Update to V2 doesn't allow new listings

OK, GD Top widget space only works on GD pages… V1 allowed you to use widgets on any page, I have checked SHOW EVERYWHERE but still only applies on GD pages, which my front page apparently isn’t…

Ok, my GD V2 widgets are not working on Front page or other non GD pages, despite settings to Show Everywhere – hence no map on Front page or anywhere except designated GD pages…

also

The description issue – I can’t show GD>Listings without a full description showing as per previous pics. If I disable description in Settings, I lose the entire Profile Tab, as per images…

and

The Get Directions feed in the Output Locations doesn’t work, so I’m using the GD>Locations widget in the sidebar to get it.

Sorry if I sound like I complain a lot, but I’m hoping that my feed back will be useful to both of us…

Please don’t worry about the Get Directions thing, I am using the one from the widgets panel, not the one from the Outputs Location widget settings, which does not work (for me anyway)

GD widgets also seem only to work if I set the Page Attributes to GD Template, ok got it.

Please tell me how to show description for Detail page (Profile Tab), and not on the Sidebar and every other instance of that listing.

Sorry, I feel like we are missing each other completely. My problem is simple. I want to have a description on my Detail Page, and no description on the listings in the widget, best of or anywhere else. If I de activate Description on Output Locations Settings, it kills the description and Profile tab on the detail page…
Thanks for the pointers to shortcode builder, but it really doesn’t help my issue. Maybe I’m being stupid, but this is ridiculous.
If no description on every instance of what I want as just an image link with name, then no Profile Tab on Detail Listing. If detail page has Profile Tab and description, then every instance of Best of or GD>Listings etc includes a paragraph that I don’t want.
Attached are 3 pics
GD Description Active – show the description in the sidebar that I don’t want, but at least it has the Profile Tab on the actual listing main section
GD Description Not Active – does not show the description of each listing (perfect) also does not show the Profile Tab on the Detail main section…
GD Description active box is what I tick that gives me either of 2 options that I don’t actually want…

Where is the control function to allow me to have a Profile Tab and description on the Detail page, without including it all over my other widgets, or vice versa.
