Did it work?

Which version of the business directory are you using?
If you’re running version 0.8.3 the changes below will allow you other URL’s. I don’t know if this change will still work in 0.8.4, however I looked at the code and I think it should work just fine. Good luck and let me know if this change will handle all the URL’s you’re going to throw at it.

The current implementation only allows very basic website URLs.
Unfortunately not everyone has a top-level domain

For example these URLs are not allowed in version (0.8.3 Beta):

https://www.somesite.com/
https://www.somesite.com/some-url-path/
https://www.somesite.com/some_url_path/index.html

A quick fix for this is to find this string in “functions.php”

/^http{1}s?:{1}\/\/{1}[A-z0-9]+[A-z0-9\-\.]*\.{1}[A-z]{2,4}$/

and replace it with

/^http{1}s?:{1}\/\/{1}[A-z0-9]+[A-z0-9\-\.]*\.{1}[A-z]{2,4}(\/([a-zA-Z0-9\.\-_])+)*(\/){0,1}$/

This will support the URLs above

I’m running 0.8.3 without any issues.
Please note though that I never upgraded to 0.8.4 due to that people listed issues with that release.

I haven’t tried the latest version yet. I’d stick to 0.8.3 for now.
Have you tried to clear your cache? Sometimes that will help.

Cats Eye Design,

It’s because in this file:
in https://www.pscacoaches.org/wp-content/themes/thesis_16/custom/layout.css

the width in this tag was set to 45%

.format_text input, #commentform input, #commentform textarea {
   ...
   width: 45%;
}

A smaller number like 25% would fix the issue but the way it’s currently setup the text edit field and the search button are both affected by the same width setting which I’d think is not very desirable.

I’m happy it worked. I haven’t upgraded to 0.8.4 yet. Did you use it with 0.8.3 or 0.8.4?

Additional Improvements. The complete address is displayed, plus a link that opens up the address in a Google map.

Note: Before attempting this please make sure to backup “main.css” and “functions.php”. This will also be very helpful just in case you don’t like the new look and feel. I tried to be as faithful to the original version as possible.

Update with minor graphical improvement

In main.css replace:

div.bizdir_list div.bizdir_listing {
	border-bottom: 1px solid #999999;
	padding-bottom: 0.6em;
	margin-top: 0.6em;
	margin-bottom: 0.6em;
}

with:

div.bizdir_list div.bizdir_listing {
        border-bottom: 1px solid #999999;
        padding-top: 0.6em;
        padding-bottom: 0.9em;
}
