Does your latest version resolve the security issues reported which made it get removed from the available plugins here on www.remarpro.com?

ahh crap I totally missed the bit about nonce!

Thanks for replying!

Hi Steve

Thanks for the reply, I’ll send the info over to you via email shortly.

In the meantime did you have any thoughts on customising the search form radio buttons for departments?

Thanks
Sadie

Thanks Guido – that’s perfect!

Working great now ??

Hi Guido

Thanks for the reply

Sorry maybe not clear, I’ve got all my logged in user stuff working perfectly – what I need is to know what category of event the event is in.

I already have a single-event page setup, checking if the user is logged in etc. but it needs to be private (logged in) for one of the 2 categories events only – not the other.

Does that make sense?
Thanks
Sadie

ahhh OK thanks – I didn’t realise that when I was going through the documentation, at least I know I wasn’t breaking it!

Thanks for your reply again.

I’ll suggest to the website owner that they can buy the plugin if we need to customise the layout any further

No problem, a reset button would be a great addition.

Ideally for our use we wouldn’t use the search boxes and instead would just have the category icons as per your examples (https://www.salephpscripts.com/wordpress_directory/demo/documentation/#directory_categories) but I can’t get the shortcodes to work so we’re having to use the default directory and change the settings to suit.

Whenever I use shortcodes other than the standard [webdirectory] they just output as text!

Any idea what I might be doing wrong with it?

I use Genesis if that affects anything – everything else works, just the shortcodes other than webdirectory!

Hi Shamalli,
Thanks for the reply.

Is there any way you could have an option to make them only searchable by presets (ie the categories / locations added in admin) instead of free entry (ie use the select function and not input)? Or would that be tricky to implement with the current setup?

Or even clear the input when focusing back on the field again – I tried to do this in the code but couldn’t work out where it was being generated
Thanks

Hiya

In order to get the functionality I used you need to have the ‘show parent categories in category list’ not ticked. This means that when you go into the subcategories it lists the child categories – but the CSS I posted hides them on the main page.

Hope this helps

No problem, I added the following into the wpbdp_custom_style.css file in the custom theme folder:

.wpbdp-main-page ul.children { display:none }

This is the single bit of code that hides the subcategories on the homepage of the directory. I’ve then got various other styles that control the layout and design of this page and the listings pages etc.

Hiya,

I’m sure they would love to be featured in the showcase, just waiting for client sign off on another project which will likely use the directory so I’ll be delving back into the CSS customisation soon ??

Miroslav – let me know if you want me to post the specific CSS that did the customisation above if you need it.
Sadie

Hi Miroslav,

I ended up using CSS to hide the subcategories on the main directory page – so the directory is set to show child categories in the settings -but then I override it and use display:none; for the child list in the CSS. This is not ideal, but it was the best solution I had to achieve what was needed.

I heavily customised the CSS of the directory to get the layout and design to look right within the website in the website linked above.
I hope this helps.
Sadie

I was looking to see where the subcategories were formed but couldn’t find the code for it, so I’ve simulated it with CSS instead until I have more time to work on it:

I’m also trying to sort this – On the main page of the directory it only displays the top level categories.

When a user clicks into the category I would like them to see the subcategories at the top and then the listings underneath – but I can’t find a way of displaying the subcategories. Are there any functions I can call which get the subcategories of the current category in the template file?

Thanks,
Sadie
