Hi,

Just wondering if there is any way to show vendors from one city on a menu page, or if I need to create categories for each city and then create subcategories for each?

I tried to choose vendor characteristic listing, but even after I save it, I can't select any options on the HikaMarket Options tab.

Regards,

Thanks!

Hello,

If you use the vendor category system, HikaMarket will create automatically the category for the vendor under the one you choose.
Afterwards, you can edit that category to organise them depending their location.

By using an HikaMarket category listing, customer can browse these elements and be redirected to the vendor page while selecting the vendor category (via the HikaMarket display setting).

Hi guys,
about Locations (Cities), from our point of view to create categories for Cities is an unnecessary complication.
When we add a Vendor we locate it by adding his Longitude / Latitude.
So, the simplest way would be to add a "Radius" filtering (from a Longitude/Latitude point, the "x" City Centre for example) to the Vendors listing menu item... just it...
Do you agree ?

Hello,

That kind of feature (radius search) is provided by the component "My Maps Location".

Hi Jerome,
"My Maps Location" component as all other Maps components extensions.joomla.org/category/maps-a-weather/ shows results into a Map (in this case we are speaking about the Vendor Location Longitude/Latitude fields).

But here I'm speaking about another thing, my suggestion is to add Longitude/Latitude + Radius filter to the "HikaMarket » Vendor listing menu item" to show a list of Vendors depending on their Location.

And / or would be useful to be able to add a "HikaMarket » Vendor listing menu item" Custom Fields filter to show a list of Vendors depending on Custom Fields like: City, State, Country .

Basically we are speaking about an "HikaMarket » Vendor listing menu item" enhancement by adding more filters to the menu item...

Hello,

There is already a trigger to interact with the vendor listing ; but indeed, there is no trigger to add some custom content around the vendor listing (before/after) to place some custom interface.
It's still possible to use the Joomla module system to display a module with the vendor listing, but it would require a module+plugin to have the full feature (instead of just one plugin).
