Extra listing information in search results

  • I would like to display custom data on the listing card in the search result. In this case, I would like to display an introduction to the description. In the directory builder, the part where we can select what to display per listing in the search results is very limited, forcing certain information to be displayed exclusively in specific areas or not even having the option to be displayed… This is even a criticism that I make. This part of the customization is very limited to predefined fields… An example is that in demos of themes that use the plugin, you put the price of the listing in the footer of the listing card, believe me, via javascript, and not along with the title of the listing as it is a unique option where the price goes into the directory builder. Is there a way to show this listing description on archive pages and search results?

    Hi @fan297

    Thank you for the query. We have an excerpt field you can show on the archive page template – https://prnt.sc/CH7tw0D9LTpH. If you add the “Excerpt” field on the add listing page then, the excerpt field will show on the archive page template.

    If you want to show the excerpt from the listing description as you explained, it will require some custom development. You need to override the template by custom coding. You can follow the documentation to learn more about this – Template Override (directorist.com).

    The templates that you can override to achieve this –

    • wp-content/plugins/directorist/templates/archive/fields/excerpt.php
    • wp-content/plugins/directorist/templates/archive/loop-grid.php
    • wp-content/plugins/directorist/templates/archive/loop-list.php

    If you find difficulties achieving this feature, please contact our support channel here – https://prnt.sc/cKSW-z2RTXrs. We will try to help you with this.

    Regards
