    Hello, I’m testing and developing locally, so I can’t share the url. I’m using Divi 5 to build the site, so the configuration I currently have is the Divi Theme + the Divi Builder.
    –I note that you already have themes that can be used. I understand the Divi Builder works with other WordPress Themes.

    –My question is, before I go further is what is the best dev flow:
    A. Build with Divi Theme + Builder and modify those pages to work with GeoDirectory, or. . .
    B. Install the Plugin into a fresh local WordPress (LocalsWP) site and install GeoDirectory’s theme, using the add-on Divi Builder to build the site?

    Thank you for your advice.

    Hi,
    GeoDirectory themes work only with the free Blockstrap plugin, which is our own Bootstrap-based page builder that extend the WP editor.

    I would not use them with Divi, to be honest. Divi Theme + Builder is probably the best way to go in your case.

    Thanks!

    Thank you for this! I appreciate it very much. Based on the need, I’m looking at the visual images of the pages for the Real Estate Theme. (The focus is a search for homes for the handicapped and elderly which would deliver the list of available homes.) I think that I can build those template sections and then populate with data. But how? Do you recommend a very basic, newbie instruction I can follow to get to where I need to be?

    gratefully, M Mead

    I would use GeoDirectory + The Real Estate theme + Blockstrap plugin and just add the listings.

    This tutorial uses the Directory Theme, but the Real Estate Theme is basically the same thing with different look and feel. If you need any help, ask for support on our website. Our team will help you with everything you need.

    Thanks, Paolo.

    Would this work for me to test on my LocalsWP localhost site? Or do I need to set up a live site?

    Thanks for your clear advice. What we want to do is set up a test for providers to “buy in” to a subscription to offer their services. One of the providers has offered to test it. Of course, once I set up a pay button for the subscription to be in the group of providers, I’ll need a PayPal Account and a live site. So, am I wasting time setting up a local test site? Thanks so much.
