Featured Listing – where to set it?

There may be a bigger bug if it’s displaying all your listings on the plugin home page…

Only listings tagged “featured” should be showing up there. Are your listings tagged with anything at all?

Hi,

I have the same problem.
I would like to get rid of the “featured listing” banner on my plugin home page.
I haven’t set up any tags or featured listing thing on my directory
Can I make them not appeared as ‘featured listings”?

I’m also having the same problem. Three adds show up as “featured” but they don’t have a featured tag assigned.

I tracked this down, and it was due to my improperly nesting the taxonomy for the featured posts query. This will be fixed in the next release.

A temporary fix fir people using version 0.8.1-beta, you can edit the ldd-directory-lite/templates/home.php fiule, and remove everything from line 13 (<?php if (ldl_get_setting('appearance_display_featured')): ?>) to line 25 (<?php endif; ?>) and it will take the section off your directory home page. Don’t worry about copying this template to your theme directory if you are aware of that feature, as you actually will want that change overwritten in future updates.

Mark…What would be another fix if we wanted to keep the featured listings?

Could you point me towards the file I would need to edit to fix the the improper nesting issue?

Thanks,

Hi,
Not sure if this is the same topic, but I’m having another small issue with “featured listings” I’ve created and separate page “members” to display my directory listings, and have coded the shortcode [directory] on the page and they are displayed there….but I have around 20+ in my directory right now and all can seem to get is 3 displayed at a time (each time I refresh the page I’ll get another 3), but really want them ALL to show on my “members” page at same time.

Is there a setting or maybe a different short code or parameter I should be using. I’d tried the general # posts settings and few things with functions.php, but just can’t seem to get anywheres.

Any Thoughts or suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thank You

hi again…OK I found where the posts_per_page is set to 3 in the Template-functions and up’d that to 30 …so were good with that…but they are in random order…I would like them in alphabetically (title)…I changed the orderby to asc from rand ….but they keep coming up in descending title order?? I know I’m missing something here. How can I get that array in ascending title order
Thank You

Hi Mark,

Thanks, the fix you provided above worked for me.

Sorting lists by alphabet?
