You know, Envato has plugins called must be. If your task is to create a catalog, manage it, change it depending on the requirements of the customer, you won’t find a better directory. Yes, many write - it’s complicated, there are a lot of settings at the backend... Look - if you need a bike - it's not that hard to make it in this plugin. But if you need a Boeing ... - then, after studying the docs, iif is not clear - ask the author (excellent support), and ... you will make (!) the plane using the same plugin. I am using lot of copies for years - believe me, I have not seen a better creation.

The instructions are not good, the adjustments do not lead to the right result

Hello,
Can you please tell us which instructions you are referring to exactly? We have also never received any support request from your account. If you are having issues, please contact support so that we can help you out.
Very functional but extremely cumbersome to customize. For example creating shortcode for certain views requires effort in the backend instead just configuring using parameters in a page or post. No way to display a single listing despite "being considered" for years. The author can be snarky about feature requests that would make the plug-in more effective (like cloning an existing directory) that are challenging due to the design. All that said the price makes it a good value.

Actually, these are already possible for years. If you need help, please contact support.
Cloning an existing directory is in our feature request list. However, please note that we have countless feature requests from a lot of users, therefore features that are requested by more users will get implemented first. Unfortunately, cloning a directory has not been requested by other users so far.
Before I was looking at other software, but the support couldn't even activate my license. Ha
This plugin does what its supposed to for WordPress users, which is convenient for me. Oh, and its a fraction of the cost.
Been working with this one for a while no. It's a great plugin and the documentation is excellent.
Updated for end of May 2023: Amazing support!
This is really a very well-made product. The developer was able to think ahead of many situations and made the plugin very flexible and adaptable. I've seen many other plugins and themes, and this is by far the BEST ONE. I hope it keeps growing and just getting better. It's definitely worth supporting it.
I have used this for a couple of clients like https://dezeedijk.amsterdam and it works like a charm. Frequent updates so I know that it will be continued. I recommend this above all the other directory plugins.
TEN STARS !!
too much work to customize if i knew i had to do so much i would't have bought

Hello,
There are many ways to customize the plugin, have you looked at the documentation? Also, we have never received any support request from you. If you need support with your issue, please contact support so that we can help you out.
Excellent plugin! Kudos!
✯✯✯✯✯ Support
Best support I've witnessed. Whenever I've had a question or issue, they've been quick to respond and extremely helpful in resolving the problem. Their dedication to their customers is truly outstanding. Super fast and super helpful!
✯✯✯✯✯ Code Quality
Impressively well-written. Easy to understand, it ain't hard to tell that the developers are highly skilled and know exactly what they're doing.
✯✯✯✯✯ Customizability
Even without custom coding, there are a ton of preset options and settings that you can adjust to make the plugin work exactly the way you want it to. You can create custom post types and taxonomies, define custom fields and categories, and choose from a variety of templates and layouts to display your listings.
✯✯✯✯✯ SEO-Friendliness
Because of the many built in SEO functions (OpenGraph, Schema, Aria-Label, Alt-Tags etc.), the Plugin is really SEO-friendly.
✯✯✯✯✯ Feature Requests
Feature requests are always listened to and taken into consideration if the implementation makes sense and is not too far away from the responsibility of the Plugin. If you dig a bit into comments and reviews, you can see how often features are getting implemented.
✯✯✯✯✯ Summary
100% the best of its kind. In every field. What else can i say? Over $250k+ in sales with an average rating of 4.82 is talking for its self. If you don't go for it, you're missing out..

Great review, thank you!
I need 10 Star
The perfect plugin for directory.
Tons of features.
Everything is available.
Hi! I'm revising my review from below titled "Other" in which I thought there was no working "claim listing" feature. (There is no edit feature to revise these reviews after they're posted on CodeCanyon.)
The author responded to me, and he is correct. If the administrator deletes his or her name from the author field when entering a new listing, a "claim listing" button will appear automatically on the new listing. When the business owner claims that listing, ownership of the listing transfers to the business owner.
With my main concern gone, I'm revising my review to 5 stars. This is a beautiful-looking theme that produced a marketplace so attractive and functional, I don't see ever needing to replace it, even when the marketplace is successful.
One caveat: We are not planning to charge money for our listings. So I have no experience with the theme if you plan to charge for your listings.
Can you put 6 stars?
This plugin is incredible! It took me a few days to get it right, but now I realize that it is very easy to use and it solved all the problems.
The support is very good, maybe it would be good if they make documentation in videos for beginners like me.
This plugin is great!
This Plugin ist fu**ing genius!!!
I was so excited to see what I could do with this plugin and Elementor but the usage stops at designing a listing page. Directory customizations are specific to ONE theme the dev uses. Most widget shortcodes don't work. I'm pretty disappointed, but mostly because this still seems to be the best plugin on the market. If the dev could buckle down with a solid team and make this plugin work fully with the top page builders, with reliable shortcodes and widgets this would blow the competition out of the water. Until then.... it's feature-rich on the surface only but will get the job done so long as you don't have a design heavy brand/website.

Hello, Directories Pro customizations are NOT specific to just one theme, as you mentioned. You can always modify the template files included in the plugin if you need full control over how the directory looks like.
