    Hi, I want to list 5 - 6 business categories that are based in 10 - 20 different regions of the UK.
    Its a pretty niche list so there may only be about 500 listings in total.
    I would like the site visitors to be able to choose a business type and then a region to get a list of business listing results.
    Is this possible with a single install of Geocraft? Or do I need a multi-site install and list the business types in the menu?
    Also is it possible for me to change theCategories” title to “Regions”

    Hi Gourav,

    Thanks for the reply. I can use your suggestion for plan B, which would be multiple networked installs of Geo.

    But what I am looking for is a way to list businesses in the same line of work that operate in the same region of the uk.

    So for example show a page list of 'Carpenters' in the 'Southwest of England.'

    The main search handles this in some way but the terms used must be exact and also the location search is not savvy about regions. Eg it doesn't know that Birmingham is in the West Midlands or that Birmingham is very close to Dudley.

    I realise the theme is not intended for country wide listings. But my niche is small and I am so close to nailing this that I feel it is just a matter of figuring out how to present the information.

    Any other suggestions would be gratefully received.

    BTW I love the themes, I also bought local tradesman for my own business, It works very well for me.

    Thanks
