Locations

Updated

Overview

Each location stores one place (an office, property, parking spot, or service area) with contact details in the sidebar, an optional map, a featured image, and page content you build in the editor.

Real-world example

On Steve Brown — Madison Parking, each location's title is the property name, the excerpt holds pricing and availability, and Regions like Central Campus power the filters.

Editor basics

  • Fields: title, page content, featured image, and excerpt
  • No archive page: place the Locations block on a page instead
  • URL slug: Customizer Slug (default locations)
  • Organizing: Regions and Types, both with parent/child levels

Sidebar field groups

Location Information — a map pin (when Enable Mapping is on) and a Map embed code. Older sites may also see image and description fields until they've moved to the featured image and excerpt.

Contact Information — website, address, phone, email

Social Media — Facebook, Twitter/X, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, YouTube

Tips

  • Use the excerpt for the summary on listing cards, such as pricing or availability.
  • Turn on Enable Mapping in the Customizer for interactive Google Maps or OpenStreetMap maps.
