Changelog
Added
- block editor (Gutenberg) blocks for the directory, each of its elements, the listing page's elements and the user dashboard and submit pages, with their settings in the block sidebar.
- the [webdirectory-listing-map] shortcode and Listing map element - the listing on a map, for a listing page laid out by hand.
- the Search form, Categories, Locations and Tags lists, Front buttons, Listings slider, Listing plans, Listings and Map work on any page: they show the default directory or the one in their Directory option (directory="..."), their links lead into it, and the search form opens it with the search applied.
- Settings > Address settings > Location levels - name the levels of your Locations hierarchy (e.g. Federal state, District, City); the names label the location tokens of the Address format and the location dropdowns of the listing form.
- in Edit Directory the Map element takes Fly to hovered map marker and Marker hover effect for the listing cards: hovering a card pans the map to its marker and opens its popup.
Improved
- Elementor and WPBakery offer the listing page's elements, the Tags list and the Term description too.
- the Pricing table element is now Listing plans, and shows the directory's plans or all plans.
- on a category or tag page the map opens where the previous directory page left it, or at the map's starting point.
- on a location page the map frames every marker of that location.
- in Edit Directory the Categories, Locations and Tags blocks take their depth and columns per page.
- in Edit Directory the Delete key removes the selected element, and the selection stays when you switch to a page that has the same element.
- in Edit Directory the map's height on a page can be a percentage: 100% runs the map down its row beside a taller element, never under a minimum height; a sticky map takes it of the window.
- the listings grid remembers the visitor's grid or list view, like the sort; with the view switch turned off the element's own view applies.
- dot markers and markers rendered as HTML (DOM) take the Marker hover effect too.
- a popup opened by a click or a card hover has a tail pointing at its marker, like the auto popups.
- saving an edited listing no longer needs the server to accept PUT requests, which some hosts and firewalls block.
- wp-admin says when no page shows the directory yet - listing links then lead to the plain listing address and open in the theme's post template.
- card images are sized for the view and screen the grid opens in - a list view thumbnail gets a variant of its own width rather than the whole row, and a grid on a phone one for its phone column count.
- in grid view Images as the last Card fields row sits on the card's bottom edge and runs to its sides, as the top image does, lined up along a row of cards together with a Price row set to bottom right above it.
Fixed
- a sticky element pins below the WordPress admin bar, and a full-height sticky map ends at the bottom of the window.
- with auto popups on, a hovered listing card always opens its listing's popup, out of turn and past the popup limit.
- an auto popup's tail reaches its marker - on dot markers and at a slant it stopped short in the air - and shows once the card has grown, not before it.
- in list view a card without an image (Images off in Card fields) no longer leaves an empty band where the image goes.
- a paid listing that waits for a moderator gets its whole period - the days until approval no longer come out of it, also when it is paid during the review.
- Settings > Address format - the + Field menu shows in full instead of being cut off at the edge of the settings panel.
- old sort links (?order_by=...&order=...) to a directory on the front page open the directory again, not the blog or a Page not found error.
- the space key works again in the listing description editor - a space typed at the end of a line was dropped.
- AI-assisted search applies the order a phrase asks for ("... with best rating") also when the phrase names a place, and the next phrase without one goes back to nearest first.
- a directory page built with Beaver Builder counts as the directory's page, also after it is saved, so listing links stay under it instead of falling back to the plain listing address.
- the same map placed twice on one page no longer leaves the first copy blank - the first one shows and the copy steps aside.
- the Search form and Breadcrumbs widgets show in Elementor's panel - Elementor's own widgets of the same name hid them.
- a Google map loads on a first visit or after the browser cache is cleared - it stayed blank when the map's settings arrived before Google's map library.
- the plugin activates while its free edition is still active, instead of stopping with a fatal error; the free edition is then switched off.
