Hi but how cani change Search button color in home page?

Hi Darrel, i hope you are doing great, i am facing issues with this theme, the problem is the sign in form, once you are signed in on the website it's not showing that you are logged in until you refresh the page, which is a big issue, their support is saying check with bluehost you are using hard cache software, but people from bluehost i saying everything is fine from our side, there is no issues at all, so this is happening 2 weeks and obviously no one knows how to fix this issue. I will appreciate any advice from your side, thank you and have a great day!

Please dont buy Listeo. They are fooling customers by showing features which doesnt work. We purchased Listeo Last Nov 2023 and there system is full of bugs. When we pointed out genuine issues and bugs to them. They started gagging us by closing their comments section for us. They even started deleting our comments in the reviews. There reviews are all fake.

Hi, Darrel! Thanks for the video. Just want to task if I really have to give listingpro helpdesk the wp username, password? Also the FTP host, FTP username and password before I give these information to them. Thanks in advance!

Two Questions, In the Paypal Settings, is the IPN URL required? and If Yes What should it be? Thank You for a great Video

Great content! Thanks for sharing!

This was so awesome! Extremely thorough and detailed. I never felt stupid and that's so important to me with these tutorials. Darrell goes slow(not too slow) and repeats himself in all of the right places. I'm so grateful for this course...he helped me build this awesome directory for Film and TV Stage Facilities. Check it out at: in a few week! Thank you again-

does ListingPro Theme support Hebrew language?

No activity here in a year. It seems like people make themes, sell them, and then disappear. Are there any REAL companies out there that make wordpress directory themes?

@darrenwilson Can you edit the listing pages to make custom webs for different business?

Please see the attached image, and give me solution for this.

I'm ALMOST sold on this theme. My only questions is - can I have an "Events" page as my home page and then a link to a separate page that is for business listings. The theme says you can have more than one set of listing data, but just not sure if it can be on separate pages because of what you said about the search textbox being a part of the back-end - ie. you can just mess with it using Elementor. So just don't know how I can set up two seperate sets of listing data and have them on separate pages. One being home, and other being separate.

What about findall theme? its new and look awesome design and have many features!! didnt try it yet but what i see from demo

What plugin is compatible with the theme? loco or wpml

I have never seen anyone make a directory website for schools

Why wouldn't the businesses just list on the major sites?

the slider options under general relates to the listing banner images that scroll across the mobile page.

Thank you so much for this video! Super helpful and thorough. Literally watched the entire thing and going to start on my website soon! Cheers, Darrel!

Under "GENERAL" in mobile view/App View: The slider images will display on your phone or mobile device.

hey darrel, will this website provide the list of customers along with their contact info.

This video helped me a lot. When I was watching it, you mentioned a caching plugin that caused compatibility issues. I tried rewinding the video but couldn't find it. Do you remember which plugin you mentioned? Thank you.

Hi Darrel, Thank you so much. This is the best tutorial I ever follow! I have a question. How do I make to google only show me the US map? When I go to add a listing, I type the town and other countries show up. THANK YOU in advance for your help!

Thanks for the video, Darrel. Very informative. I wonder if I can construct a form for listing the price of multiple items in a listing. Of course, the form is for listing owner to input.

My sign in form doesn't show a new registration option or sign up

Can we make a sub categories in this theme

Hi Darrel
, thanks for the video. I'm stuck how do I add multiple locations for a business listing when displayed on Google maps.

Example. I choose Wal-Mart and I want to see all the locations for Wal-Mart pop up on the maps

Thanks

I love how you pronounce.... BuTTon

Thanks Darrel now iam on ChatGPP on your ch. But under Locations, there is "Description" then under that box
there is a statement "The description is not prominent by default; however, some themes may show it" does Listingpro have this to use? Is it useful?

Is there a way to hide a url in a listing, and replace it with a button or “visit website” text? Some urls are quite long. Thanks

Short text in box in user comments, sample text saying "Type: Great review covers food"
Any ideas on how to change it? thanks

Brilliant video

I request you to make video on how to back up listong pro website, mainly using the child theme? Translation of the Listing Pro website?

Hello Darrel i like te way teach, can you please help me with a video on how to program editors? Can I have your email address as to contact you for more orientation.

Hey, Darrel I noticed in the video, you stated that you were having issues with LiteSpeed cache, My Listing Pro theme is also experiencing issues. Wondering was there a alternative caching plugin you went with besides Lite speed cache, My website is Lagging heavily about 7 to 10 secs to display. Any help with finding a alternative would be very helpful. Thank you

Darrel je suis tombé sur ce tuto, merci pour le travail. j'aimerai savoir si la version française de ce cours est disponible. une fois encore merci

very helpful video! You showed how suppliers can activate their package/listing, but if a database has been loaded from a previous website, did you show us a way to connect those listings with packages and I missed it, or is that not a thing?

Hey Darrel, this listing site looks great. My deal breaker with this template is that it only allows for search by city. I am doing a world wide listing and would need City, State, and COuntry option. Is that possible with this template, or is there and add-on that I could use?

If anyone is having issues with Listings > Features Font Awesome fonts not showing, I was using the Better Font Awesome plugin and it wasn't working with some fonts. It may be obvious, but I switched to the official "Font Awesome" plugin and it works as intended.

Is there a trick to getting the monthly/yearly pricing to work. I get the sliders, but no packages show up. Thanks!

Hi Darrel, thx for the good video.
I bought your theme and started building my site with it.
It should be a niche specific directory and i want to seo optimize the main locationpages for keyword <service + city> to get some local traffic. What i want to do is adding niche and location specific content on each location page, some sentences above the listings and a bigger textblock below them.
I did not find a way doing that for big amount of locationpages. Maybe i am just confused and did not see it? Or wont that be possible?

Thx for your help

Hello can you answer me please, Published date of the listings can easily be undestood but I can't configure the expiration date of the listings. Can you help me where the setting is especially manually added listings by admin. Thank you.

Hi Darrel great video, I'm trying to build a business directory site for my city, have seen or tried Wilcity Theme? Or do you think Listing Pro is the best theme out there?

Apart from PayPal and the others, how do you set up the direct to bank/wire payments ?

Hey Darrel, thank you for the video, really help me a lot

But just wondering, which one better between houzez and listingpro, any idea?

thanks
