Just so I know. Everything there is show perfect!

    You guys rock!

    In GD >> Design >> Navigation >> Allow post type to add from frontend.

    If you had all post types disabled there, the favourite was not showing in the widget. That is the problem described in the link you posted and that Stiofan fixed.

    Your problem seems different. DId you customized the widget in any way?

    Let us know,

    thx

    I took out the script and everything is back to normal

    Is it Ok if you close out this as resolved and I open a new topic? The Search Widget when you put it in the sidebar is not responsive when viewed in full size.

    The search widget, having too many elements to look good in any sidebar has been styled by default to be used in the content area or a wider one.

    If you put it in the sidebar it will use still keep the proportion that make it look good in a wider area.

    To use the widget in the sidebar a little css customization is needed.

    You could take the css used for mobile and apply it to the desktop view too.

    Here Guust provided a quick tutorial that will get you started learning how to use firebug, find elements and respective css and modify it.

    @paolo,

    I did customize it with:

    .sidebar .geodir-loginbox-list li a.signin {display:none;}
    .loginform1 .geodir_form_row {display: none;}
    .geodir-loginbox-list li:first-child {
    display: none;
    }

    See post: https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/login-my-dashboard-issues/

    I am using Theme My Login for my sign Up / Sign in and I had to delete the login/logout in the DG Login box. The details are in the post above.

    I don’t understand how this would mess up the Favorites Dropdown, but not effect the other two (My listing & Add Listings) dropdowns.

    Cheers

    no, that wouldn’t be the problem. I’ll ask Stiofan to have a look and let you know.

    Thx

    My Dashboard is looking and working fine (for the first time) so whatever Stiofan did worked.

    The Main problem is the Change Location in the Nav Bar which is very messed up since update – I am missing states, I am missing towns/cities. Even if I have a state there ore towns missing in the state – it is a real mess.

    Stecey, please avoid posting about multi issues in multiple threads. I’ve already replied to your location switcher problem in reply to your topic.

    Thx
