Hey @patsky
I’m glad you were able to sort it out! 🙂
Hey there,
It actually looks like it changed when we changed the way the links work. Try this instead:
.listing-title a {
font-size: 1.8em;
color: #336699;
text-decoration: none;
pointer-events: none;
}Hi @patsky
Thank you for reaching out about this.
Although we generally don’t provide CSS code, I had another customer who used this CSS solution and it worked for them:
.wpbdp-listing a:not(.wpbdp-button) {
pointer-events: none;
cursor: default;
color: #323845;
text-decoration: none;
border-bottom: 0px solid #F3F3F3;}It’s the pointer-events you need to lose to remove the links.
I hope that helps. Please try that and let me know if you run into more issues.
Hi @salpetriere
Thank you for reaching out about this.
That’s something we can consider for future development, but not something the plugin allows for today. With a small team and a big product roadmap, we have to pick new features based on the value they’ll add to the most users possible. We’ll consider this for future development, but we can’t make any specific promises on timeframes right now as we definitely have a full plate of things people are asking for.
If there is an import feature in MailChimp, you may be able to use our export function to create a CSV file that you could import into their system. You can learn more about exporting listing information in our Knowledge Base here: https://businessdirectoryplugin.com/knowledge-base/csv-import-export/
I hope that helps.

I’m glad you found the issue! We typically keep everything up to date with WordPress requirements, so I’m not sure the cause of this problem either. We’ll keep an eye out for more cases in the future, though.
Best,

Hi @reneyoung
That may be the way to go since I can’t reproduce the problem on my sites. Did you change the theme you were using as well?
Please let me know what you find out.
Hi @reneyoung
I’m sorry to hear that you ran into issues with this!
That shouldn’t be an issue. Can you try reinstalling Business Directory Plugin to see if maybe your version is corrupt in some way?
If that doesn’t work, we may need to do a full conflict test. Theme and plugin conflicts are very common in WordPress, and a conflict test is used to help determine the cause of the issue. Here is an article about how to test for theme and plugin conflicts with Business Directory, which may help pinpoint the issue: https://businessdirectoryplugin.com/knowledge-base/how-to-check-for-plugin-and-theme-conflicts-with-bd/
Before doing a conflict test, it is a best practice to take a backup of your site before beginning or to do the test on a staging site, in case any settings are changed during the process.
Please try that and let me know what you find.
I’m sorry to hear that you ran into issues with this!
There are two places you need to turn on registration. First, in BD, go to Directory > Settings > General tab, > Registration sub-tab.
The second place is in WordPress itself. Go to Settings > General to turn on Registration for your site. The default should be subscriber.
There is also an option to make the account creation a part of the listing creation process that would bypass the emailing process, allowing a new user to register on your site easily and they would never leave the listing submission process. To allow that to happen, the setting is in the same place as the first setting mentioned above — at the bottom of the page — Directory > Settings > General tab > Registration sub-tab.
I hope that helps. If there’s something else I can help you with, please let me know.
Hi @gerdski
Thank you for reaching out about this. Sorry that you ran into trouble with this. I couldn’t see anything on the link you provided. Can you please send me a direct link so I can try placing an ad?
If you’d like to submit that information privately, please contact us with a link to this forum thread here: http://businessdirectoryplugin.com/contact/
Thanks for your question! I’m happy to help!
There are a few settings to handle this kind of situation. You’ll find them under Directory > Settings > Email tab.
To use those settings, make sure that the contact email is the author of the listing and that you choose that setting.
You could also CC that address and then apply a filter to the general email address to ignore incoming messages — whichever is easiest.
You can learn more about that in our Knowledge Base here: https://businessdirectoryplugin.com/knowledge-base/email-tab/
I hope that helps!
I’m sorry to hear that you ran into issues with this!
You can find the original files in any downloaded version of the Business Directory Plugin. If you want to replace the original files, You can download the latest lite version of the free BD Plugin here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/business-directory-plugin/ and find that translation file in the languages folder.
However, if you are doing a Spanish translation, we have some new rules for that. You can learn more about that in our Knowledge Base here: https://businessdirectoryplugin.com/knowledge-base/translating-bd-other-language/#Spanish_Translation_Special_Guidelines
Please let me know if you have any other questions or issues!
Hi @comptedev
Thanks for getting back to me on this.
You can add HTML in the Long Description field only to change the color of the text. That is a setting in the field itself. Go to Directory > Form Fields and choose edit, then you will see the box to tick to allow HTML in the field.
Please try that and let me know if you run into more issues.
Hi @comptedev
Thank you for reaching out about this.
Can you please tell me where you are entering this information in the plugin? Is it in a field?
Please let me know.
Hi @rasmoodi
Thanks for that information. We’re wondering if you could do a regex 301 redirect for the URLs? That seems like the easiest way to deal with the problem on the listings you have.
Is that something you’d feel comfortable doing until we can get into this further?
Hi @rasmoodi
Thanks for that information. Can you please give me the word in uppercase letters so I can reproduce the error?
Please let me know.
