Onokazu, please tell me if you’ve brought back the “fix listings to the top” feature in the new version? So that cards are fixed to the top regardless of the sorting type selected.

Onokazu, please tell me if work is currently being done to fix the logical error related to uploading reviews to listings with the Permalink structure “FLAT” + slug ? https://shkoly.com.ua/pryvatni-dytsadky/%slug%

I’ve conducted extensive testing and found that the error disappears if I select id instead of slug in the Permalink structure “FLAT.”

When will you fix this error? Uploading should work with the Permalink structure “FLAT” + slug

Your previous recommendations to create a page with the “reviews” slug didn’t work. https://shkoly.com.ua/reviews/ As you can see, the button for loading other reviews stops working and an error is visible in the console. )

The cause is elsewhere. Please fix this logical error.

Dear developer, please check that the “Login via Google Account” feature is working correctly in your plugin.

A dangerous situation has occurred. An administrator logged into the site using their Google account. But instead of accessing their administrative profile, they were redirected to another user’s profile (most likely the profile of someone who had previously logged into the site using the same Google account). I don’t know how this is possible. This is a serious security hole.

Dzhuma Purchased

The most likely options:

Error in the authorization logic after logging in via Google. For example, after Google Login, the user_id of the previous user remained in the session or cookie. When you logged in with a regular login, the code did not update this user_id. The session is being created incorrectly.

Dzhuma Purchased

UPD: (This is most likely a user profile that previously logged into the site using a completely different Google account.)

Dear developer, could you please let me know if you’ll be reinstating the option to pin listings to the top by checking the “Recommended” checkbox? Or have you permanently removed this option in the new version (reworking the “Recommended” option into a sorting type)?

Previously, if we checked the “Recommended” box, cards always remained at the top of the list, regardless of the sorting type selected. This option helped monetize the project.

Hi guys, i cant use my licence, any advise pls

Hello,

Please clarify what you mean by you can’t user your license.

i change my hosting provider and now i get this: [directories] directories-pro: Please enter your license key. Im using my license. Any advise?

When a WooCommerce Subscription is cancelled or expires, does the associated directory listing automatically unpublish?

Hello,

Thank you for using Directories Pro.

Yes, it does.

We’re migrating an existing directory over to DirectoriesPro but when we’re manually entering the new listings into DirectoryPro, there isn’t an option to assign a payment plan. Can you assist with this?

Onokazu? Are you able to assist please?

Thank you for your assistance Kazu. All working as it should be now :)

Hi, since after your brand new evolution of this plugin, the frontend EDIT button stopped working. Why is this so and can you kindly link us to where we can download the older model (original) of this plugin, so of us may want to stick to it, if this new model isnt workind as needed. Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for using Directories Pro.

Unfortunately, we do not have older version available for download. If you have a valid support package, please contact support and we can create an older version package and send it to you.

You skipped the first part of the question that talks about the EDIT button not working and went straight to the part that could lead me to pay more money for a plugin that aint working as should. Pls when would you post an update that would fix the EDIT button ? That’s all am interested in. Thanks.

We’re not able to reproduce the issue or have similar report. If you need support, please contact support.

Demo is not working Tried multiple times, its not logging in

Hello,

Thank you for using Directories Pro.

We do not see any issue with the demo. Please try again.

The latest update broke my entire directory. It changed all of the slugs – for categories, listings, etc. Incredibly frustrating to have to spend hours trying to fix everything.

I figured out how to switch individual listing URLS back to the compatible version but Custom permalink URLs cannot be set up for categories and other taxonomies as indicated in the documentation – There is no option to revert to v1.14 except for listings. https://directoriespro.com/documentation/advanced-customization/seo-features.html

And another thing that broke with the update… the shortcode that used to work for displaying individual listings no longer works and has broken multiple pages on my website – [drts-entity id=”34836” display=”summary-playgrounds”]

I know this isn’t a support forum but there doesn’t seem to be anywhere else to share bugs and other feedback without paid support.

Congratulations on the latest update with its great improvements! Regarding the booking system, do you plan to add a payment option? And if so, what’s the timeframe? This would eliminate the need for dedicated online booking plugins (rent, events…)! Thanks for your reply

Hello,

Thank you for using Directories Pro.

We do plan to add that feature. However, it is still only in the planning stage, so we’re unable to provide a timeframe at this time.

