GeoDirectory Page Issue

GeoDirectory Places detail page only showing description

It sounds like the GeoDirectory Places detail page on your WordPress site is only displaying the description, which may be due to several possible issues. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot:

### 1. **Check GeoDirectory Settings**
– Ensure that the display settings in GeoDirectory are configured correctly. You can find this under **GeoDirectory > Settings > Single Listings**. Make sure that all the sections you want to display (such as location, contact info, etc.) are enabled.

### 2. **Theme Compatibility**
– Sometimes, a theme may override the default layout of GeoDirectory. Check if your theme is compatible with GeoDirectory. You can temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme (like Twenty Twenty-Three) to check if the issue persists. If switching themes resolves the issue, then it's likely a theme-related conflict.

### 3. **Template Files**
– GeoDirectory uses specific template files for rendering the listing details. Check if the **single-listing.php** or **content-single-listing.php** file exists in your theme or GeoDirectory plugin folder. If the file is missing or customized incorrectly, it could cause the page to display only the description.
– You can override these templates by copying them into your theme’s folder. Ensure that the necessary elements like location, images, and custom fields are included in the template.

### 4. **Custom Fields**
– Ensure that the custom fields (for location, images, hours, etc.) are properly configured and assigned to the listings. Go to **GeoDirectory > Listings** and check the individual listing details to confirm that all the fields are filled in.

### 5. **Plugin Conflicts**
– Disable other plugins temporarily to rule out any conflicts with GeoDirectory. A plugin conflict could be preventing other sections of the listing from displaying.

### 6. **Check for Errors**
– Check for any JavaScript or PHP errors that might be preventing certain elements from rendering. Use the browser’s developer tools (F12) to inspect the page and check the console for errors.

If the problem persists after these steps, it might be helpful to provide more details, such as any recent changes to your setup or customizations you’ve applied.

we are using twenty twenty four theme

User is using the Twenty Twenty-Four theme in their WordPress environment.

Since you are using the Twenty Twenty-Four theme, let's focus on how it may interact with GeoDirectory. Here's what you can check:

### 1. **Check Template Compatibility**
The Twenty Twenty-Four theme might not have specific templates for GeoDirectory listings. Ensure that the GeoDirectory templates, like `single-listing.php` and `content-single-listing.php`, are available in the theme folder. If not, you can copy them from the GeoDirectory plugin folder into your theme’s folder (usually under `wp-content/themes/twenty-twenty-four/`).

**To override templates:**
– Copy the template file from the plugin folder (`wp-content/plugins/geodirectory/templates/`) into your theme folder.
– Customize the template if needed to display more information like images, contact details, etc.

### 2. **Check for GeoDirectory Shortcodes**
Make sure you are using GeoDirectory’s shortcodes correctly in the page builder or page settings. Sometimes, certain shortcodes for displaying content (like location, business hours, etc.) need to be added manually.

Some common shortcodes:
– `[geodir_single_listing]` – Displays the single listing details.
– `[geodir_listings]` – Displays a list of listings, if relevant.

### 3. **Inspect the Content Area**
– The Twenty Twenty-Four theme might be applying its own styles or structure that affects how the content is displayed. You can use the browser’s developer tools to inspect the page and see if any styles are hiding or limiting the content outside the description field.

### 4. **Theme Customization**
Since Twenty Twenty-Four is a block-based theme, you might need to adjust the layout through the block editor. Try creating a custom template or block layout for the GeoDirectory listing pages, ensuring that all necessary blocks are included to display additional information like images, maps, and custom fields.

### 5. **GeoDirectory Widgets**
– Ensure that the required GeoDirectory widgets are added in the relevant widget areas. These widgets can display additional information like images, ratings, and other fields, and might not be enabled by default.

After reviewing these steps, if the issue persists, you might want to check the GeoDirectory documentation or their support forums for any known issues with the Twenty Twenty-Four theme.
