Demfilz Business Directory Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
Demfilz Business Directory turns any WordPress site into a full local or niche directory.
Listings
- A dedicated Listings post type with its own categories, locations and tags.
- Rich listing details: phone, website, street address, opening hours, price range, year established, business number, social profiles, a video link and a photo gallery.
- Featured and Verified badges, view counters and optional listing expiry.
- Structured data: every listing prints LocalBusiness JSON-LD (with opening hours and review ratings) for search engines.
Browsing
[dbdir_directory]renders a searchable, filterable, paginated listing grid: keyword search, category and location filters, and sorting by featured, newest, name or rating.- Grid and list layouts: pick a default (or set
layout="list"on the shortcode) and visitors can switch with the grid / list toggle. [dbdir_categories],[dbdir_locations]and[dbdir_featured]build category, location and featured showcases.- Four widgets: directory search, categories, featured listings and recent listings.
- A “Get directions” link on each listing points to Google Maps or OpenStreetMap (your choice, links only, nothing is embedded).
Front-end submissions
[dbdir_submit]lets visitors or logged-in users (your choice) submit listings, with an optional main image upload.- New submissions can be held for review or published immediately.
[dbdir_dashboard]gives owners a dashboard: their listings, statuses, views, ratings and recent enquiries, with front-end editing.- Every public form is protected by a nonce, a honeypot and rate limiting.
Reviews, enquiries and claims
- Visitors can leave star ratings and reviews (one per email per listing), with optional moderation.
- An enquiry form on each listing relays messages to the business by email; the address is never shown publicly. Enquiries are also stored in the admin.
- Logged-in users can claim unclaimed listings; approving a claim transfers ownership and awards the Verified badge.
Admin tools
- Enquiries and Claims screens under the Directory menu.
- CSV export of every listing and CSV import (with automatic category, location and tag creation).
- Flags, rating, views and expiry columns on the listings screen.
- A daily task unpublishes expired listings and emails their owners.
External services
This plugin does not connect to any external service. No data leaves your site. The optional “Get directions” link is a plain link the visitor may click; nothing is loaded from Google or OpenStreetMap by your pages.
