We are currently at quote stage with edirectory and other website developers. Everyone else pushes a script of a custom built application. We really like the idea of a product that is done and continually upgraded. My only concern right now is finding someone to help with the design of the site and the customization so it has a unique feel. Being based in Australia we do not want a massive time difference. If someone can recommend a deisgn or web design team with experience in e-directory would be great. I am also concerned about having great SEO and read another post about site maps not working correctly. I am wondering if SEO development with Google and Bing is high on the agenda?<br /> Thanks </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=607#post-1994 Sat, 05 May 2012 00:53:14 +0000 Jonot 1994@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>It seems New venture you have much experience in this area. Do you currently have a directory with edirectory. We are looking into building a site with them, and are also worried about poor SEO. </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=630#post-1988 Wed, 02 May 2012 12:36:37 +0000 Carlos B. 1988@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>Thank you very much for your feedback - I'll get your suggestion forwarded to our basecode team in no time.</p> <p>Best regards, </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=629#post-1987 Wed, 02 May 2012 12:33:42 +0000 Carlos B. 1987@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Hello All,</p> <p>You can change that information by editing the footer dynamic content.

Or you cold create an image for the slider, where you "advertise" for reviewing.<br /> Hope it helps.</p> <p>Regards<br /> <a href="http://islampaper.com/">Islamic Wallpapers</a> </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=629#post-1977 Tue, 01 May 2012 15:32:07 +0000 Islamic Names 1977@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Yeah, please is there nobody who knows how to? I was just searching myself, but somehow it seems hidden.<br /> I found it one time, since I changed it myself, but somehow i can't fint it again. </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=530#post-1976 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 20:53:48 +0000 MichealP 1976@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Rather than an email sent out for each deal redeemed, I'd rather see the sponsor area have the ability to view deal details similar to what we see. When we go to Deals &gt; View we can see the person who redeemed a deal, if they posted it on Facebook or Twitter, the date it was redeemed, and the status with a radio button we can click to do something (what I haven't figured out yet). </p> <p>I would like sponsors to see at least the date it was redeemed and the redemption code. Then they know how successful that deal was, and I don't have to go in and collect that information to mail to them each month. </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=627#post-1975 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 07:22:33 +0000 Joey 1975@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Hi guys</p> <p>I'm really glad to hear this. Like I said, edirectory is the BEST directory software out there by a LONG way. So, I'm really pleased to hear that it's constantly being developed.</p> <p>If there's any chance of perhaps blogging a bit more frequently, I think this would be a really valuable way for you guys to let your customers - and prospective customers - know a little bit more about what's happening.</p> <p>Keep up the good work!</p> <p>Cheers</p> <p>Joe </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=626#post-1974 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 13:51:38 +0000 MichealP 1974@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Thanks Jimmy. </p> <p>I appreciate you telling me where you edited your information, and providing that link was a huge help. It allowed me to see exactly what you were talking about. </p> <p>I'll contact support about it, because my sponsor area has nothing in it. When I click the sponsor heading it says "Found 0 records." So it looks like there is something wrong with my install, because I have nothing to edit, and there is no feature in there that would allow me to create content like there is in the custom pages section.</p> <p>I'm glad that you were here to help and give me advice. Now on a side note for anyone from the edirectory team, it is VERY disappointing that I am spending money on this service with you and all my answers came from another member. It's been 4 days since my first post asking this question and not once has a someone from support offered an assistance in here on this. When this is a spot you are using to offer assistance o your members, someone should be looking at this several times a day and offering assistance.</p> <p>Thanks a lot for your help Jimmy,<br /> Mike </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=630#post-1973 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 12:48:23 +0000 brette912 1973@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Ok, I found it...kinda by accident though. I think there is room for some improvement on how that works. I think that defaulting to something that what will not pass the field check whenever the listing is created if they at least do not drop the list down and see the different options would work better. As it is now, it's very easy to skip and possibly lose money by not letting the end user know that they can purchase an extended directory listing. </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=630#post-1971 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 02:26:09 +0000 brette912 1971@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>I understand Listing Types and I know how to build them. What I don't know is how to make the additional fields display on the create or edit listing form. The preview shows them but I can't get them working. The way I understand it is when someone adds a category (i.e. Restaurants) to their listing, if there is a Listing Type that has that category associated with it, the additional fields appear on the Edit Listing page. The documentation gets you through the 'how to create listing types' but falls short on explaining how you implement them with this version of the product. What I am looking for is something that says "Now that you have created your Listing Types, here is a step by step guide on how you get them to show up". </p> <p>Thanks for the help! </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=629#post-1970 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 22:15:04 +0000 brette912 1970@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>I've looked everywhere but cannot seem to find where I can change the Facebook &#38; LinkedIn account from Arca Solutions to my accounts? Can someone please direct me to the correct setting? </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=579#post-1969 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 14:39:10 +0000 brette912 1969@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>I agree that I don't think the full name of the listing owner nor the reviewer should be displayed. I would rather have the first name and last initial displayed or maybe a user name/display name that is created during the sign up process. I think that some folks (myself included) may be more hesitant to review knowing their full name is displayed. To go even further, I think that the full name should not even be displayed on the user profile. I've looked at other directory sites and it seems that this is the norm. Even this forum protects the full name of the user. </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=626#post-1968 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 13:17:23 +0000 jimmy2t 1968@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Hey,</p> <p>I did it not using a custom page, but by editing the existing sponsor dynamic content itself here:<br /> <a href="http://demodirectory.com/sitemgr/content/member.php" rel="nofollow">http://demodirectory.com/sitemgr/content/member.php</a></p> <p>cheers </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=626#post-1967 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 20:30:14 +0000 MichealP 1967@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Hi Jimmy,</p> <p>Thanks for the response. I would be good with doing it that way too, but I can't see the option anywhere to limit a custom page to the sponsor backend. Can you give me a quick explanation on what you did? Like where I need to look to do that myself or something. </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=628#post-1966 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 19:09:18 +0000 brette912 1966@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Thanks Carlos!

