When to Use a Listing Page
Use a Listing Page when:
- You want to display multiple locations or resources in one organized view.
- You want users to filter locations by certain fields, such as areas served.
- You want the option to include a map view to enhance navigation and visualization of locations.
Elements of a Listing Page
- Location List: Displays locations based on criteria like titles or teaser text. If an area served is specified on the location type area served field, the location will only show up when that area is searched.
- Map: Optionally, display locations on a map within the listing page.
- Areas Served Field: A critical field on each location page that can list counties served by the location. If set to “None,” the location page will show up in general searches, even if it doesn’t serve a specific area.
How to add a map to a Location Listing page
With location listing page the address has to have the street address first so that it can find it. You can have one that shows the list of locations and maps or just the map alone by selecting the Locations in the List field.
To have the map appear with the Listing under it select “Location” in the list and then click the map box at the Include attachment field.
Location that is within the List field drop down will show the locations. Choose an optional add-on for the "Map" which will show at the top of the listing page.
In order for a location to show up within the listing pages of locations, you will have to add each location page to the site one by one and make sure if you want it to appear in specific area served search results the areas served field needs to be selected
