Hi best directory plugin out there, I have only 2 listing categories is there a way to make the search bar category drop-down into buttons instead. thank you
Hello,
Does it mean that you would like to turn it into radio buttons? Unfortunately that is currently not possible.
Can Sabai Directory support nested listings?
I need to be able to have a listing for a business. This will have general information about their business. Address, contact info, logo, etc.
Then I need to have listings for the products of the business. Products can span a range of categories.
I would like to be able to find a product by category and see what other products and categories that business has. I also want to be able to see a business and find all the products that business produces.
In my case it is software products from software developers. A single software developer may have dozens of products in different categories.
So I need a business listing for the software developer. Then listings for each of its products.
Thoughts?
Hello,
There is no nesting feature but you can create multiple directories, and show listings from other directories in a custom tab. You will need to add a Paragraph Text field form Directory -> Listings -> Fields -> Manage Form, enable shortcodes under Display Settings of that field so that you can enter a shortcode for the listing to display listings from another directory using [sabai-directory] or [sabai-directory-listings] shortcode.
When I update my sabai trough your panel all of my translations are lost of the plugin.. Why is this happening?
Hello,
Have you put your language files under wp-content/languages/plugins? If you put the files there, then the language files should stay intact.
Hi, I want to not display category titles(http://demo.sabaiapps.com/sabaidirectory/businesses/categories/) but instead add the screen read WP class and make the images bigger and clickable icons, is it possible? How do I add the class?
Hello,
That would require modifications to directory_categories.html.php template file. Please see the following FAQ for more details on customizing the display with template files: http://codecanyon.net/item/sabai-directory-plugin-for-wordpress/4505485/faqs/15151
pre-sales question.
can i restrict few cities in location autocomplete field.
Hello,
Thank you for your interest in the plugin.
It is currently only possible to restrict autocomplete suggestions by countries.
i want to create directory website for 4 cities. is there any other way to search listing in these 4 cities only.
You can of course have your listings in those 4 cities only, then the plugin will search those listings only. It is just that the auto-suggestion feature can only be restricted by countries.
can i use custom field for this and use custom field as dropdown in searchform.
Yes, that is possible with the plugin.
how can i add custom field with search form like categories.
Unfortunately fields can not be added to the search form. What you can do however is add fields to the filter form from Directory -> Listings -> Fields -> Manage Filters
Onokazu-san,
Would it be possible to add a buddypress private message link on the listings so that people can choose to send a PM directly to the listing owner?
Hello,
Unfortunately that would require some amount of custom developed code.
Thank you for your reply. Any plans to possibly add this into a future release?
Currently no, but we will add that to the list of feature requests.
Is there a way to rate a listing using a 3rd party plugin such as wp review pro? I would like to use their plugin but it does not show up within the add listing page.
The wp review pro shows up for pages and posts but not your plugin. Also, short codes does not seem to work within your add listing content editor.
Hello,
Unfortunately that is not possible.
As for enabling shortcodes, please see the following FAQ: http://codecanyon.net/item/sabai-directory-plugin-for-wordpress/4505485/faqs/17465Thanks for the shortcode help.
Is there no way to add custom post fields like for ratings. Bassically I am trying to use wp review pro or any 3rd party review plugin to give reviews for the listing from the admin on the backend
Unfortunately I do not think that is possible. Technically that is possible, but will require quite amount of custom developed code.
Hi,
As the “add-listing procedure” is now, a user
1. selects a plan 2. chooses a payment method, for instance PayPal 3. is redirected to Paypal and pays 4. is redirected back to the site where he again has to confirm his order.
After this, the administrator has to manually approve the order.
Step 4 doesn’t seem logical. After a user has paid, he doesn’t expect (or want) to have to approve the order/payment again. Is it possible to change the redirect-url somewhere in the code?
And is there any way that an order paid with PayPal can be automatically approved after the payment has gone through?
Thanks.
Hello,
Unfortunately the 2nd step is currently required for the PayPal payment. We will see if we can remove this step if possible.
Hi,
Just to report same as user eddienegHi, after the update the pages for Dashboard and Add New listing, etc. are not showing up. I tried cleaning the cache and nothing. This update messed up my website.Thought that it was something to do with theme, then maybe permalinks, then other plugins, tried everything, but nothing worked… Even a clean new install on default wp theme gives error – Page cannot be found…
Hello,
Please contact support regarding this issue, so that we can send you a fix for this. http://codecanyon.net/item/sabai-directory-plugin-for-wordpress/4505485/support
Hi, I noticed today that my main directory page is showing all listing information instead of summaries. Also the popup boxes on the map show all information. Is there a setting somewhere? Thanks, Jos
Hello,
You can configure which field to be displayed on certain places of the plugin from Directory -> Listings -> Fields. Please take a look at the following FAQ for more details. The FAQ says it is for custom fields, but does apply to default fields as well. http://codecanyon.net/item/sabai-directory-plugin-for-wordpress/4505485/faqs/17466
Hello,
1: How can we change the plans of an listing during its period of validity? Example: plans 2 free months (60-day) to a level two months pay (premium ads) etc., the top button of ad just gives us the possibility to edit the ad without changing the plan!
