Business Directory Community Add-On Description
The WordPress Business Directory Community AddOn by CreativeMinds allows users to add a new listing to the business directory, claim an existing business which was already listed and manage their listings.
This AddOn is a supplement for the Business Directory Plugin and empowers it by letting the users submit and manage their own listings within the business directory.
Managing New Business Listings
|
When a user submits a new business listing, the admin will receive a notification. Moderate the new listing and approve or reject it. Once approved, the business owner will receive a notification and a password for managing the business page. With the email and password the business owner can manage the business listing without being logged in to the WordPress site or be defined as a WordPress user. This allows a complete separation between business owners and WordPress users. In cases when the business owner forgets his password, near each business page which is assigned to a business owner, a forgot password link will appear allowing business owner to receive a new password to a registered email. |
