How exactly do you think multiple categories should be added to a directory listing?
<<But this could be subject to easy abuse (users adding their listing to every category),
so a reasonable category limit could be added (settable from the ACP)
<div class="fullleft">
<xen:if is="{$allowSiteURL}">
<span class="muted" style="font-size: 0.9em;">Site URL</span>
<div class="userin">{$directorylisting.website_url}</div>
</xen:if>
</div>
<xen:if is="{$allowSiteURL}">
<div class="fullleft">
<span class="muted" style="font-size: 0.9em;">Site URL</span>
<div class="userin">{$directorylisting.website_url}</div>
</div>
</xen:if>
Tomorrow, Tuesday (ish)... I've just found a couple of issue trying to make claimable listings "anonymous"
for instance, this: http://www.surreyforum.co.uk/reviews/guildford-cafe-rouge.402
isn't very anonymous when visting the thread list:
http://www.surreyforum.co.uk/index.php?directory/european-restaurants.177
Or new listings, etc etc..
The fixes are there, I'm just trying to sort this issue out
Yeah, it's an old bug that I keep fixing and then keep re-introducing, its a simple template fix (wmode=”opaque”), thanks for spotting itnot sure if this is a XF-bug or if this is coming from your add-on, but there is an issue on the search-box over the video at your own website.

To create a listing, you currently have to be logged in (it will ask you to log in when attempting to create one)1. Does someone who wants to create a directory listing actually be a member of the forum first or are they automatically a member once they sign up for their directory listing?
Yes, but next version you will be able to create your own listings (as the admin / mod) and set them to "claimable"2. And can you just confirm that the listing is created by the actual person placing the listing, not by the forum admin, correct?
Not currently, you would have to create your own work flow for this, revenue is something I will need pay more attention to in later builds. (another possible enhancement)3. The main purpose for my site to offer resource listing, is to achieve a revenue flow. Can the mod be programmed to charge clients before posting and per post or per month or on a recurring basis? If so, what is the sign-up and payment process for the end-user? Do they first pass some payment gateway (paypal) before they get access to place their listing?
Once again, I dont think the directory is quite where you expect it is. There isn't currently a revenue work flow for this plugin4. Canceling or 'hiding' a listing for non-payment: is this possible? Can the process be set on auto-pilot so that when people's listing become renewable they get an automatic email from Paypal that their listing is about to renew and their card will be charged? If their card doesn't renew we would get an email and at the same time the listing would go to 'unlisted' until payment has been made?
as above5. Is it possible to pre-program new-sign ups that that would give people the first month for free but then auto-renew at a monthly charge?
Yes, without the admins avatar (Anonymous will be optional for claimable listings)- are you saying you have coded a "Claim Link" and also the ability for adding Links anonymously (as Admin but without the Admin-avatar) ?
I created custom fields before XF provided this option, there are already 2 areas (each with 4 fields) that are customisable. I still need to look at the the XF customisable solution- did you also already include XF-custom-profile-fields, so giving the ability for adding custom-fields without using the fields you have created for your own website?
You can turn that off (its optional)Sorry to say, but what I do not like is the design of the "Filter". I would guess that the user does not understand of what to type into that box? At least I do not get it.
Currently there is no work flow to pay for listings, in affect the differenced between the two options you've suggested would be cosmetic (some prefer using the lay out of a directory to search for businesses)The other thing what might be confusing is: what is the difference of companies registering via the Directory (claiming a Link and probably paying for this) versus a company just registering via the Forum and not paying for it?
Can you explain what you mean, I've clicked it and followed through to the listing- the Link "European Restaurantsin Surrey" (Sub-Category) is unfortunately not click-able.

I agree, I'll add it to the to-do list- it would be great to build the "Main Categories" and "Sub-Categories" into the Bread-Crumb. This will give a better logic for the navigation. Currently this is a bit confusing....
Some how I keep fixing that, and it keeps coming backFound an issue Tenants...when the "Claim Listing" overlay pops up, the youtube clip sits on top of it:

I'm not quite sure what you meanI have been trying to make the right column in the listing a fixed width and the Google map fill the width of the center column but for the life of me Tenant, I just can't figure it out...any suggestions
- is it possible to have "Main Categories", but without "Sub-Categories" ? Having a huge list of Sub-Categories make the whole stuff look quite empty and is killing it. Would be great just to have the "Main Categories" and the company-names (company listings) listed just under those "Main-Categories". Then when you have a certain amount of companies underneath the main category, you put a Link named "See More" and go to a full list of companies (all threads).