If you're not an owned license user, I suggest you to submit a case to support at edirectory.com - I believe they can fix that for you.</p> <p>cheers </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=628#post-1962 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 18:15:41 +0000 brette912 1962@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Whenever the form pops up from clicking the "Email to Friend", the text boxes are very hard to see, if not invisible. The form background is white and the textboxes do not have the 3-D effect but rather flat which makes them blend into the background. I didnt even see them the first time, I just clicked onto the form and noticed that something had the cursor focus. I was then able to click into the other fields to input the data. The "Additional message" box looks as it should. Is there a way to edit the background color of these pop-up forms so that all of the fields can be seen? Or, make all of the fields on these forms have the 3-D effect.</p> <p>Thanks in advance!! </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=369#post-1959 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 08:26:04 +0000 Islamic Names 1959@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>I also did not understand what you exactly mean.<br /> Actually it is prooven that even if you land on the first page for a specific keyword, you will now see the wanted results as long as you do not hit the Nr. 1 on top of google for exactly that keyword.</p> <p>Is this what you mean?</p> <p>At admins: Please delete the spam post, thanks :) </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=627#post-1955 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 16:55:29 +0000 edirectory 1955@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>Hi Joe,</p> <p>As Carlos indicated ---- we're in the midst of migrating our support systems.</p> <p>We do 3 or 4 small releases each calendar year, with one, maybe two bigger 'blockbuster' releases within that same time spam. Apology for the lack of activity on the blog to make these announcements, no excuses there. For some of our smaller scale releases that entail minor additions, small changes or perhaps bug fixes, we don't usually make a big deal about (press releases or blog posts). </p> <p>eDirectory is a true software solution -- not a script you might buy off of the internet for $50 or $75 and because of that, you can be rest assured that we will continue to grow and develop on our product, as well as provide you with a support team of 10-15 reps, a custom development team of equal size, and an ever growing base code team that works only on developing and enhancing the product. In short, we've never been more dedicated to growing our product and developing new products as well. Our servers are hosted at a tier 1 facility and are monitored 24/7. This is what separates eDirectory, the software company, from a script you may purchase off of the web. </p> <p>Please feel free to give me a call directory if you have any questions at all.

I have noticed that when creating FAQ's, there is a feature that allows you to set them to front, sponsors or site managers. I want to know if we can do something like that with our navigation menus?</p> <p>What I want to do is have a menu item that only shows up to sponsors when they are logged in. I want to create some videos that walk the sponsor through creating their listings and their deals, but I don't want regular visitors to see them. I also want to create a user manual inside the sponsors area that regular visitors do not see. </p> <p>Is there a feature that allows this that I am missing somewhere. I am running this on a hosted account, not an owned account, so I do not have access to change any of the coding myself. </p> http://www.edirectory.com/forum/topic.php?id=424#post-1948 Sun, 22 Apr 2012 08:50:36 +0000 Islamic Names 1948@http://www.edirectory.com/forum/ <p>I think for SEO purposes subdomains are the best option.
