 * I need some help with the best way to achieve something using wordpress.
    I have
   a directory site with listings from all over the world, with country, state, 
   city all stored as their own custom fields. The listings are also categorised
   such as ‘singers’, ‘actors’, ‘models’ using category taxonomy in a custom post
   type called ‘ad listings’. Make sense?
 * So, on the home page I have the list of categories as shown above (with a few
   more than this) and I want it so that when a user clicks on one of these categories,
   they will then be taken to a page with a list of countries on it. Once they click
   on a country they will then be taken to a page with a list of states for that
   country. After they click on their state, they will then be presented with their
   chosen list of Actors or Models or whatever they chose for their state and their
   country.
 * I want this to be dynamic as the directory is quite large and it would be impossible
   to make up a page for every type of category/country/city.
 * Does this make sense? And is it possible to do this in WordPress?
 * Ultimately I am looking to implement something similar to these sites

 * I’m looking for something similar. I don’t know if WP can achive this, maybe 
   with a lot of hacking.
    Right now I’m cheking Drupal which is more powerful with
   taxonomy. But I would like to do it with WP, let’s see if someone can help us.