Please note that this will require using Stripe as the payment gateway. We do not plan to implement this feature for other payment gateways.

Hello ! Great news, and no problem for stripe. Thanks a lot.

HI Admin please reply above,so that i can purchase after and what is the support policy?

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in Directories Pro and we’re very sorry for the late reply.

> 1. I want use this plugin in elementor based blog website. I am currently using Soledad theme. is this plugin will work well with the soledad?

Unfortunately, we do not own that theme, but it should work fine. If there are any issues, they will most likely be minor display issues. Please let us know, and we will resolve them as soon as possible.

> 2. There will be a classified menu or link on header. On click of that link classified page will open?

We assume the menu or link you mentioned is created outside of Directories Pro. In that case, you can simply link it to the URL of the directory page.

> 3. Do this plugin has an option to create packages, where customer can select the package and pay online on the website?

Yes, you can use memberships – see https://directoriespro.com/documentation/user-directory-and-memberships/memberships.html

Or if you prefer charging users per listing, you can enable payments for listings in your directory – see https://directoriespro.com/documentation/monetization/setting-up-payment-and-payment-plans.html

> 4. Is there an option to create the both paid and free packages?

Yes.

> 5. What payment gateways can be connected?

If you use WooCommerce, you can use any payment gateway supported by WooCommerce. If you prefer not to use WooCommerce, Stripe and PayPal payment gateways are currently available.

> 6. Advertising in classified for new and update customers will not be published until Admin Approves.

You can use the “Puslish Listings” permission – see https://directoriespro.com/documentation/additional-features-and-settings/permissions.html

> 7. Is there any email validation available in the directory for new registering customers to avoid and junk accounts?

Yes, please see https://directoriespro.com/documentation/frontend-submit-and-dashboard/user-login-registration-and-guest-posts.html#email-verification

> 8. Can we set the limit of images and videos in each package?

Yes.

> 9. Is there any listing/directory customers/users login/accouny creation option? So that customer can choose the package and signup by paying on website to post he listing?

Yes, you can enable memberships, as mentioned in the reply to question 3 above.

> 10. Suppose customers has created an account to post his listing in classified/directory. Will he be only have limited access to his listing or he can access any other part or content of the website?

By default, users can access other content on the website. If you want to restrict access to certain content by memberships, that is also possible. please see https://directoriespro.com/documentation/user-directory-and-memberships/memberships.html#restricting-content-access

Please note: After updating the Directory Pro plugin, the “Load More” button in reviews stopped working. The console displays an error. Please fix this bug or conflict in the next update.

The listings page works fine. There is an issue with reviews (and taxonomies) because the permalink directory/%slug% causes a conflict with directory/reviews. There is no such conflict with the listings page. As mentioned, for now, you can create a WordPress page with the slug set to “reviews”. If you need support with the listings page on your site, please contact support.

Dzhuma Purchased

The recommendation to “create a reviews page” didn’t solve the problem. I created a reviews page and even placed this shortcode on it, but as you can see, loading new reviews doesn’t work—so there must be something else going on. [drts-directory-view directory=”schools” type=”review_review”]

We’re sorry, but if you need further support, please contact support.

Hello Onokazu, may I make a suggestion…I noticed after adding an element under wp_shortcode, this custom field does not appear on the export form and therefore can also not be imported. This means having to manually add data for this custom field on every post. It is an important field as it is the only field that allow one to embed videos via iframe on the front-end which. Perhaps this can be sorted in future update or is the current state a deliberate default setting?...Thanks and Great Job on the plugin!

hello Onokazu, what i mean is, I went to; “Manage fields > Add Element > Wordpress Shortcode” and gave the field a name e.g field_shortcodes

It is visible when add/edit a single listing in the directory backend or front-end. However, this field is missing when I try to export and import from the same directory I created it for. Hope that helps

You’re right, we will add this in the next update, v2.0.9.

awesome! Will “quick edit” on the back-end for individual listings return as well? It looks like once i save a post, i can no longer rename the post_slug like i used to….

I am looking for a business directory plugin for my event favors website. I need a listing options for venues like wedding, kids parties, corporate etc. So their listing options are not going to be the same. Example: If a customer is looking for a wedding venue they need to be able to search criteria for wedding venues and not for kids party venues etc. But I also want wedding venue owners to be able to list their venue based on set questions that the customer will be able to find them on: eg. Bar Facilities (This is something a kids venue would not offer) Please let me know if your plugin can do this or not

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in Directories Pro.

