    Is it possible to have a widget that shows featured ads from all custom post types not just one? It is better and easier to have 1 widget for 10 listings than 10 widgets for 10 categories…

    Hi Dj,

    in the forum we have 1 rule for features requests: if you request something that will benefit the majority of the community, we will add it.

    If many users will +1 your idea, we will consider it.

    Thx

    Is there a board for requests or…?

    Also, I think that there should be that kind of widget. Because this one that we now have is silly… First, with this one, we have to have as many widgets as custom post types, and second, in this widget ads are displayed even if they are not featured… Which is stupid… What’s the point of purchasing a featured add if it’s not featured…

    Do you have the same names for fields across different CPT?

    What field names do you want to display across the different CPT in the widget?

    Have you tried these…

    I want to show all featured ads in one widget from all CPT categories.
    And non-featured ads should not be shown in that widget! But it does.
    The point of featured ads is to distinct itself from other ads…

    Hi,

    that widget wasn’t meant to show listings from all CPT, but 1 per widget and not only featured listings, but eventually sort by featured.

    Featured listing will appear on top of every other page, if sort by featured is setup in Places settings. For example in CPT page, category page or searches.

    We have in plan to extend widgets and maps to show from multiple CPT for those who need this, but can’t promise a date for their release.

    If you wish to build your own custom widget, you can start by copying the class of the widget you’re trying to use now in your theme functions.php file, rename it and tweak it to suit your needs.

    This can be find is: geodirectory/geodirectory-widgets/geodirectory_popular_widget.php around line 134.

    Thanks
