Yellow pages site

[tbone69]

recommend highly the option to set categories or geographies on first level, then the other on second, depending on client's wish

here's an example;

http://www.docshop.com/bariatric_wei...abama/mma.html

they have an additional directory in their structure, 'no', which doesn't need to be there, and some would rather have the category on the second level and the geography on the first level. If you do that though, the cities either become another directory level or an html page name

this specific example is publishing html pages from an sql database using php, so it's very similar to what you already have besides the local yellow page aspect

i'd pay some extra into the kitty to speed it up as well

cheers

Hi there Simon,

I would just like to establish the following;

I am in the process of building a NATIONAL business directory. Is it possible to set up your software so that a person performing a search on the directory would be able to do a regional search, choose a City within that region and then search for a service within that City? Would I have to use your software and create multiple layers within one directory and effectively build a seperate business directory for each major region and manage it as such.

I understand that you offer a paid listing option, but does the software allow for multi level listings and would a client that pays for a premium listing appear ahead of listings that are in a lower paid listing level in a category. Is it possible to offer a premium listing client additional benefits for paying more besides coming up ahead of others when a searcg is done? i.e. mulitiple category listings, images on listings, company logo on listing etc.

In doing the above would it be possible that listings within a paid level, within a search result, could rotate each time a search was done so that you do not get an alphabetical search result every time that only benefits companies who's name begins in the lower alphabetical range?

Perhaps I could ask you to mail me a link to the yellowpages software refered to elsewhere within this post.

Thanx

Brendon

Please provide me some more example by PM.

I would also be very interested in a Yellow Pages style inteface whereby the visitor could enter a category and a location e.g. plumber and Leeds.

Hi

You can now achieve this using our Locations plugin . We have discussed this in the pro forums afaik and basically listings can have two params - category and locations. Visitors can filter listings by any of them.

Hello all

Allow me please to congratulate eSyndiCat to their software. We compared dozens and eSyndiCat is just simply the best ... and then there is a long way to the second. Simon, great achievement.

+ the pre-sale support is fantastic, too. Now we just became a new member of eSyndiCat - Thank you.

When going the first time to downloads, we stumbled across a "business directory" version? But now we cannot find the link anymore. In the forum we discovered many posts about business directory, yellow page style directory but - is there a separate version or did we just misinterpret it?

We are about to develop a very advanced international business directory and the business directory software will come very handy.

In addition, may be ask for some more details about the "Claim a listing" module?

I hope I didn't post this question in the wrong place?!

Have a great day

Welcome to our support forums

Thanks for your feedback, Norbert and welcome to the pro community


There WILL BE a separate version after stable version release. Currently we are focused on the stable version release and once it's ready we will update current package for yellow page style directory. It will be a separate addition to the script. Pro stable version will be released next week. Then it will take up to 2 weeks to adapt that package for a new version.

Yes, we have a claim a listing plugin and it allows a visitor to assign ownership for a listing. For example admin adds a new listing. Later visitor can claim his ownership for that listing and edit information. He needs to verify his ownership and that can be done by placing a code on that site.

More details will be posted in plugins section.