2nd: I don’t understand the function claim except edit the ad and will not able to do again. I do not see the interest of it …... can you explain to me the function “claim (s)”
3rd: I created plans and ad-don plans, ad-don plans do not appear when creating a new ad, and not in the function claim ” claim ”????
The translation into French of sabaidirectory is very complicated!
thank you..
Hello,
1) Only administrators are allowed to change the current payment plan. If users need more features, you can provide those features as add-on plans.
2) The claim listing feature in a business directory site is a very common feature. Please take a look at the FAQ for more details on claiming listings. http://codecanyon.net/item/sabai-directory-plugin-for-wordpress/4505485/faqs/15158
3) Add-on plans can only be ordered on top of a base plan. Add-on plans can be ordered from the directory dashboard page in the frontend once the listing is claimed.
hello Kazu,
Can I do something like this with Sabai, and if not, do you have any plans of adding this feature anytime soon? This would truly truly be great help for me and I guess for everyone else. Please?
http://wpgeodirectory.com/addons/social-importer/thank you..
Hello,
Unfortunately we currently do not have any plan for that but will add that to our list of feature requests.
Hi! Is there anyway to give rating inside a listing?
Hello,
Sorry but I am not sure if I understood your question. If you mean that you would like to submit ratings when you create a listing, unfortunately that is not possible since ratings are calculated based on the reviews submitted for the listing.
Well it doesn’t have to be ratings based on reviews, just simple and easy way to show how I rate this listing independently from the reviews.
Unfortunately that is currently not possible.
Hi,
thanks for your Sabaidirectory, the three last plugins are very usefull, but since the last update 1.3.15, where can we found the list of shortcode updated http://demo.sabaiapps.com/sabaidirectory/shortcodes/ because since the last update the list is incomplete. Thanks.
Hello,
We’re sorry about the delay, but will be updating the documentation shortly.
How can I modify category thumbnails found here (http://demo.sabaiapps.com/sabaidirectory/businesses/categories/) from 32×32 to 300×150?
Hello,
You can try adding the following custom CSS rule to your theme style.css or a new file at wp-content/sabai/assets/style.css
.sabai-directory-categories a.sabai-entity-bundle-type-directory-category > img {
width: 300px;
height: 150px;
}
Thanks so much
It worked. but the cropping of 32×32 is still happening even after re-uploading the image, so my images look stretched, where can I change the crop setting of the thumbnails
You can change that from Settings -> Sabai -> File. You will need to re-upload the files again after the change.
Hi, I created new fields meta_title and meta_description for a good SEO they work well in the basic plan, but if I create a new basic plan they do not appear in the registration form. Is this normal? Thanks
Hello,
When you created another base plan from Directory -> Listings -> Plans, have you selected those fields under Feature Settings -> Fields?
Hi,
We have installed this directory plugin to our site http://bigacare.com. This was installed last year and we can open the dashboard > payment > plan. But now, when we go to the plan and make some changes it all shows in white screen. I disabled all plugins except to this but still no luck. Is there any fixed on this?
Thanks
Hello,
Is it that you are still running version 1.2 of the plugin? If so, which version of the plugin are you currently using?
We’re not sure about the white screen issue, can you try enabling the debug mode and see if any message shows up? http://codecanyon.net/item/sabai-directory-for-wordpress/4505485/faqs/17467
Hi onokazu,
Yes i am running Version 1.2.24. I did replaced the debug mode in wp-config. but still the same issue. It is still showing the white screen. Let me know what you need from me to help you solve this issue Thanks
We have replied to your same question via support e-mail, please continue on the discussion there.
Hi Onozaku,
I haven’t received any reply from the email support you sent. Anyway. I have error encountered when I upgraded the plugin this is the error I received : Fatal error: Cannot redeclare sabai_wordpress_directory_init() (previously declared in /home/bigacare/public_html/wp-content/plugins/sabai-directory/sabai-directory.php:16) in /home/bigacare/public_html/wp-content/plugins/sabai-directory/sabai-directory.php on line 18
Also the page where i put the directory is redirecting to know where and resulted this error as well.
The page isn’t redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.
So what I did was I reload my backup again to return it to normal as it is live site.
Let me know how to resolve those errors
Thanks
Hi Onozaku I sent you new login details for the development site via email for this because i dont want to ruin my live site. Can you please take a look and respond? Thanks
Hi, I am using the categories short code ([sabai-directory-categories]) in a widgetized area, the problem is that the listing count is not showing, it just shows the name of the category, how do I make the count show?
Hello,
Can you try clearing the cache from Settings -> Sabai and see if that fixes the issue?
On the demo category widget visible on directory page and hide on single listing. are you using any plugin to show certain widget on certain page? can you plz tell me which widget are you using?
Hello,
We use the Display Widgets plugin on our demo site. https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-widgets/I have install Display Widget but couldn’t figure our how hide category widget on single listing page as there is only directory page. could you please help me with setting so that only contact and map widget show on single listing. thanks,
You will first need to convert the single listing page into actual WordPress page from Directory -> Settings -> Pages.
Solved, thanks for the help. cheers!

I go to “pages” and find “Add Listing” page and view it… and get “404 Not Found” This page is empty (status is published) and was empty before and I never edit or add something in this page.
