    Hello we are experiencing an issue of updating version 1 of Geodirectory to version 2 and where looking for some help on figuring out the issues.

    The staging site we are testing it on is https://vrconcierge.staging.wpengine.com/

    Try the 2.5+ version of Payment Manager instead.
    The 2.0 version goes with GD 1.6+
    The 2.5 version goes with GDV2+

    So I deleted all the v1 plugins and addons and it seems the database has an error where it didn’t pull in the business hours and the addresses of the listings causing it to not display.

    Also the short-code of [gd_advanced_search] is not displaying correctly.

    Shortcodes for v2 are different, try, instead:
    https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/geodirectory/design-elements/#gd_search

    Did you finish the conversion process as described here? Where are you at in the process?

    I think I did the conversion wrong so what I did was I deleted the V1 plugins and reuploaded the V2 plugins in the backend of wordpress. Would this be the main cause of the issue?

    Lucky I did this on a staging site.

    Also the shortcode fix did work thanks 🙂

    Did you run the converter tool?
    GDV1 must be deleted before GDV2 can be installed, so, that sounds right.
    If you have doubts we would be happy to check just post WP Admin in a private reply along with the site login URL

    I did run the converter tool but like I said the post didn’t seem to keep the address data and the business hours data

    Business hours data was being kept by the 3rd party business hours plugin, not sure what we could do to help with that, but address data should be converted and available for V2.

    Please share your site info here so we can login and check on the address data.

    Can you please make sure to share the URL of a listing that exhibits and issue with address data?
