FAQ

Questions about Easy Directory

Still unsure? Our support team is one ticket away.

Can I use Easy Directory for both a Business Directory and a Tourist Guide?
Yes. Easy Directory is built to handle businesses, tourist destinations, and public places within the same component and database. You can create different menu items scoped by category or listing type to display distinct directory sections.
Which map providers are supported?
Easy Directory supports both Google Maps (using your Google Maps JavaScript API key) and OpenStreetMap using Leaflet. You can select your preferred map provider globally in the component Configuration or override it per layout.
How does the Near Me locator work?
When a visitor clicks Near Me, the browser requests their current GPS coordinates via HTML5 Geolocation. The directory then calculates distances and filters listings within the selected radius (for example 5 km, 10 km, or 25 km).
Can I assign custom fields to specific categories only?
Yes. When creating a custom field, you can choose whether it applies to all listings or only to selected categories or listing types. For example, you can assign Cuisine Type to Restaurants and Beach Surface to Beaches.
Does Easy Directory support Schema.org structured data for SEO?
Yes. Easy Directory automatically generates JSON-LD structured data on single listing pages, including LocalBusiness, Restaurant, and TouristAttraction schemas with address, coordinates, opening hours, and price range.
Can I import listings from a CSV spreadsheet?
Yes. Easy Directory includes a dedicated Import & Export screen where you can download a sample CSV file, upload your spreadsheet, and automatically batch geocode addresses to GPS coordinates.
Does Easy Directory require jQuery?
No. Easy Directory is built using modern vanilla JavaScript and clean CSS variables. It loads via Joomla's native Web Asset Manager with zero jQuery dependencies.
How do I switch between Rounded and Squared corner styling?
In the administrator Configuration under the Design tab, set Corner Style to Rounded or Squared. The change applies instantly across all buttons, cards, filter bars, and modal containers.