Yes, that is completely possible with Directories Pro. You can create multiple directories, each with its own set of locations and categories (or other custom taxonomies), and search each directory independently. If you prefer, you can also share taxonomies across multiple directories.

Hi Ono Kasu

I’m just about to purchase my fourth (!) copy of Directories Pro and have a quick question.

Is it possible to use data stored in a directory in another directory ?

For example, if I have a Hotels directory and a Restaurants directory, can I use a field stored in hotels in the restaurant one by calling the field name, eg. by using an HTML field or an ACF one ?

If this can be done, what field should be used and what is the format that I need to use to make this work ?

Thank you !

Hello,

Yes, that is possible. You can use the Reference type field. For further support, pleaes contact support as this page is for pre-sales questions only.

Hello,

We are not able to reproduce any issue with the categories field. It could be caused by a conflict or a setting issue. fI you need support, please make suer that you have a valid support package for your license and contact support as this page is for pre-sales questions only.

Hello,

We have bought multiple (5) licences for this plugin and been using it for a long while. Thank you for developing it, I really enjoy building directories with the plugin due to the flexibility it provides. I have a problem to mention though:

After the recent update I tried Recounting Posts in System – Tools (I needed to do it as some categories were not showing after two plugins merged into one), the process runs until a moment close to the end and no matter how many posts we have (a site with 100 posts and a site with almost a 1000 posts), when it’s very close to the end it gets stuck with the following error: An error of type E_ERROR was caused in line 181 of the file /home/[server-name]/www/[site-name]/wp-content/plugins/directories-pro/lib/components/Entity/SystemTool/RecountSystemTool.php. Error message: Uncaught TypeError: array_keys(): Argument #1 ($array) must be of type array, int given in /home/[server-name]/www/[site-name]wp-content/plugins/directories-pro/lib/components/Entity/SystemTool/RecountSystemTool.php:181 I also see an error on console in the browser: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500

The posts are recounted and I can see categories, but I believe it’s something you probably would like to fix or it would help if you could share if that’s something on our end.

Best regards. Let me know if you would like to receive the full log, please, I can email the full log.

Best regards.

Hello,

Thank you for using Directories Pro.

We are not able to reproduce the issue so we are unsure why that happens on your site, but will see what we can do in a later version of the plugin. fI you need support, please make suer that you have a valid support package for your license and contact support as this page is for pre-sales questions only.

Hi there, I am writing to report a bug I am experiencing with the “Report” feature in the latest version of the plugin.

The Issue: When clicking the “Report” link on a listing, the modal popup opens but remains completely blank.

Upon checking the browser console, the following fatal JavaScript error is thrown:

Uncaught ReferenceError: e is not defined at Object.complete (core.min.js?ver=2.0.6:1:13509) at c (jquery.min.js?ver=3.7.1:2:25304) at Object.fireWith (jquery.min.js?ver=3.7.1:2:26053) at l (jquery.min.js?ver=3.7.1:2:77910) at XMLHttpRequest.<anonymous> (jquery.min.js?ver=3.7.1:2:80265)

Hi Onokazu,

I am currently utilizing the User Directory feature. While it is a great addition, I’ve noticed a significant limitation regarding organization and filtering: there is currently no native way to assign or manage hierarchical taxonomies (like Categories or Locations) specifically for Users.

The Problem: Without native taxonomy support for users, it is very difficult to create a functional frontend filter. While custom fields can be added for “Location,” they do not support hierarchical structures (Parent/Child) as effectively as a native taxonomy does. Additionally, standard WordPress billing/shipping fields are not viable for frontend directory filtering.

The Request: Could you please consider adding an option to enable/assign taxonomies (Categories, Locations, and Tags) for User Directories?

Why this would be helpful:

Filtering: Users could filter the directory by specific regions or professional categories just like they do with standard Listings.

Hierarchy: It would allow for complex location structures (e.g., State > City > Neighborhood).

Consistency: It would bring the User Directory feature to parity with the Listing Directory, making the plugin much more versatile for membership-based sites or professional marketplaces.

Currently, the lack of these options makes it difficult to scale a user-based directory. I would love to see this integrated into a future update.

Best Regards

Hello,

Thank you for using Directories Pro.

Taxonomies can only be used with post types in WordPress. User directory uses WordPress user accounts, not post types so that is unfortunatley not possible.
